VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

John Seal The world of right-wing conspiracy theorist and alternative medicine enthusiast Alex Jones is examined in this non-judgemental but revealing documentary. Jones, who runs the website Prisonplanet.com, believes that 9/11 was an inside job, that the participants in the annual Bilderberg conference are our real masters, and that the gubmint is coming for us so we'd better buy lots of guns and ammo, but New World Order doesn't examine the merits or demerits of each theory, preferring to concentrate on the obsessive behavior of its subject. As director Luke Myer has noted, this isn't a film designed to make people believe one theory or another: it's a film about those who resolutely reside far outside the parameters of the dominant paradigm and, right or wrong, have the courage to tell the world what they think it needs to hear.

Heislegend There's one of two ways to look at movies like this. From the mindset of an objective viewer...preferably someone who knows little to nothing about who these people really are. Then there's people who will watch it having already reached a conclusion and want something to "support" their views. The objective viewer will likely come away feeling sorry for the film's participants. The other type will scream and yell "I told you!!" as the film gets twisted up in their own warped sense of reality. People can believe whatever they want and that's just fine by me so I'm certainly not knocking anyone, but how can you call a movie a documentary when (at least) half of it's audience has already drawn their own conclusions before even popping it in? To make myself perfectly clear: do conspiracy theories exist? Almost certainly. Is Alex Jones the best guy to get your info from concerning them? Absolutely not. The guy's been shown time and again to be an absolute nutjob who will do and say anything in the name of sensationalism. Hell, he even managed to pull Charlie Sheen down with him. Plus Jones, much like Jeff Rense, has a whole league of followers just waiting to call you ignorant or oblivious if you disagree, but will blindly accept about 90% of what these guys say as fact. But oh well...all is not lost. If you never wind up with a significant amount of power you'll probably never hear of these guys. If you do gain said power, they will attempt to tear you down regardless of your political affiliations or belief system about virtually anything. They will go over every minute detail of your life and claim you are NWO/Illuminati/Freemason/Knights Templar/Bilderberg/Trilateral Commision/Mastercard preferred customer until some idiot believes it. That, or they'll just flat out lie. And someone decided to make these idiots the subject of a "documentary"? Don't waste your time unless you're already a follower or unless you like to watch people unwittingly humiliate themselves. So, in a sense, this film is not unlike an episode of cops. A bunch of people acting like morons and unable to figure out what anyone else sees wrong with it.

Chai Mason Just finished watching this after finding out about it searching for some films to download on a DVD info site. Immediately piqued my interest. This author started being obsessive with all kinds of conspiracy theories about a year ago, and now starting to cool off a bit. Because of the chaotic nature of the sheer volume of information, I've not been active in the slightest, except sometimes in conversation. Previously I was completely ignorant - I didn't watch TV, I wasn't really aware of the 'alternative media' or conspiracy theories. I've never been a reader of newspapers. I heard some of my friends talking about David Icke YEARS ago, not in a positive way, had no idea who he was nor did I bother finding out. The same friend had mentioned about some book about the NASA moon landing being a hoax but then it didn't really interest me. Due to not taking notice of history or current affairs I wasn't aware of much, that's a consequence of my personal development, or lack of. I was super socialised, like most of the people in my place of Birth, England, and the UK. In 2007 I met a guy at the 'Sunrise' Festival, he was talking about money and banking - he gave me his myspace (called 'what is money and where does it come from') It had all the classic stuff, Aaron Russo, Gordon Maxwell. A few months later a slightly down-and-out and under confident Russian man in London gave me a DVD of Alex Jones (ENDGAME), and I another who had shown me early 911 documentaries. They didn't mean much. However Jones' film caught my attention and I started reading about eugenics - I got Edwin Black's seminal book 'War Against the Weak' in fact. I'd also come across his video for his book 'IBM and the Holocaust' in 2003 on guerrilla news network (.com). Eventually I threw myself into almost 24/7 reading on the internet, ordering books, watching videos, reading all kind of wacky websites - we all know they are all out there. Then eventually things started to gel and patterns started to emerge. I went to see Icke talk in Brixton in May 2008, and I pretty much fell for his spiel. I don't like him anymore but I OVERSTAND what it's about due to that process of investigation. We humans are very susceptible to suggestion, especially if we are looking for answers. In hindsight, I'm glad I went through those early stages, and later stages, and now, my knowledge is starting to galvanise, to crystallise. Icke is for sure right about some of the historical stuff he talks about, on a basic level, but the new age and paranormal can be a bit much for this material plane. So after a week or so of Icke - still utterly convinced that there were crazy unseen forces controlling humanity from within, I moved onto Alan Watt - he would be interesting to make a film about. I listened to hundreds of his podcasts over many many months and ended up extremely lacklustre, paranoid and obsessive. That guy (the best description I found on some forum was 'the thinking man's David Icke'.) is amazing in his endless knowledge and information. However he is profoundly manipulative with his conclusions. I believed it. I saw that he was using similar techniques to cult or new age religious leaders. However, some of the details he talks about, using unique language not like other 'truthers' are DEMONSTRABLY true, as he cites UN and other think tank and NGO documents, and papers and books by history's greatest movers and shakers in the Anglo American establishment. As a consequence I now have an enormous interest in history, the occult, psychology, political science and economics - and I know a great deal about them from a non-conventional perspective which I would never have had, had I not gone through this phase as a 'conspiracy theorist'.This film here is mainly focusing on Jones, who I am constantly in two minds about but eventually, I think he's genuine.The interviews are sensitively done and are quite intimate. It's easy to see how a viewer could be drawn toward pity on their behalf. It's a shame because realistically, once one goes through the obsession of a 'theorist', some of the things you learn are completely and demonstrably true. It becomes obvious and this is a little worrying. Conversely also, the 'dominant reality' to which we subscribe is largely contrived. However the overall behaviour and tactics and psychology of the 'truther' are not compatible with those of us who live in the 'dominant reality'. I have TRULY discovered the meaning of Orwell's term 'doublethink' because I now DO it for the first time, on the daily. Does that make me schizophrenic? Not necessarily *phew* Explaining how I think is not easy at all, I've not learned to articulate the perpetual irreconcilability. All I can do is advise you, the reader to develop critical thinking and to not subscribe to the toxicity of the dominant reality nor to become a religious devotee of unsubstantiated paranoid delusions. It's a fine line. Great film, lets see more like it. Start learning and kNOWING instead of having your convictions inculcated into you through osmosis (mass media). Other information on these subjects can be found on a podcast debunking conspiracy theories available on iTunes/audio podcasts/history/'the conspiracy sceptic' and I also listened to an short LSE lecture (LSE website) by David Aaronovich about his book 'Voodo Histories'. I do recommend a few listens to Alan Watt at Cutting Through the Matrix (.com) - it's an amazing source of history but be careful with it. It's up to the individual and their philosophy if they have one whether the events are utterly manipulated, inevitable, chaotic, or a combination of all of them. For those who care and are smart they will develop a process of individuation, a philosophy and begin to see with eyes unclouded.

lastliberal The idea of "The New World Order" is nothing new. Conspiracy theorists have been shouting about "One-World Government" for a long time. There are a lot of people who really believe that the UN or some organization like it will control the World one day.We have heard about the Trilateral Commission, the Council on Foreign Relations, or the Bilderberg Group. The so-called "mainstream media" has ignored the "threat" according to the theorists, but with the Internet we now have an opportunity to pass the word along.The constant wars, the current economic crisis, and the quest for oil has just fanned the flames of the theorists. Did our government cause 9/11? Did they kill Kennedy? Is the Washington Monument a Masonic power source? Waco? Katrina? Ruby Ridge? Are they all part of some conspiracy? But, this documentary is not about the theories, but about the people who spend their time promoting them. You can dismiss them as crackpots, but they are real people. What drives them to do this? Is it the same as those that ring your doorbell with bibles or religious tracts? Is it any different than those of us who scream that you gotta see this movie? The people in this film seem sincere. Are they just dupes of an angry Austin radio talk show host (Alex Jones)? As much as they try to make these characters real, it is still hard not to laugh at them, especially when they start telling their followers to buy guns and ammunition.It was very informative and no matter which side of the fence you are on, it is worth knowing about.
