Overly long but amiable suspense-thriller thanks to the charms of Mel Gibson (re-teaming with Lethal Weapon franchise director Richard Donner) and Julia Roberts with Patrick Stewart making for an okay villain. This is one I've seen a couple times and each viewing has pretty much been the same: entertaining but also unremarkable. 3.0/5

Well... this was fun. I don't think you can say anything better about a movie. Conspiracy Theory was fun. You sit down and watch it, and you are going to have a fun time, you are going to be entertained. It's a great blend of moderate action and comedic suspense. The plot twists are deep enough to be interesting and light enough to be entertaining in the darker aspects of comedy. The characters, well, the characters are the very definition of the phrase, "he's a real character isn't he?" Mel Gibson is fun to watch in this, he plays a character that is tormented, broken, and still endlessly amusing. You really can't get better than a movie that is fun to watch.

Great cast, great acting, and its funny in a clever way. My main criticism is that the plot quickly devolves into a generic 90s action movie with car chases and stuff...Its ok popcorn cinema, but nothing memorable. They could have made more out of the conspiracy angle...
