Ouch that was painful. It was ok for the first half and then utter UTTER shiiiiite for the rest. A very special ops guy infiltrates the bad guys after having his pick from a huge armoury of weapons and he goes with a half loaded pistol? Then he has a sword fight with chief bad guy using long shards of glass that don't break. If you are 10 years old you might think it believable but I suggest the director and editor go back to film school.

This is a fascinating movie, it delivers. Worth the watch. It does drop some clues.

decently well written, acted, and produced, but it's quite a bit less deep than some reviews might lead you to believe. it's basically just a very conventional representation of illuminati or illuminati adjacent content, and the character i enjoyed the most disappears very early on.

This film is no Citizen Kane but as a B horror film it fully delivers. It is well directed, has an interesting plot and the acting is not bad either. I really enjoyed this film and recommend it to any horror lover.

This is a surprising little gem that will likely go unnoticed to most. The concept is a very interesting one that touches on the subject that has been going on since the age of time: who controls the world? First two thirds are really solid but the final act with the cult revelation is rough at times due to the fuzziness of the camera and blurred faces. A mostly engaging film with a lot to explore

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Wow I've glossed over this many times over the years and just finally gave it a shot and it is a very effective found footage style horror very much is the same like of the Last Exorcism and Paranormal Activity 3. Not as good as those but most definitely worth a watch.

There isn't much more here than a killer premise and a memorably creepy finale, but that is one beauty of the found-footage genre: These movies often don't need much more than that to be successful.

A satisfying found-footage spooker.

The Conspiracy does more with a found-footage conceit than any horror movie since The Blair Witch Project.

What Culture

As both a compelling examination of conspiracy theorists and a unique found footage film, The Conspiracy lays firm groundwork before delivering a tense, dynamic third act.

Rated: 3.5/5

Projected Figures

Like any good conspiracy theorist (or perhaps Grand Master of the Universe), MacBride rewrites the cosmos, forcing us either to buy the particular reality that he's peddling, or to risk being cast as collusive shills or sacrificial 'sheeples'.
