this movie just try to create an atmosphere full of conspiracy and paranoia and so on . it simply try to shock . it not the way a splatter horror picture be shock people and but finally it the same cheap level . this movie do not deliver many explanation for the strange thing go on in it . but it deliver a couple of unintentionally funny or implausible scene like the boat explosion with only one survivor ( surprise and surprise who the survivor be . ) and the stereotype bar brawl between the lead character and the sheriff assistant or the plane scene with minute full of . represent nothing . one long shot after the other . you see stewardess do their job . it look like you should start be scar about what go on and but you aren not . and after that plane scene the overlong style be still kill this movie more and more and slowly until it end . only because nothing happens or thing happen very slowly a movie isn not excite or creates suspense automatically . on the other hand the movie steadily try to submit to audience there be some very serious thing go on out there behind that what we call reality and but the problem be and the movie itself make it difficult to take it serious . i really enjoy all the president men and but this one here be so hypothetic it can never work without a good style of narration which do deliver explanation and creates suspense in an interesting way but not with a couple of overlong scene in a row . i like the way hume cronyn and especially old western veteran jim davis play their part and the manipulative scene in which frady be confront with a collage of picture and keywords and but this be nearly everything about this movie that be interest to me . it start quite well and but after the murder case which lead frady into his investigation and in other word represent after 15 or 20 minute and the movie be get bumptious . there be dozen of more informative conspiracy movie . after have see this one you just ask yourself represent what have i be tell by this movie .
