Conspiracy Theory (1997)

Cast: Mel Gibson (Jerry Fletcher), Julia Roberts (Alice Sutton), Patrick Stewart (Dr. Jonas), Cylk Cozart (Agent Lowry)
For complete cast, see IMDb's Conspiracy Theory page.

As someone who's a big fan of Noam Chomsky, the whole Conspiracy Theory movie immediately appealed to me. I worried that they had perhaps shown too much in the previews, but I was very happy to find out that most of the movie was kept out of the previews and the actual content was even better than we expected from the previews. Mel Gibson, Julia Roberts, and the rest of the cast do a wonderful job. They manage to get the audience interested in the conspiracy and make you believe for a couple hours, even if you don't generally think that there is something to the idea of conspiracy theories.

Remember - it's not paranoia if there's really someone after you. (Or, as Jerry says, "I'm only paranoid because they want me dead.")

Grade: A-
