'The Conspiracy' (2012) promised much and delivered disappointing results. Basically these two American guys begin a documentary about a local conspiracy theory nut and discover that he's not wrong about a very private club for world leaders which sets global policy. They attempt to infiltrate it and complications ensue. It started off well but ran aground about a third of the way in, whereupon the plot holes and predictability of the storyline became painful distractions. It was all far too easy for the guys to get inside the club and blindingly obvious what was going to happen. Ah well, things don't always do what they say on the tin. This 'shaggy dog story' was like one of those notoriously misleading 'serving suggestions' on a pack of risotto; you order what looks to be a banquet and you get served up a snack.
