Review of Risk (2017) by Darren W — 28 Aug 2017

Portrait of the narcissist's narcissist, the intelligent but profoundly misguided Julian Assange. This strangely edited, often inaudible, film mimics its subject in wanting to be taken incredibly seriously.

But just because you punctuate your film with intertitles and portentous music and get to include footage of Trump, Clinton H and Snowden doesn't mean you've metamorphosed into Errol Morris or Werner Herzog.

And this film certainly gets no closer to understanding Mr Wikileaks.
