  Errol Morris is the best there is but this feels more the work of the algorithm than the auteur. He's made some great documentaries about the subjectivity of truth but this feels like it indulges conspiracy theory rather than being about conspiracy theory. He just about saves it by the end but this isn't what we need right now.
