Chris says: “Matt DeHart, a ‘hacktivist’ charged with a crime he claims he didn’t commit is a fascinating subject for a doc/expose, but this format, heavy on reenactments and shocking reveals, does him no favors. In the tradition of CITIZENFOUR, the filmmakers get so close to Matt and his parents that their attempt to remain objective ends up seeming wishy-washy to the point of utter frustration. Even though he is listed as a producer, the best ‘Errol Morris’ film is still an Errol Morris film. 2.5 cats
