Assumption of Risk is a curious blend of mystery and sci-fi that dives deep into the murky waters of human greed. The pacing can feel a bit uneven at times, with moments of tension punctured by quieter introspection. The atmosphere is dark and brooding, underscored by practical effects that keep it grounded despite its lofty themes. The film grapples with life, death, and the lengths to which people will go for profit, which gives it a chilling resonance. Performances lean into a kind of anxious urgency that suits the narrative nicely. It’s a fascinating exploration of technology’s potential to skew morality, and while it may not be mainstream, it definitely carves out its own niche within the genre.
