A formal review step where you accept or reject the code, yes, is always there because of lack of trust.
Informal reviews can have a lot of different shapes, and provide a lot of different benefits. But anything that is a stop-the-process activity is there because you expect quality problems from the earlier steps.
(That said, no good developer trusts oneself. So if you don't have anything on your process that makes you trustworthy, lack of trust is the correct approach.)
