Mercy
This film came out in 2016 and back then AI was just a futuristic thought. However in todays world all we ever hear about is AI taking over this and that and how it can do more harm that good. We I was lucky enough to find this movie on PRIME and watched it. What was only a fleeting thought back in ‘16 is starting to come to life in 2026……scary!
“90 minutes to prove your innocence or face execution.”
You can’t turn the TV on without hearing about AI today. The whole premise of this film is how society would operate if the courts were controlled by an AI Judge.
I can honestly say that I was initially skeptical about a plot centered around a person in a chair but ultimately found the concept well-executed and the story genuinely strong.
I found the film’s use of AI to be spot on as compared to todays knowledge of AI. This was a timely staging for this film to show up on the main page of PRIME Streaming
Its a fast pace film with plenty of thrilling and unpredictable moments. Coupled with a few real surprises its definitely a worthy evening thriller.
Even thought its not entirely original I found it enjoyable and emotionally engaging.
IMDb 6.2/10
Stars: Chris Pratt - Rebecca Ferguson - Kali Reis
