Time Is Running Out To Watch One of the Smartest Mystery Thrillers of the 2010s




Earlier this year, Chris Prattand Rebecca Ferguson starred in the sci-fi mystery movie Mercy. Directed by Timur Bekmambetov, the film received poor reviews and failed to recoup its reported $60 million budget at the box office. It was, however, a solid hit on Prime Video some weeks later, which might have been the plan all along. Taking place in the near future, Mercy follows a police officer who is arrested for the murder of his wife and put on trial before an artificial intelligence judge. The movie utilized the "screenlife" format, where the entire story unfolds on digital screens. Bekmambetov was at the forefront of this format, which had its moment some years ago but, like the found-footage phase, was later discarded by the industry in favor of shinier trends.
