Brace yourself for a cinematic rollercoaster with Chris Pratt's latest venture, the sci-fi thriller 'Mercy'. The film's Rotten Tomatoes rating is a brutal wake-up call, but is there more to this story than meets the eye?
'Mercy' hits cinemas soon, and the initial reviews are in. With a mere 18% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, it's safe to say this movie has divided critics. But here's where it gets controversial: some reviews praise the film's ingenuity, while others label it 'baffling' and 'dumb'.
Let's dive into the reviews and see what all the fuss is about.
The Independent calls it a 'baffling piece of work', comparing it to Hollywood's iconic police state dystopias. IGN goes further, describing it as a 'headache-inducing' experience. HeyUGuys takes a more neutral stance, saying it's 'not aggressively bad, just really dumb'.
The Guardian offers a more positive take, calling it 'ingenious and watchable', with 'cheeky twists'. Variety agrees, saying it's 'better than you expect'. However, The Daily Beast disagrees, calling it the 'dreariest and goofiest film of the year'.
IndieWire's review suggests a lack of passion and effort, describing it as a 'first draft'.
So, is 'Mercy' a must-see or a miss? The reviews are mixed, but one thing's for sure: it's sparked a debate.
