Where to Watch Mercury Rising
- ርልዪረAugust 1, 2025Action Star Bruce Willis stars in this cracking chase movie. "Willis" plays an FBI Agent tasked with protecting "Simon", a nine year old Autistic Boy who is targeted by Government Assassin's after he cracks a Top Secret Government Code. The onscreen Chemistry between the leads is believable, Miko Hughes is terrific as "Simon", and Alec Baldwin is a perfect on screen foil for Bruce Willis. Indeed it's easily one of the better Acting performances of Bruce Willis entire career. The movie is taut, with some genuinely tense action sequences. Overall "Mercury Rising" is a little hidden gem of an action movie that definitely deserves more love and respect than it gets. It's not big budget, big on scale, or big on Special Effects, but it's big on enjoyment, and from a thriller, you can't ask for anything more than that. Terrific.
