Just Mercy Ratings & Reviews
- Len18 mei 2025It is sad that not that long ago Alabama was so prejudice and corrupt.
- Hakihiko28 december 2024A Solid, Emotionally Resonant Legal Drama "Just Mercy" is a compelling legal drama based on the true story of Bryan Stevenson and his efforts to free wrongfully convicted individuals, particularly Walter McMillian, a man sentenced to death for a crime he didn't commit. Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton and starring Michael B. Jordan as Stevenson and Jamie Foxx as McMillian, the film showcases powerful performances, particularly from Foxx, whose portrayal of a broken man unjustly imprisoned is heart-wrenching. The film's narrative effectively highlights the flaws in the criminal justice system, the persistence required to challenge systemic racism, and the emotional toll on those involved. While the story is undeniably important and inspiring, the film at times feels a bit formulaic, with some moments of dialogue and pacing following a predictable path. Additionally, while it tackles heavy topics, the film doesn't dive as deep into some aspects of the legal and personal complexities that could have made the story even more impactful. Ultimately, Just Mercy is an emotionally resonant film that sheds light on the injustices that persist in the American justice system. It may not be a groundbreaking piece of cinema, but its strong performances and timely message make it a worthwhile watch. Solid storytelling, acting, and importance, though it could have benefited from a more nuanced exploration of its themes.
