Mercy-8/10
With AI becoming such a common theme these days, how terrifying would it be if AI was used in the court of law? Well, this movie answers that question. To stop criminals from getting away with their crimes, an AI is created to act as the jury, judge, and Executioner. All criminals are given 90 minutes and all the available resources and evidence they need to prove their innocence. If they don’t, they’re executed. One day, a detective (who is a strong supporter of the AI program) is put on trial for the murder of his wife. Now he is given the same choice as any other criminal, find evidence that proves he’s innocent. This movie offers suspense, action and a terrifying look at how AI can be used in the future.
Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die-6/10
This movie is just as weird as the title itself. Basically, a man who claims he’s from the future walks into a restaurant and says that he’s looking for a team to help save the future. He also claims that he’s done this hundreds of times over. After picking up some patrons, he and his new group set off on a dangerous mission. This will be the man’s 117th attempt. The previous ones failed. This movie is just crazy, strange and weird. If you’re considering watching this movie, just brace yourself, because watching this movie will be an experience.
