When Chris Pratt's bumbling Mercy begins, it seems like director Timur Bekmambetov is going to make some valid, if low-hanging fruit points, about the surveillance state, government overreach and AI's ballooning sphere of influence. But by the end of the film's 100 or so confounding minutes, it has more or less endorsed AI, mostly because Bekmambetov and writer Marco van Belle clearly find all of this new technology kind of cool.
