Mercy (2026): When Justice Stops Caring if It’s Wrong

Justice doesn’t need to hate you to destroy you. It just needs to stop caring whether it’s wrong.

Mercy is not a movie about an evil artificial intelligence. It’s a movie about what happens when we confuse procedure with truth. Set in a near-future Los Angeles that feels uncomfortably close to our own, it explores a justice system where sentences aren't delivered by people in a room, but by an automated process designed to be faster, cleaner, and "objective."

The irony is in the name. Because this system doesn’t show mercy. It shows certainty.
