Critic Reviews of "Mercy (2009)"
Chicago Sun-TimesJuly 22, 2010I have a problem with movies about men who women cannot resist.
Los Angeles TimesMay 06, 2010Mercy is a romantic drama with some good qualities -- among them earnestness and strong performances -- but not enough to completely overcome the strain of its clichés.
New York TimesApril 30, 2010Scott Caan delivers a complex portrait of a womanizing bully with a cream-puff heart.
AV ClubApril 29, 2010With Glenn offscreen for huge sections of the film, Mercy devolves into yet another navel-gazing drama about a glib cad redeemed by the love of a good woman.
Time OutApril 28, 2010Caan can't seem to play up his strengths. He's a raw talent who needs an editor for his scripts and a strong hand behind the camera guiding him. Mercy gives our guy neither.
New York PressMay 05, 2010There's a frayed romanticism to Caan's script that belies his swaggering air of machismo; this is a man who understands the price of love, even if Johnny can't, or more probably, won't.
Boxoffice MagazineApril 30, 2010Caan's decision to cast real-life pals such as Jane Fonda's son Garity, McDermott and John Boyd (as a blabbering lovesick friend)--not to mention his father--makes sense, but the decision to leave out the heart of his narrative doesn't.
NewsBlazeApril 29, 2010A sentimental sitdram about whether or not a long-distance liaison between an artist and his worst critic has a fighting chance of blossoming into love.
Slant MagazineApril 27, 2010Don't let Mercy's title fool you, as there's no clemency here, from cliché or pretentiousness.
Hollywood & FineApril 27, 2010Caan's touchingly clueless longing makes Mercy stand out as an adult romantic drama that earns its hankies
