Review of Just Mercy (2019) by Vince Mancini for Uproxx — 09 Jan 2020
Just Mercy is a “true story” encased in amber. Its politics are inert. The story only works as escapism, where we clap at hearing the least dangerous of truths spoken aloud and once again entertain the delusion that one man calling bullshit on a corrupt system is enough to defeat it.
These days that only seems to work in superhero movies.
