Just Mercy is een onderhoudende film hoewel het vermaak grotendeels voortkomt uit de sterke dialogen en de wijze waarop het indrukwekkende verhaal wordt verteld.

Just Mercy does have all the hallmarks of Oscar bait, yet is oddly absent from the list this year.

Though it comes out swinging with heavy hands, Just Mercy steadies itself in time to become an effective portrait of systemic injustice. You will be moved, but with a force that is muted by simple convention. Lees meer

Just Mercy lacks fresh blood. There’s something about it that will make you feel indifferent, which should have been the other way around. Lees meer
