Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Take off your thinking caps and toss 'em in a corner, 'cuz you won't need 'em when you're watching this deliriously dumb thriller from 1997. Bruce Willis stars as a demoted FBI agent who comes to the aid of an autistic boy whose mind holds a potentially deadly secret. It seems that by gazing on a puzzle magazine and making order out of a hidden system of numbers, the 9-year-old autistic boy (Miko Hughes) has accidentally deciphered a sophisticated top-secret government code. This makes him the prime target of the ruthless bureaucrat (Alec Baldwin, in one of his silliest roles), and Willis comes to the rescue. This formulaic thriller sets up this plot with a lot of entertaining urgency, but you can't give any thought to Mercury Rising or the whole movie collapses under the weight of its own illogic and nonsense. The redeeming values are the performances of Willis, young Hughes, and newcomer Kim Dickens as a woman who agrees (perhaps too easily, it seems) to aid Willis in his plot to outmaneuver the bad guys. Mercury Rising is not a waste of time compared to other formulaic thrillers, but its entertainment value depends on how much you enjoy being smarter than the movie. --Jeff Shannon

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Mercury Rising - An Outstanding Movie!
Bruce Willis again shows his great range of acting ability! It is a great thriller! If you haven't seen this film I strongly recommend it. The supporting actors and actresses do a fantastic job too! As a lover of movies I would also recommend this film for seeing again and again. Now for an interesting book: A Night in the Tropics (Book 1) (Hardcover)



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A good movie
Excellent movie, good plot, able to follow, action packed. Perfect visual experience on hd dvd.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A very Good and Emotionally Charged Action Film
This is an action film with a lot of emotion behind it. It has a real heart felt story that questions plausibility and true credibility at times but it really hits home as it evokes genuine sentiment and feeling through a brutal world we now live in. This to date is the last great action film staring Bruce Willis. His performance of the dedicated civil servant doing what is right against all odds is admirable. His adversary Alec Baldwin stands for all that is wrong with a system that is supposed ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - What ever happened to Kim Dickens?
Mercury Rising brings to the screen the story of an FBI agent who takes it upon himself to protect an orphaned autistic boy whom the NSA wants dead for having cracked a multi-million dollar government code.
What is important to note is that Alec Baldwin's words in the film do ring true when he says that America needs a secret code to protect her from espionage both from her foes as well as her allies! He is rightfully referring to a specific country in particular, small and yet extremely ... Read More
