Mercy's Girl (2018)

Mercy's Girl

10 reviews
7/10

Depressing, but very thought provoking

Emily Lape is compelling to watch, as she struggles with her mother, her sexuality and job issues. I wanted to turn it off, but my interest in the main character was too compelling. Another Netflix film worth your while.

Skip this movie

I should have known from the opening scene that the movie was going to drag on, trying earnestly to be brooding and deep.

I found myself fast forwarding through the majority of the film.

This film made me want to press charges against Emily Lape

Both impressive and disappointing

I liked this movie, but I felt it was rather slow-moving, and I was disappointed that it didn't deal more with certain issues, particularly the sexual assault by the man in the bar. I think the movie - and the main characters, and their relationship - would have benefited from a discussion between them about this.

On the other hand, considering both the budget and the multitude of roles which Emily Lape undertook in the making of this movie, I think it's a very impressive achievement. The cinematography is excellent, and overall the content of the film is engaging and moving. I'm looking forward to seeing future works by Ms. Lape.

mesmerized by Emily Lape's enterprise

Accolades to Emily Lape for her outstanding acting, writing, and directing in this movie-I'm hoping to see more films that reflect her sensibility, creativity, and depth! I was also impressed by Alison Hixon's portfolio; she was a fantastic addition to the movie. The camera operator did an excellent job as well-I really appreciated how the film was shot, along with its realistic ending that beautifully blends hope with sadness. I also enjoyed the flow and pace of the movie, which captured the ephemeral, fleeting moments of our inner lives, often confined to our bedrooms, that ultimately shape us so profoundly. Emily Lape deserves more opportunities and recognition!

With a much less budget try Alexandra Swarens, his works are far better

This kind of feature film falls within the category of films that make me hate screenwriters directors and interpreters, it is totally disgust and useless that I hope they no longer do other works of the genre, even if I know that other works so horrible will still be done unfortunately, then what what It makes me angry even more and that the most disgust they always keep it last so you have to see it by force, you have to see this kind of senseless sudden sort, they seem almost self -harm, I absolutely do not recommend this feature film at least you don't want to see a meaningless work!!!!!!!
