Rating: Summary: The mercury steadily rises in Mercury Rising Review: I can't believe that "Mercury Rising" isn't more popular of a movie. A 9 year old autistic boy cracks the national security code that everybody thought was impossible to break. Art (Bruce Willis) takes it upon himself to protect the kid from some government officials who want the boy dead. There might be some minor gaps in the storyline of "Mercury Rising," but nothing that does anything to hurt the movie in my opinion. This movie shows how great of an actor Bruce Willis really is and the boy does a great job too. The effects are also well done and the movie has good suspense. If you like good suspense movies, I recommend getting "Mercury Rising."

Rating: Summary: Worth renting, but not buying Review: I enjoyed watching this film, but it's a bit silly in parts. The boy is a good actor, but Baldwin's performance is weak. Willis is his usual self.
Rating: Summary: stop being so critical....it's an action movie Review: i found this film very entertaining and well acted (especially by miko hughes as simon),except for alec baldwin's performance.. the plot centers around a 9 year old autistic boy who cracks a top secret government code. needless to say,this puts him in danger. fbi agent bruce willis comes to the rescue.
Rating: Summary: I loved it Review: I guess I'm not an intellectual, but I love it! It's one of those movies that I can watch over and over again (and have). While the action plot may not be that original, the acting and personal side of the story line captured me. I like the scenes that show how the different adults in the boy's life care for him and accommodate his disability and, also, how that plays into the suspense side of the story. I also love the scene in the wine cellar! Plausibility, shmausibility - if you just want to watch an entertaining and captivating movie without too much analysis, try this one.
Rating: Summary: The normal action movie for Bruce Willis Good Review: I liked the movie and I take it for what it was made for,just you'r regular action movie. It's made to enjoy, not to take to heart and does't have to be totally believable.
Rating: Summary: violet's review Review: I really like this movie. I love the little boy--he is really good. I saw him in something else, (Jack Bear?) and he was really good also. Anyway, this is a pretty good action movie. Well I like it anyway. You will like it too. I love that kid!
Rating: Summary: Average to disappointing..... Review: I saw this film as a rental and thought it was average at best. The plot was transparent - and has anyone else had enough of Bruce Willis as the renegade cop? Baldwin was not compelling as the villian and there was a weak supporting cast. I thought they took a potentially interesting story and did very little with it. Rent it when everything else is out....
Rating: Summary: This was great Review: i thought this movie was awesome! i saw it with some friends and we all felt so sorry for the little boy, we almost cried! this story is touching, yet action packed, its a really good balance of the two.
Rating: Summary: hmmm.....not so smart Review: I would have to laugh with the review made by the canadian viewer. He sure nailed it down to what the movie really is. To me it was somewhat suspenseful but an insult to to any viewer and out with any real potential for this movie by a lot of shooting.
