Oh LAWD HAVE MERCY! That’s the name of the movie we’re talking about. Mercy. Not LAWD or HAVE. It’s got Rebecca Ferrguson and Chris Pratt in it. This “movie” dares to ask the question “What if AI tried its hand in our legal system; acting as judge, jury, and executioner?” I know what you’re thinking… wait…why. Why would they do this and why would you watch this movie and further more, why would you review it?

The answer to SOME of those questions will be answered in this episode of The Stale Popcorn Podcast!
