Caution
Mercy Streets
Review by Teddy James
Mercy Streets is a dramatic tale of deception played out in the lives of twin brothers. Jeremiah, an aspiring preacher, and John, a criminal, struggle with a haunting past and a terrorizing present when their identities get switched. Through it all, the two men wrestle with the reality of personal sin.
The story challenges viewers to be honest about the condition of their own hearts. It’s a picture of undeserved love and mercy. There are elements of prostitution, counterfeiting, smoking and drinking. The film contains a lot of street violence, giving it a PG-13 rating. Language includes one use of God’s name in vain and a few other obscenities.
