"What Have You Done Today Mervyn Day?" is a pleasant surprise. It is similar to Saint Etienne's previous film project "Finisterre", in the way that it shows random shots of the urban landscape of London. Yet, "What Have You Done Today Mervyn Day?" is much better than "Finisterre" as it has a story to hold the random scenery shots together. By having a young man riding a bicycle around the place, there is a cinematic purpose for showing the scenery.
