Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.

nikolas-grigoriou The movie is a pure masterpiece. Filmed in a room with no extensive set design, costume design etc, yet it makes the viewer get attached by the acting and the dialogues of the actors. It is a proof that a great idea can easily lead to a masterpiece.As the title of the movie suggests, there are twelve men that have been randomly selected as jurors and they are responsible for making an important decision for the court, if a man is guilty or not.Eleven of them believe that the man is guilty while one is not sure. He tries to make them express their personal view on the case and explain why the do actually stick on their initial decision by making a contradiction on the facts and by presenting his personal opinion.Each of the characters and his background is revealed to the viewer, as well as why they have chosen to believe that the man is guilty. As the discussion proceeds and the contrast between them gets to a peak, each of them starts to revise the initial decision.

raplover-39704 12 Angry men has for a long time been on my list of what I would consider the best movies ever made. When a movie that merely displays a couple of people sitting in a room talking to one another can have you on the edge of your seat, then it's surely doing something right. However, recently my opinion on the movie changed. Why, you may ask? Because it makes no sense legally. The film is about a jury that has to decide whether there is evidence of a murder beyond a reasonable doubt, which means exactly what it implies. There has to be a reasonable doubt for them not to convict the person, not absence of any doubt at all. Evidence is almost never 100% confirmatory, fingerprints or DNA don't say anyting definitive and witnesses can lie. But when there is a lot of evidence and all of it is pointing in one direction (as is the case in the movie), then the standard of reasonable doubt has surely been reached. This movie makes no legal sense and has been misinforming people on the way the law works for decades now. It's still great in it's acting and the excitement that it's able to bring to table, but whole premise doesn't make sense.

arishsankar Parents need to know that 12 Angry Men is a gripping 1957 drama that makes much out of a simple situation (the ordinary deliberations of a jury) and setting (the room where they have been sequestered). Jurors smoke cigarettes throughout the movie. Biased jurors state as a "fact" that minorities drink too much alcohol. There is one "damn." A young man is accused of stabbing his father to death. Jurors nearly come to blows over disagreements about the case. One juror threatens to kill another in the heat of the moment. The fact that this jury is made up exclusively of white males should be explained to kids as a sign of the film's time period. Despite its age, this drama still has a lot to say about the principles on which the American justice system is based, as well as issues of prejudice.

teeebies-386-140128 In my opinion one of the greater ones out there. The atmosphere and the story line let you completely forget that it's all shot in one room.
