Review of 12 Angry Men (1957) by Thesweboo — 08 Dec 2018
"IT'S JUST 12 MEN IN A ROOM FOR AN HOUR AND A HALF! BORING! 0/10!" This is why people love this movie haha. It is 12 different men with different outlooks on life being isolated in a confined space having to use the English language as a mean to compromise and persuade one another during a murder investigation for 90 minutes.
Yes. Yet it's one of the most riveting movies I've ever seen, few movies have had me this invested. Seeing our main character, played brilliantly by Henry Fonda, at the start of the movie being completely alone voting against the execution one by one convincing the 11 other men to vote the same as him is an experience I think everyone should experience.
During the final act I lost count of how many times I said "This **** guy" out loud. A very solid movie choice for a first black and white experience. Brilliant, just brilliant.
