One of the greatest victories of human over ignorance

Rating: 10/10 (7 July 2010)

"12 angry man" is one of those legendary movies that can be watched at any time in human history. I am sure this movie will still be in the top 10 of the greatest movies of all times.
It is a simple but complex movie. It has a perfect content - great and different characters, intriguing plot, climax and so on.
Maybe the end is a little bit predictable but luckily it doesn't make this movie boring.
What makes this film great is the plot. 12 men have to decide if a man is guilty or not. The man's life is at stake. One man, who cares for life is up to make things clear. He doesn't want to let the young man be sent to die so easily. He openly questions his guilt of the crime, and therefore saves him from gallows.
Victory over ignorance and dumb obstinacy is important in the movie.
