A cinematic masterpiece that no movie enthusiast should miss out on

Rating: 10/10 (27 January 2018)

Featuring 12 fascinating characters in the roles of jurors on a murder trial (hence the title) Henry Fonda plays the lone vote that urges the rest of the jury to think twice and reconsider the verdict of the defendant. While some may argue that this film is the best of all time, few will debate it's place in anyone's top ten list as it's masterful dialogue, riveting plot and virtually flawless direction will leave any filmmaker straining to beat. It's simplistic setting and costume design renders the film timeless and besides it's black and white visual it will certainly be able to captivate any audience that won't settle for anything less than a modern standard. If by some miracle you're a film enthusiast, filmmaker or even a casual viewer who has missed this phenomenal piece of work, I urge you to give it a watch as soon as you're able to.
