what a movie should be.....!!!

Rating: 9/10 (2 April 2013)

I was on a desperate search for classics and my friend gave me this film and he told me a movie can't be classier. I was really fascinated by this simple film. The movie deals with the varying viewpoints of 12 jurors on a murder case. Only one juror feels that the accused is not guilty and he goes against the other 11 with a handful of evidences against their theories. Believe it or not, 90 percent of the film is shot in a single room. You won't find elaborate sets, skimpily clad girls or any high octane action, but what you are going to find is the stellar performance from all the 12 angry men and a very subtle yet edge of the seat thriller. It once again proves the point that the success of any film relies on the performance of the actors and more importantly a furnished screenplay. There is never any dull moment in the entire movie. If you miss this movie you have missed one of the best films ever made, period.
