Rated 12 Angry Men 8/10

The kid was the murderer. The jury got it wrong. The evidence against him was too strong and my god the jury really loved twisting things with ridiculous hypotheticals. Like, no, it isn't ridiculous to expect someone who is very emotional in the moment to do something stupid like yell "I'm going to kill you" and do it. People do stupid things in emotional moments. Also, the Juror when acting out the old man moving moved WAAAAAY too slowly. Like, way too slowly. Then, there's the scene where the Juror gets another guy to try to remember literally every detail of the movies he watched. The kid couldn't remember THE NAMES OF A SINGLE MOVIE HE SAW. Those aren't little details that he couldn't remember like the Juror being asked those questions. Anyway, this is one of the most well directed films I have ever seen with pretty flawless acting and written well, even if the last holdout juror was written like a cartoon villain. 4/5 = Very good
