12 Angry Men (1957)
Too slow, doesn't go anywhere
It goes on and on, they are talking in a small room and it's not a good set because it makes the viewer feel cramped and claustrophobic. The movie should have shown other places, because you get bored in like 5 minute of the same damn room, that you're in for the whole movie. We want to see other places which are more interesting! The actors are mediocre and make their characters seem just like some random person on the street, and not like a spectacular character who is larger than life in some way, and that's just boring ! The script isn't that good, they just talk back and fort and don't seem to get anywhere, everybody could have said what they wanted and been done with it in at least half the time.
And let's talk about the ending, you don't even get any closure, you don't even get to know if the boy was the murderer for real! Then what's the point of the whole MOVIE? Where you're trying to find out if he did it or not. All in all, it's a pretty mediocre film, which would have benefited from some better acting at times and not being in black and white.
I give this movie a 5/10
