Recently, I finally got around to watching 12 Angry Men. I know, I know, I'm a failure as a lawyer. But I never had it as a priority because it's ancient (1950s black and white), and so, despite its hype, I didn't expect much out of it.

I freely admit I was wrong, and I was thoroughly entertained. It was relatively short (~90 minutes), and it was fascinating to slowly learn about the actual events through the lens of a jury deliberation room. There was a nice variety of characters in the room, and the movie did a good job with each character's personality, showing exactly why each character was making their arguments or votes. 12 Angry Men deserves its reputation.

EDIT: If I had to rate it... boy, I dunno. I guess a 7.5/10. The brevity limited its impact some, but that might be considered a plus by others.
