Libramedi Intense, gripping, stylish and poignant

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Peereddi I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

dmans-899-510846 This is one of the best legal drama films I have ever seen. The suspense is palpable & keeps you wondering where this story is taking you. Excellent acting by almost everyone. Though not a fan of Yancy Butler, despite her problems she managed to pull her role through. I really highly recommend this film. But you need to concentrate entirely on the story to get it. Loved it enough to own it on DVD to watch again. Please give this a try - you will be rewarded for your patience.

sparktom I'll give a "last letter" here ... "D-," a grade that misses "F" only because I HAVE seen worse. Rarely.Bad script, bad acting, bad everything. "Twelve Angry Men," this is not. Yet, the writer/director somehow thought he'd weave a tale that takes place around a juror's table and VO sepia flashbacks involving the case. Not a respected device for exposition, and this film illustrates why. Not only do twists seem like cheats (i.e. the audience had no shot of discovering it,) but they're just unbelievable to start with.Stiff, wooden lines do nothing to further the careers of unknowns and past-prime actors here. The ending, unsatisfying and vapid, shows the writer's belief that we'll buy into anything.

molly-crowther This is a terrible, terrible movie. I like bad movies, but I couldn't even sit through this piece of trash. All of the actors (or should I say 'over-actors'?) were terrible caricatures of characters in Twelve Angry Men, the plot is trite (they probably stole a good part of it from CSI or something), and the flashbacks of the murders are terribly shot and filtered with something yellow so they are also physically hard to watch. Unless you have watched every other movie ever made, for Pete's sake don't get this one. If you're looking for jury drama, go with the original version of Twelve Angry Men instead. And if you're looking for an actual psychological thriller, there are hundreds better than this one.

BigD-4 Just saw a pre-release screening of the film, and it's really good. You can tell they didn't have a lot of money to make it, but it's very well acted and the story rocks! It starts out a little slow, but it's worth the wait to see all the cool twists at the end. Yancy Butler delivers in this thing, and William Forsythe is his usual sinister self. But even the smaller roles are well done. Looks like the writer/director Russell Gannon is staying busy. Definitely want to check out the other movies he's got in post-production. The blog says this film is coming out on DVD in late-June. I wish they would post some pictures from the set. Especially of Yancy Butler?
