Juror #2
Juror #2 is in my opinion an excellent thriller with a very interesting premise.
I loved the fact that from the start the film didn't waste time and got into the main plot immediatly. We only have some scenes for context and that completly fine. Moreover the pacing is handled very well throughout the film and i was hooked by the story. Though it started to drag a bit at the end.
Juror #2 is also a very well written film when it comes to its characters. The main character Justin, who is played brilliantly by Nicholas Hoult, is layered, complex and interesting to follow. The way his backstory was revealed is well thought out and subtle. Even the secondary characters has their own complexities and even if they're not as developped than our main character you can still feel that they have substance and something to bring to the plot.
Despite the fact that it's a thriller and has effective scenes filled with tension, there were some humorous moments that made me smile or laugh.
This film didn't deserve this weak theatre worldwide releases
