I’m torn on Juror #2. I do appreciate the moral dilemmas it set up.
Have you seen Twelve Angry Men? This movie is a dumbed-down version of that, with an extra plot twist on top of that, but on average I think it’s worse.
The original movie was about reasoning under uncertainty and updating, but this adaptation just threw it away:
there is a guy who knows what happened, and the rest of the jury barely shows any actual thinking (except for the detective).
(If you want to do a modern adaptation of the classic, you can do much better. I liked the Russian version.)
