Unfortunately, I suspect many people havent got the chance to see Juror No.

What is ‘Juror No.

So lets just say his summons for jury duty isnt especially welcome.

How does Justin know that?

Toni Collette as Faith Killebrew in “Juror No. 2”

Because Justin himself is (inadvertently) responsible for the victims death.

And now Justin has to decide whether to condemn an innocent man or reveal the truth.

They are going to send an innocent man to jail.

‘Juror No.

Try and tell me that isnt one of the most intriguing ideas for a legal thriller youve ever heard.

2 doesnt waste such a brilliant setup, and if anything its even better than it sounds.

2 is one of the most well-paced movies Ive ever watched.

Just when you think the story has nowhere else to go, something unexpected will be revealed.

Its genuine writing from Jonathan Abrams, and the runtime passes in a total flash.

Nicholas Hoult proves to be a solid choice for the lead.

The movie also makes the wise decision to not cast judgment on Justin or the decisions he makes.

The question of what is true justice?

2 is not an ambitious movie from a filmmaking perspective.

2 is a masterfully entertaining movie.
