At least 12 Angry Men had 12 men in one room. This is just 1 man -- and not even a likable man, one of the angry men -- in a room for 90 minutes.

This movie works if you’re willing to disregard our entire reality for a movie based in “reality”…..
Garbage, waste of time, complete non sense.… Expand

0/10 for the painful ride. 0/10 for the lame attempt at trying to humanize police as a guise; so you can later pooo on them later with woke propaganda.
