This film is badass to say the least and it is definitely a story that needed to be told. I did think it was tacky to end the film with modern news footage because it draws a false equivalence between our times, but overall this is a great film.
There are a lot of things more memorable than this film. For example: your grandmas license plate, 3rd grade English class, and the password to your first email account. Basically, girl gets powers from spacebox, finds out her true origins, learns to use her powers by believing in herself, and becomes so powerful that there is no point in watching her do anything because she can’t struggle.
Everything about this film is perfect, from the acting and writing to the screenplay and dialogue. Henry Fonda truly helps make this film the masterpiece it is with his expert performance. Finally, I think the mark of a truly great film is that it never ages, and 12 Angry Men still makes you feel like you are sitting there in that courtroom nearly 70 years later.
