8 sourcesSynopsis
While serving as a juror in a high profile murder trial, family man Justin Kemp finds himself struggling with a serious moral dilemma…one he could use to sway the jury verdict and potentially convict—or free—the accused killer.
Critics consensus
A legal thriller with a heavy conscience, Juror #2 is less a summation of Clint Eastwood's storied directorial career than another terrific reminder of his knack for plain-spoken drama.
Audience consensus
A solid courtroom drama with an engaging premise, Juror #2 puts a man’s guilt on trial with philosophical flare.
What resonated with audiences
'Juror #2' is a compelling courtroom drama exploring justice and morality, directed by Clint Eastwood. Nicholas Hoult's performance is lauded, though some find the plot predictable. The film, featuring Toni Collette and J. K. Simmons, is a solid addition to Eastwood's work, though not his best. The direction and pacing are effective, yet some critics wish for deeper thematic exploration.
