Nicholas Hoult’s new movie debuts with strong Rotten Tomatoes rating
As a seasoned film enthusiast who has watched my fair share of courtroom dramas and legal thrillers, I must say that Juror #2, directed by none other than Clint Eastwood, has truly impressed me. The way it delves into the moral complexities and dilemmas of its characters is nothing short of masterful.
The movie titled “Juror #2“, featuring Nicholas Hoult and Toni Collette in leading roles, has garnered a robust score on Rotten Tomatoes.
As a gaming enthusiast diving into a new role-playing scenario, I find myself stepping into the shoes of Justin Kemp, a dedicated family man and budding journalist, unexpectedly summoned for jury duty in a gripping legal thriller, masterfully directed by none other than Clint Eastwood.
The case is the murder of Kendall Carter, with James Sythe (Gabriel Basso) being considered the prime suspect. Justin, however, has intimate knowledge of the case, with the journalist hitting Kendall with his car on the night of her death.
In the courtroom, Justin finds himself in a moral dilemma because he feels both responsible for and sympathetic towards his brother, James, who he believes is innocent, while at the same time wanting to stand by his own conscience which tells him that saving an innocent man’s life is important.
As a gaming enthusiast excitedly awaiting the release of “Juror #2”, I can’t help but feel a thrill knowing that it has already garnered significant praise following its premiere at the AFI Festival on October 27th. With its official launch set for November 1st, this movie is already generating buzz with an impressive 91% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on its first 35 reviews. I can hardly wait to see it!

Rolling Stone
It’s uncertain if this movie marks Clint Eastwood’s final film, as the decision hasn’t been made yet. However, it’s clear that he isn’t taking things easy. Even younger artists would struggle to create such an engaging ‘airport cinema’.
The Washington Post
Juror number two embodies the worldly insights of an artist who shifts from musing over societal shortcomings in regards to those we label as heroes, to pondering the myriad ways an individual could stumble and fall short of his own expectations.
The Guardian
The tension remains subtle, yet the movie provides comforting enjoyment, particularly in the heated jury room debates; unlike in 12 Angry Men, Henry Fonda never encountered the corrupting impact of real-life crime podcasts.
Hollywood Reporter
As a devoted admirer, I’d say that Clint Eastwood, known for his lifelong exploration of the ethical turmoil within society, primarily concentrates on Justin’s internal moral quandary, rather than his legal predicament.
TimeOut
This fresh take on the genre presents a profoundly engaging and intellectually challenging dilemma that surpasses any moral complexity John Grisham wrote about.
Screen International
The movie culminates in an unforeseen yet powerfully subtle finale, demonstrating that this seasoned director continues to discover fresh perspectives on the ordinary bravery found in daily life.
Juror #2 is in cinemas on November 1.
