Apparently Warners had always intended that the film be straight to streaming but did give it a limited 50 theatre release.
Jonathan Abrams offers for us 12 Angry Men with a twist - one of the jurors committed the crime. So that's fine.
Clint shows no sign of making an 'old man's film', the set-ups are assured, he's not showing a tendency for long, single camera takes. On the contrary. Did the performances warrant cutting around? I doubt it. We have Nicholas Hoult, Toni Collette and J.K. Simmons, and then Zoey Deutch, Adrienne C. Moore, Leslie Bibb, Cedric Yarbrough, Chris Messina, Amy Aquino (Judge), Gabriel Basso (the alleged murderer), Keifer Sutherland.
The only thing I found odd was how he managed to convince everyone to go with Guilty.
I thought Joel Cox had retired.- I don't know why as he's cut all Clint's recent films, here with (presumably) his son David. Yves Bélanger shot it.
