There are so few movies in this world that manage to immerse you completely into the situations it portrays. In general, the simpler the situation, the easier the immersion.

" 12 Angry Men is such a good courtroom drama, that for me, it simply blows the majority of every other film in this genre out of the water (okay, technically this isn't really a "courtroom" drama because the entire film happens in the jury-room. But let's face it, the plot's purpose is one that leads into the most important part of the courtroom process, the verdict).
