What is it about?
Juror 8 is the story of South Korea’s first trial by jury in 2008. It follows the case of a son murdering his mother, with all factors seeming to point to a guilty ruling. However, the trial does not go as smoothly as expected. The eighth juror, young entrepreneur Kwon Nam Woo questions the defendant’s self-declaration of guilt.

My review:
Once in a while, you watch something so heartwarming you can't help but smile when characters are smiling and you cry when they are crying. Something that you will think about a long time after it ended. Juror 8 was exactly that kind of a movie.
Even though this film was Crime/Law genre it's loaded with all the feels that make you realise you are human. I don't want to say more than that because no amount of words can suffice how wonderful this film is. You have to feel it for yourself.
Please do yourself a favour and watch it.
10/10 highly recommend.
