Movie information in first post provided by The Movie Database
The movie is about twelve men who sit on the jury and they have to decide if a young boy is guilty. They cannot do it alone they have to discuss it and come up with a decision.

This movie was interesting because it teach people the values of listening to one another and coming to a common solution. In the movie, some of the men had different views on what should be done, however, they sit down and make a conclusion.

The movie also depicted the aspect of the role of one person. A part of the men were still unsure whether the boy was guilty of the crime, and some of those men were courageous enough to admit that to themselves. It's a very interesting film to watch.
 
I'm not usually a big fan of movies that are this old, as I'm a lot younger and have grown up with newer stuff with better effects and better camera work etc, however, having watched this film, I have to say this is a great. The storyline is captivating and at no point did I want to switch off because I just really wanted to know what was going to happen next in the story. For a 50s film with a small budget, this was great imo.
