With his gangster boss (Tony Lo Bianco) on trial for murder, a mob thug known as "the Teacher" (Alec Baldwin) tells Annie Laird (Demi Moore) she must talk her fellow jurors into a not-guilty verdict, implying that he'll kill her son Oliver (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) if she fails. She manages to do this, but, when it becomes clear that the mobsters might want to silence her for good, she sends Oliver abroad and tries to gather evidence of the plot against her, setting up a final showdown.

Critics Consensus

Self-serious despite its abundance of trite twists, The Juror is a drab thriller that audiences may hold in contempt.

Moore needs The Juror like she needs another scarlet letter; the 'D-for-dopey' here is hanging down to everyone's knees.

Women in the Life

At first glance, this seems like another typical "woman being victimized" movie that's pretty predictable, but its ending may surprise you.

Herald Sun (Australia)

Tremendously trashy courtroom drama that improves as its silly premise just keeps on getting, well, sillier.

Rated: 2.5/5

Reel Film Reviews

The film's uneven atmosphere is especially disappointing given the irresistible, seemingly foolproof premise and effectiveness of the stars' performances...

Rated: 2.5/4

It’s an okay movie. If you’ve never seen it, it’s worth watching. Alec Baldwin is the best one in it. I may be a little jaded since I’m not at all a Demi Moore fan.

An awful story that even good actors could not make attractive. I finished it by reading the storyline on Wikipedia. That made me glad I turned it off after half an hour!

Terribly uninteresting despite trying too hard to be so and utterly senseless to the last minute, but it's watchable on a boring evening.

The trip to Guatamala was not needed but the reasoning for it was clear. Baldwin does a great job as the villain,and the supporting cast fits in nicely.
