Engaging, fantastic, and quite thrilling for a film set in a single room for 90 minutes.
Did you note how the camera's change as the movie progresses? At the beginning we see the whole room and all of the players but as the action heats up the shots get more and more focused on individuals and intense close ups.

Lumet was a master.
