The Guilty (2021)

A demoted policeman becomes intensely involved after getting a call from a kidnapped woman while he works on the 911 call service.

'The Guilty' is another cop thriller by Antoine Fuqua. Intense as usual, but different in style, mainly due to the lack of visual presence of all the characters except for Jake Gyllenhaal's, which sometimes reminds the viewer of 'Locke' (with Tom Hardy). The idea of ​​the story has its merits, but it is predictable at times, however that does not decrease the suspense or the intensity of the eyes and the acting of Jake Gyllenhaal who as usual gives everything he has in another somewhat unusual role.

Director:  Antoine Fuqua   
With: Jake Gyllenhaal, Riley Keough, Peter Sarsgaard, Christina Vidal, Paul Dano

Rating: 8/10
