The Guilty
A troubled police officer Joe Baylor (Jake Gyllenhaal) gets temporarily reassigned to work at the 911 call center. This is pretty much a one-man show focusing Baylor’s difficult & stressful night handling calls. The film gives some insights to what these 911 operators go through. Baylor becomes obsessed with one call from a possible abductee. This is an intense crime thriller from a single perspective. Gyllenhaal gives an emotional & outstanding performance
Alien gives it 3 “saving the broken” stars it of 4.
