The Guilty (2021)
3/10
Assessing as I go
3 July 2022
Warning: Spoilers
I'm gonna review this as I go because I feel like my thoughts are going to drastically change...

32 mins in... Joe is nasty and I really hope we aren't meant to empathise with him because so far I do not. No sense of what it's like to work as a team to achieve a common goal.

49 mins in... **thought** I wonder if it's a cheaper budget because it's just one set and mainly voice actors. I think Emily is gonna be the guilty one in a twist of fate.

54mins in... as if the husband hasn't thrown her phone away. Like would you abduct someone and so far they've called 911 four times and you still let her have her phone?!

1hr00min... Well we picked that twist didn't we? And like Joe on the phone to Rick... just respond. This is a frustrating movie.

1hr04min... at a higher level it's a commentary on how America gives no support to those in need until it's too late.

1hr07min... he's so rude to his coworkers. I hate him. Joe should go home and get some sleep because he is doing a poor job today.

1hr11min... imagine this was all a setup to get Joe's confession haha. I can't decide if I think Jake is doing a good acting job in here or not.

1hr14min... I feel like the team or the supervisor should be doing more here. Like... are these operators really just left to their own devices? And eww, is the vomit scene really necessary?

1hr22min... not sure what the message is here? Bad people can be good too? Meh

Overall... pass.

P. S. Ethan Hawke was apparently one of the cast (voices?)! I feel like his leading man days have truly disappeared.
