Netflix has a new psychological thriller, and it is now one of the trending topics in the online streaming giant. The Guilty is a 2021 American crime thriller film directed and produced by Antoine Fuqua, from a screenplay by Nic Pizzolatto. A remake of the 2018 Danish film of the same name, the film stars Jake Gyllenhaal and Christina Vidal, with the voices of Ethan Hawke, Riley Keough, Eli Goree, Da'Vine Joy Randolph, Paul Dano, and Peter Sarsgaard. The Guilty had its world premiere at the 2021 Toronto International Film Festival on September 11, 2021. The film was released in a limited release on September 24, 2021, then digitally on Netflix on October 1. It received mostly positive reviews from critics, who praised Gyllenhaal's performance, and has skyrocketed to Netflix’s top ten in just a few days after its release on the platform. Now that’s what you call a great job!

The film was good, the setting was thrilling, and the storyline was daunting as it is compelling. But what surprised and baffled many audiences was the shocking twist and ending that left many viewers in awe. Now, not all viewers understood and appreciated the twist, and that is what we are here for. Today, we will take a deep look at the twist and ending of the new movie on Netflix, The Guilty, and why the threads were woven that way. But let us warn you, we will be going into some intricate details and if you haven’t watched the whole film yet, then get ready for a lot of spoilers!

You'll be forgiven for having déjà vu when you open Netflix. New to the site today is a film called The Guilty, starring Jake Gyllenhaal, which follows a single evening for a 911 operator named Joe. It is, of course, an English language remake of the 2018 Danish thriller of the same name which earned high praise from critics and currently holds a rating of 97% on Rotten Tomatoes. The remake is directed by Antoine Fuqua. Largely loyal to the 2018 highly-acclaimed thriller of the same name, “The Guilty” will offend some cinephiles with its very existence. “Just see the original,” they will shout, basically ending all conversation about the remake with the accusation that it should have never happened. However, if you’re willing to recognize that the remake industry isn’t that black and white (and not as purely American a trend as Twitter seems to have falsely been led to believe), there’s a lot to like here, including the fact that what people suspect will be a smash hit for Netflix will lead people back to the excellent original. Ultimately, the narrative of Antoine Fuqua’s “The Guilty” operates largely from the motto of “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” And yet, to be fair, screenwriter Nic Pizzolatto (“True Detective”) does add a few different notes of commentary on American policing and ignorant masculinity that slightly distinguish his take thematically, and Jake Gyllenhaal delivers as one would expect, proving again that he’s one of the most consistent actors alive. As the sole actor to really have screen time, well, there are a few fellow dispatch workers, but the rest of the pivotal actors are all voice-only. But we'll get into all of that as we explain what exactly happened in The Guilty.

It’s clear to the viewer that Joe doesn’t have the entire story. It’s also evident that acting on impulse may have been what got Joe Baylor into trouble to begin with. We learn that Joe’s natural intensity has been amped up due to the fact that he’s awaiting trial the next day for shooting a man while on active duty.

Still, Joe’s read on the situation is completely wrong. First, two LAPD officers perform a wellness check on Abby, who was left at Emily’s home when she was supposedly kidnapped. They discover that Abby is covered in blood and that her brother, Oliver, has been gravely injured and isn’t just “sleeping” as Abby told Joe over the phone.

If that isn’t disconcerting enough, when Joe’s friend unlawfully enters Emily’s ex-husband’s apartment on Joe’s orders, he discovers documents pertaining to Emily’s stay inside a psychiatric facility. The phone rings and it's Emily, and Joe figures out that she's standing on an overpass above the freeway. As she comes to realize what she's done to her son, Joe begs her not to jump.

The Guilty’s entire theme can be summed up by the officer that lets Joe know that Oliver is in the ICU.
