The Guilty 2021 Netflix SHOCKING TWIST and Ending EXPLAINED!

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! BUt before anything else, please make sure first that you hit that subscribe button and notification bell for more updates. Now, let’s dive right in!

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.

It was like reading a good book, your imagination got to paint a picture without taking away from what you are reading (this case watching) because the main character is so gripping and unsurprisingly Jake acting is out of this world! You simply don’t realise your just watching a guy on the phone for two hours and that is down to Jakes phenomenal acting!

[victornieves]

Joe actually tried to lie at first to Emily about the 19 year old. First he said “He hurt someone, ” and them immediately said “No he didn’t.” Joe either unknowingly or deliberately killed the wrong person.

I felt a bunch of emotions from start to end, I personally couldn't take my eyes off this film although it wasn't perfect. It indeed was an awesome film and Jake my good sir was Fantastic, his performance was sooo good.

[jefffromjersey]

You missed a very important part, he also calls his Partner at the end, and tells him to tell the truth, Joe wants to come clean, and his partner is very emotional realizing joe will not be seeing his daughter for many years ..The news reports then show the conviction for manslaughter .. Kind of important because his partner did not have to lie for him, Joe just told him "tell the truth, promise me" ..

[chefpizza]

This movie was intense even if it was just watching a guy on a phone the whole time

[angiegonzalez]

How could we not mention the great Bill Burr yelling at him on the phone during the call about a bar fight 😂

[Jamezy]

How Oliver was murderd is a lot darker than "he was stabbed" Remember the psychotic mother says "he was sick, and she needed to help him, he had snakes in him and she had to take them out" Thats why the cop that found him was screaming "OMG" and almost got sick. Because the "snakes" were his intestines. The mother ripped him open, and pulled his insides out. The first time I watched that scene, and heard her say "snakes" I knew immediately, ad visualized it right away. It made this movie so much darker, intense, and one crazy turn of events. The "snakes" was one thing, but it was the officers reaction that made it clear. Police see bullet wounds, and stab wounds.... but to make you almost puke and have to run out... you can imagine the scene he must have walked in on.

This movie was awesome. That twist was crazy. Thanks for the breakdown !

[theghostreckon]

This film ties with “End of Watch” as one of his greatest, I just finished watching it on Netflix and it is the best thing I’ve ever seen, one of the few movies that almost made me cry and that’s impressive because not even titanic managed to do that to me.

[gcdqpvk]

That one part when Emily said snakes in his body my mouth dropped because I knew what she meant

[karaa]

I'll watch ANYTHING with Jake in it. ❤

[Crvxy]

One of the best movies I’ve watching in a really long time. Way to many emotions showed during this show and I will say it was amazing. 10/10

[Ninterd]

I thought the movie was great, didn't know it was a remake. And as for the concept of only seeing Jake, that just added suspense. If they cut to scenes in the van or scenes with the girl on the phone it wouldn't have been nearly as effective. I will admit I didn't think his cough mattered at all, and it would have been nicer to see more than the call in the stall. But as for the concent itself, it was very exciting to me.

[Aegon]

Wasn’t sure how to feel about this movie by the description, but goddamn didn’t realize they could make a movie about a phone call so intriguing.

[socal_]

Movie was great. Twisted but amazing. Jakes acting is amazing.

[Bluhbluh]

I absolutely loved this film (I just finished watching it), but it bothered me SO MUCH that Joe never apologized to Henry. I did love the choice not to vilify Emily, though, that was not only refreshing but it also made the movie so much smarter, more impactful, and more real

[jaredsmith]

To feel so helpless, is just about the worst feeling out there.
Also reminds me of DEVIL and Room 1408. Coming to terms. With their inner demons.

[animatornic]

Thanks for summing it up! Was pretty confused and found it hard to hear everything that was going on😂🙌🏼

[moonbeamscream]

I actually heard Bill Burr's voice as well. It was the call from a bar where there was a fight and a tremendous amount of background noise. Jake Gyllenhaal hands up on him because he insults him lol

[youcantkeeprunninginandout]

Bro when the little girl was like "Daddy said I shouldn't wake him up" I was "Oh shit oh fuck" and then she went "Daddy had a knife" and I was like "OH GOD OH and then when you find out what really happened I was so goddamn shook I had to pause the movie. I really enjoyed this movie, usually I can't handle all the suspense and waiting to see what happens next but it had me gripped from start to finish and most of that was thanks to Jakes acting
