Kritiken (7)
Mit Kenntnissen des norwegischen Originals und damit des ganzen Plots einschließlich der Pointe ist der Film nicht mehr fesselnd. Vielmehr genießen wir nur die Gegenwart von Jake Gyllenhaal und vergleichen das formale Konzept, das hier durch große Bildschirme des Kommunikationszentrums, die kalifornische Brände zeigen, abwechslungsreich wirkt. Die Intensität des angespannten psychischen Zustands der Hauptfigur ist für einen Mainstream-Netflix-Film überraschend, als ob Antoine Fuqua dadurch versucht hätte, die fehlende Rohheit und Authentizität des Originalfilms einzuholen. Gyllenhaal bemüht sich schauspielerisch und wir wissen alle, dass er ein guter Schauspieler ist. Aber das Maß an Konzentration auf seine Figur ist oberflächlich übertrieben. Wir kennen sie und ihre guten menschlichen Seiten nicht genug, um mit ihr mitfühlen zu können.

Wenn man das dänische Original The Guilty gesehen hat, hat dieses englisch gesprochene Remake einem fast nichts zu bieten. Man kann nur Jake Gyllenhaals beeindruckende schauspielerische Leistung genießen, aber für diesen amerikanischen Kopierstil ohne zusätzliche Ideen ist es wirklich eine absolute Verschwendung.

It doesn't feel like the Americans added anything fresh to this remake. In fact, it seems to lack some logic in places. The concept does lend itself to a strong performance, and Jake Gyllenhaal definitely takes the spotlight, maybe a bit too egoistically. If you haven’t seen the original, it’s a decent minimalist thriller. Otherwise, it feels pretty unnecessary.

A thriller... and a cheap one. Gyllenhall savors the ambiguous character of an emergency line operator who gets a call from an abducted woman. With a computer and head set in the supporting roles. I haven’t seen the original and don’t know how much Pizzolatto changed, but the dialogs and twists are very good with the suffocating Covid atmosphere. Calling over the phone and face to face contact just aren’t the same! One day I might watch the original Danish version.

An intimate and such a well written film that it seemed to me almost like an adaptation of a very good radio play. I didn't see the original, so I was able to be (for an hour and a half) tense and wait to see what came out of it, because from the beginning something suspicious hung in the air in that strange night atmosphere. Jake Gyllenhaal is great and the point was successful - given that and the overall tone, I understand why the Americans needed to make (remake) this film and at this time.

I definitely belong to the group that doesn’t quite understand the point of remaking certain films (especially when it’s often laughable how the creators consider the remake to be an original work). This film falls into that category too, but fortunately, Antoine Fuqua and his team managed to get the absolute maximum out of it. After all, casting Gyllenhaal in the lead role alone is enough to attract crowds. Over the past decade, you’d be hard-pressed to find many actors from the younger generation as talented as he is; he immerses himself in his roles in a way that makes your eyes pop. The Danish original already impressed with its story, so I didn’t expect anything different in that regard. I was just a bit disappointed that the creators didn’t make any smaller, thoughtful changes. On the other hand, I felt better about the two crazy twists; they seemed more authentic. I’ll give it a 7, mainly thanks to Gyllenhaal’s masterful performance. Recommended. For me, it’s 7/10.

If you're not familiar with the Danish original and were lured in by Jake, you'll probably enjoy this. For those familiar with the original film, it's a complete waste of time that, with complete (and totally irrelevant to the plot) exceptions, just dully copies the excellent original. Unfortunately, Jake Gyllenhaal overacts at times and falls far short of his highest acting qualities as in Prisoners or Zodiac. [55%]
