The Guilty (2018)
Chosen by TheUsualSuspect

I already had this on my watchlist so I was glad when it was chosen for me.
This reminded me a lot of Locke with Tom Hardy. An under 90 minute thriller that's basically 1 man in 1 place in real time talking over the phone. A thriller this minimal probably doesn't have the highest ceiling for me, but I liked this a lot more than Locke.
A cop is on 911 phone type duty and he's answering calls. There's some stress in his life, which while not integral to the plot, adds a little stress to the viewer. He answers a couple of calls, and I noticed that he was a little judgmental. I didn't think much of it at the time, but it ends up meaning something later. Anyway he picks up a call from a woman who's been kidnapped and the main story grows from that. It's a tight and gripping movie from start to finish, and it had a pretty decent twist that I was not expecting. I think it's a movie most people would enjoy.
