When a troubled classmate named Connor (<a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/celebrity/colton_ryan">Colton Ryan</a>) nabs one of those letters, then later commits suicide, Connor’s parents believe Evan is the best friend they never knew their son had, and the misunderstanding quickly spirals out of Evan’s control. Critics say that the central premise of the story, which was already problematic on stage, is even more egregiously toxic now, and instead of embracing its inherent darkness, Chbosky and Co. insist upon wringing inspirational platitudes from it, much to the film’s detriment. The impressive cast also includes Kaitlyn Dever, <a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/celebrity/amy_adams">Amy Adams</a>, and <a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/celebrity/julianne_moore">Julianne Moore</a>, and the musical numbers translate fairly well onto celluloid, but reviews say the whole enterprise feels a little tone deaf, which robs it of some of its power. It’s still probably worth a watch for fans of the original, but be prepared for a different experience here.</p> <p> </div> </div> </div> <hr /> <div class='apple-news-media-block clearfix '> <a class='poster-wrap' href='https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_guilty_2021'> <div><img class='article_poster' src='https://resizing.flixster.com/YxL5_R2mXPAIes0tdOVizUINexY=/fit-in/180x240/v2/https://resizing.flixster.com/moBjoNmhos7KxDbrgAG4PVBEfh0=/ems.cHJkLWVtcy1hc3NldHMvbW92aWVzLzUzNjRlMjVkLTU0YTEtNDVlYi05NjcyLWU4ZDVjZDYzODcyMy5qcGc=' alt='' sborder='' style='border-color: #EEEEEE; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px;'></div> </a> <div class='content-wrap'> <div class='header'> <p class='title'><strong><a href='https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_guilty_2021'>The Guilty</a> <span class='year'>(2021)</span></strong></p> <p class='score'> <img class='apple-critic-score-icon' src='https://images.fandango.com/cms/assets/bffe0ff0-d359-11ea-b2c2-d92a57d89c3a--fresh.png' width='16' height='16' /> <strong style='margin-right: 10px;'>74%</strong> </p> </div> <div class='details'> </p> <p>It’s usually a pretty risky proposition to center a film on a single actor in a single location, but fantastic results are possible (see: 2010’s <a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/buried"><em>Buried</em></a> or 2013’s <em><a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/locke">Locke</a></em>). The latest to make the attempt is <strong><em><a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_guilty_2021">The Guilty</a></em></strong> — which is itself a direct remake of the <a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_guilty_2018">2018 Danish film of the same name</a>. The new film, releasing in theaters this week and streaming on Netflix next week, is directed by <a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/celebrity/antoine_fuqua">Antoine Fuqua</a> and stars Jake Gyllenhaal in the central role, Joe Baylor, an L.A. cop relegated to 9-1-1 dispatch duty who takes a call from a woman in the midst of a kidnapping. As Joe attempts to ascertain the woman’s whereabouts and get to the bottom of her story, he gradually learns that not everything is as it seems. Critics say <em>The Guilty</em> isn’t quite as gripping as its predecessor, but Antoine Fuqua knows his way around a tense, gritty thriller, and Jake Gyllenhaal brings his A-game to the table in a riveting performance that holds the film together.</p> <p> </div> </div> </div> <hr /> <h2><strong>What’s New on TV</strong></h2> <div class='apple-news-media-block clearfix '> <a class='poster-wrap' href='https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/midnight_mass/s01'> <div><img class='article_poster' src='https://resizing.flixster.com/4DnA_EwRVnGhOZmpUNC9vWy7KiE=/fit-in/120x160/v2/https://resizing.flixster.com/v9w5_qBb_vzses5lJqDc5_5C108=/ems.cHJkLWVtcy1hc3NldHMvdHZzZWFzb24vUlRUVjEwMTIyOTgud2VicA==' alt='' sborder='' style='border-color: #EEEEEE; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px;'></div> </a> <div class='content-wrap'> <div class='header'> <p class='title'><strong><a href='https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/midnight_mass/s01'>Midnight Mass: Limited Series</a> <span class='year'>(2021)</span></strong></p> <p class='score'> <img class='apple-critic-score-icon' src='https://images.fandango.com/cms/assets/c6672520-d359-11ea-a15f-bdf29fa24277--certified-fresh.png' width='16' height='16' /> <strong style='margin-right: 10px;'>87%</strong> </p> </div> <div class='details'> </p> <p>An ambitious meditation on grief and faith that is as gorgeous as it is unsettling, <em><a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/midnight_mass/s01"><strong>Midnight Mass’</strong></a></em>s slow boil is a triumph of terror that will leave viewers shaking – and thinking – long after the credits roll.</p> <p> </div> </div> </div> <hr /> <div class='apple-news-media-block clearfix '> <a class='poster-wrap' href='https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/star_wars_visions/s01'> <div><img class='article_poster' src='https://resizing.flixster.com/jyQGEGllz56YECJPeu-FDEvl9LM=/fit-in/120x160/v2/https://resizing.flixster.com/-D0HYDV3vPpktf49gy93sYZu0jE=/ems.cHJkLWVtcy1hc3NldHMvdHZzZWFzb24vYjU3NDUyYzAtNmNhOS00YmEyLWE5MGMtZDc5NWY3ZTBjZTc2LmpwZw==' alt='' sborder='' style='border-color: #EEEEEE; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px;'></div> </a> <div class='content-wrap'> <div class='header'> <p class='title'><strong><a href='https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/star_wars_visions/s01'>Star Wars: Visions: Volume 1</a> <span class='year'>(2021)</span></strong></p> <p class='score'> <img class='apple-critic-score-icon' src='https://images.fandango.com/cms/assets/c6672520-d359-11ea-a15f-bdf29fa24277--certified-fresh.png' width='16' height='16' /> <strong style='margin-right: 10px;'>96%</strong> </p> </div> <div class='details'> </p> <p>Gorgeously animated and wildly creative, <a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/star_wars_visions/s01"><strong><em>Visions</em></strong></a> is an eclectic, but wholly enjoyable collection of <a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/franchise/star_wars_saga"><em>Star Wars</em></a> stories that breathe new life into the galaxy.</p> <p> </div> </div> </div> <hr /> <p><em>Thumbnail image by Universal Pictures</em></p> <p><a href="https://apple.news/Tey6JRlfvQ4mnS2lJ9pyV7w?subscribe=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em><strong>On an Apple device?
