The Guilty (2021)

Joe is an L.A. cop stuck on 9-1-1 duty pending his hearing for shooting a teen. He gets sucked into the drama of a caller: she's been abducted by her ex, her children are now at home alone, and she's scared. Joe goes into overdrive trying to force everyone to make this their number one priority, making a lot of assumptions and breaking a lot of rules and generally demonstrating why being a 9-1-1 operator is not an "anyone can do it" role.

Even if the script were decent, it would've been a challenge to care since all of the drama (except Joe's fits of pique) are off-camera. Since the script is threadbare, this winds up just being boring and ridiculous.
