Slant Magazine
Slant Magazine"The Guilty is never boring, but halfway through you've just had enough of it."

New York Post
New York Post"Loses some of the hard-hitting edges of the original."

Bloody Disgusting
Bloody Disgusting"It's all a smoke show, all flash-bang complexity with no soul."

Rolling Stone
Rolling Stone"(Gyllenhaal) builds to an all-caps-plus-exclamation-point performance; that he does so without losing his grip - on us or the character - is some kind of miracle."

The New York Times
The New York Times"(Gyllenhaal) sells the urgency and high stakes with aplomb."

Stuff
Stuff"The Guilty is a heavy, stressful watch, and if it isn't too far-fetched, it's at least a little bit fetched."
—
Decider
Decider"Gyllenhaal flexes all his considerable acting muscles in this taut, tense thriller. One of the better remakes you'll see."
