“This claustrophobic thriller … is tautly plotted, precisely paced and grippingly played.” – David Parkinson, Empire
“With its single setting and real-time story, The Guilty is a brilliant genre exercise, a cinematic study in tension, sound design, and how to make a thrilling movie with a limited tool box.” – Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com
