[[Nollywood Reinvented]] gave it a 3 star rating and was full of praises for the acting, costume and soundtrack, it went further to say "Not a story-line that fell from heaven exactly and neither is it one that has been photocopied till its death. Nse and Omoni’s stories both had their aspects of originality and their aspects of photocopy. However, the overall work was a ‘masterpiece’ (I’d say mistresspiece though)"<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.nollywoodreinvented.com/2012/05/guilty-pleasures.html | title=Guilty Pleasures Review on NR | publisher=Nollywood Reinvented | accessdate=13 April 2014}}</ref>
