Joy Isi Bewaji of ''Nigeria Entertainment Today'' praised the intepretation of roles by the top cast actors and stated that "What you would love about ''Guilty Pleasures'' is in the finesse of the characters, the subtly unravelling of the true story, and the absence of unnecessary or unplanned flashbacks. Moments of anticipation are captured in such flawless perfection and Ramsey who has managed to grow above the Nollywood ‘ahs’ and ‘nays’ into a more ‘Hollywoodic’ gesture of expertise launches the movie into realms of fulfilment.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://thenet.ng/2009/12/movie-review-guilty-pleasures/ | title=Movie Review: Guilty Pleasures | publisher=TheNet Ng | accessdate=13 April 2014 | author=Joy Isi Bewaji}}</ref> |
