Relationships are tested when a child goes missing in this drama that takes place in two timelines -- 2008, when the child first disappears, and 2013. In the hours following an annual neighborhood barbecue, young Callum Reid goes missing. The neighborhood is changed forever. The nightmare resumes on the eve of the fifth anniversary of the disappearance when the boy's body is found, buried just yards away from his family's home, and a new investigation begins.

Keith Uhlich The Hollywood Reporter 10/26/2015
Drama, drama everywhere! Would that any of it was genuinely compelling. Go to Full Review Mike Hale New York Times 10/23/2015
[The] familiarity is a problem, but the bigger problems are the dreary tastefulness of Edward Bazalgette's direction and the thin, inconsequential nature of the mystery, which limps to a particularly unsatisfying conclusion. Go to Full Review Chloe Hamilton Independent (UK) 10/14/2015
The similarities between last night's The Guilty and award winning ITV thriller Broadchurch were glaringly obvious. Missing child? Tick. Attractive mother? Tick. Brooding father? Tick. Detective trying to juggle work and family life? Tick, tick, tick. Go to Full Review Leigh Paatsch Herald Sun (Australia) 09/27/2019
4.5/5
Mark this down as a total must-see. This consummately riveting Danish thriller puts you on hold, then puts you in a hold. Go to Full Review Tom Conroy Media Life 10/20/2015
Although fans of traditional detective fiction may not get what they expected, the emotional payoff more than compensates. Go to Full Review Christopher Stevens Daily Mail (UK) 10/14/2015
This promised to be a masterful drama, and it didn't disappoint. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Alain E @AlainE Mar 17 A very well done psychological police drama. As a typical example of the genre nobody has an uncomplicated situation. The female detective, who investigates the disappearance of a toddler, is also a mother who refuses to accept that her son is autistic. There is a parade of red herrings regarding the little boy who was lost, until finally we learn the truth. However the characters are plausible and at no point I felt that the elements supplied were completely unrealistic. Good cinematography and acting. On BritBox. See more Read all reviews
