A Guilty Conscience is a well-paced legal thriller about a prickly defense attorney representing a single mother accused of killing her 7-year-old daughter. Vivid character personalities and occasionally comedic moments help make this movie compelling.

A thoroughly engrossing court drama that represents Hong Kong commercial filmmaking at its very finest, the film features a rollicking turn by Dayo Wong as a barrister who relocates his moral compass to help a single mother framed for a killing.

Rated: 4.5/5

Even the story line/plot was predictable, but it did came with the turning point at the end. What the murderer did was actually reverted with some previous scenes. Expected, but a little twist at the end.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

A great HK film. A very on-target HK courtroom drama regarding a worthy case. Script, performances, and direction all in sync.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

With Dayo Wong's naturally compelling performance, A Guilty Conscience successfully transforms into a legal revenge drama that captivates the audience from start to finish.
