Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
BBC America is here to set the universe right again with its love/hate story about Hollywood's hot mess of a couple.

fresh:
Not only does it capture the essence of the two outsize icons of film and scandal, it also brings them in for a humanizing close-up.

fresh:
It's a film that asks a lot from West and Bonham Carter, who deliver time and again in roles that could have eaten them alive. Instead we feast.

fresh:
Bonham Carter offers up a sympathetic Liz who is in the process of squandering her talent; West makes Burton's brokenness seem like a noble resignation. And both seem surprised that each other's company is no longer the cure for what ails them.
– Hank Stuever,

fresh:
Bonham Carter has a firm hand on a fundamental conflict within Taylor, which is that she seems like such an impossibly elegant, self-possessed woman at some moments and like such an infuriating flake at others.
