	Author	Review
United Kingdom	Luke Buckmaster The Guardian	"This is a crazier, full throttle, more literally colourful dream, brightness and contrast cranked through the roof (...) The show looks amazing"	POS
United States	David Rooney The Hollywood Reporter	"Hats off to the creators of this glossy six-part TV adaptation (...) for departing decisively from the original model with a bold plunge into 21st-century genre waters."	POS
United States	Pilot Viruet Variety	"A darker, more mysterious, and extended version that manages to feel updated for our time while still keeping the original 1900 setting"	POS
United States	Ben Travers IndieWire	"In the end, neither the lush looks nor committed performances are enough to overcome the balance issues and general bloat."	NEG
United States	Troy Patterson The New Yorker	"A haunting evocation of late adolescence and all its mysteries"	POS
United States	Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe	"A transfixing tale (...) There’s something spectacularly mesmerizing about Natalie Dormer"	POS
United States	Brian Tallerico rogerebert.com	"While it’s solid enough to warrant a look, it’s also a bit too inconsistent and bloated"	NEU
United States	Matt Zoller Seitz Vulture	"The series’ control over tone is impressive (...) It’s a sensory experience first and foremost, forever trying to depict events in the most clever, sensuous, or surprising way possible"	POS
