2 stars (Good Try) Excellent props/costumes depicting the period. It lifts a notch when Eva Green is on camera. ~Tubbs

4 stars (Very Good) I have a new favourite actor: Rory Kinnear. He plays the creature and is both horrifying and moving. (Does he appear in the second series?) I initially had my doubts about this series, but it got me. And the acting is consistently very good. ~MJL
