Entertainment Reviews:
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.

NPR
Unlike last year's miserable Liz & Dick Lifetime biopic, BBC America's Burton and Taylor takes a more mature and artful approach - even the title is more respectful - with a giddy Helena Bonham Carter and a wearily dignified Dominic West

TV Guide
Burton and Taylor succeeds thanks to its truncated timeline and intimate feel.

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.

It's difficult to gauge how much fascination viewers still have for the couple, but Burton and Taylor is as good as it gets.

Los Angeles Times
Rating: 3.5/4 --
BBC America is here to set the universe right again with its love/hate story about Hollywood's hot mess of a couple.
Chicago Sun-Times
Burton and Taylor distills the special pleasure those aging movie stars could still take in each other's company long after their passion was spent.
