Top of the Lake: China Girl - Season 2 | Ratings & Reviews

"The mystery may move from the top of the lake to the depths of the ocean, but the tension, turmoil and totally addictive drama remain the same..."

Hollywood ReporterHollywood Reporter

"Complex and daring..."

RogerEbert.comRogerEbert.com

"It's a potent, and at times deeply poetic, concoction."

VarietyVariety

"It's time to admit: this is Elisabeth Moss' world and we're just living in it."

New Zealand HeraldNew Zealand Herald

"As beautiful and soul-stirring as anything you'll see on any kind of screen this year."

IndieWireIndieWire

"Top of the Lake suggests the worst union between a run-of-the-mill network crime show and the rigid symbolism of Jane Campion's filmography."

Slant MagazineSlant Magazine

"Campion, Lee, and Moss have joined together to craft a shattering piece of storytelling; one that is entirely unique and painfully necessary."

Little White LiesLittle White Lies

"Elisabeth Moss is totally mesmerising, again..."

The GuardianThe Guardian

"This is why Top of the Lake is so singularly impactful and moving; Campion has an emotional comprehension that seems to effortlessly translate on screen and produce truly remarkable stories."

DeciderDecider

"It’s unlikely, depressing, bitter and instantly addictive."

Daily MailDaily Mail

"With the faults of the first season magnified, China Girl is probably more of an interesting failure than an outright mess — but not by much."

Village VoiceVillage Voice

"The emotions of the standard crime procedural are revenge, regret and obligation, but China Girl operates a deeper, primal level, and it is the psychological stakes that drive these incomplete people forward."

The AgeThe Age

"A terrific, combative performance from Nicole Kidman..."

The TimesThe Times

"I admire something this unafraid to risk. Something this rocky and defensive. And I wonder if anything on television has come closer to capturing an age of crude opposition."

A.V. ClubA.V. Club

"An exquisite sequel..."
