not as good as all the hype

Fantastic!

Blistering performances.

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

I decided to watch this one due to the very high rating. However, I was totally disappointed. It is a nice detective story. Luther, although a good detective, cannot control his temper, and then gets always in trouble. Things get worse when he is trapped by a corrupt colleague of his, to take the blame for the murder of Luther's ex-wife. Now, that could be a cool story, however the characters are very shallow and the story makes logical leaps in order to move on to action. I won't judge why Luther cannot control his temper. That's the main thing of his character. However, I will judge the easiness with which his boss decided to act "professionally" and to judge him as guilty without a trial. You can say her character was made to be weak, but I don't buy it. It also felt so strange how the story is jumping, with Luther guessing and finding the culprit in each crime, like out of the blue. It seems they want to concentrate on the action (and the temper of Luther), but still, it always looked like Luther had seen the same crime scenes that we had seen, and choosing the criminal from the crowd like that. A few times action looks like it makes logical leaps too. Someone appears, some shooting from half a meter, but no one dies...Anyhow, it's not a bad show to watch, but its re-watch value is very low.

I had hard time even finishing the very first episode. Ruth Wilson looks obnoxious af. Too bad since Idris Elba's character was interesting to watch.

Really like the show and its characters, but I can't understand over half of what they are saying! I don't think it's a sound problem, I think the directors and actors need to take responsibilty for producing CLARITY in the delivery of the dialog. Not louder, just more clear. A little more will provide a LOT MORE in the dramatic telling of the most critical part....THE STORY!!!

Kolla in serien så får ni se ji8ol kkk. kkk pnummer.
