WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie

geocapital 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.

olaf_oj Luther throws every detective show cliche at the screen, with added over the top acting, sloppy writing, cringeworthy dialogue, editing that is all over the place, and irritatingly ignoring every known police protocol. Having just finished watching Happy Valley I couldn't believe the massive drop in quality evident with Luther. So disappointed.

Raihan Rafeekh I'm still on the first season, and i haven't written many reviews. Ghe character of Ruth is just plainly absurd. It's like she is a psychic. Unbearable to watch, I'm watching it for the saks of passing this weekend.

Parag Deshpande British Crime Drama shows are really intriguing to watch. With such panache and nail-biting plots. 'Luther' does that, but only at the start.It opens with Ruth Wilson in a murder scene, where her parents are dead, and she's charged with the crime. Although she's shown as a very brilliant, narcissistic woman, as the series goes on, the plot goes sideways. I mean, there is not much of a connection with the random crimes that are committed, which Luther, played by Idris Elba. So, the main plot is not about her brilliance at all. Ans yes, its about Luther, how he bullies people, brilliantly diagnoses crime scenes, and has a bad married life. All of which I don't bother minding. What I do mind is, When his wife is killed and he's framed. By is colleague.This is completely absurd and unnecessary,I mean, what the hell. First of all, all of a sudden his colleague is going on about committing crimes and now frames him. Why in the name of God ? Couldn't you just stick to normal story lines and work your way around like normal Cops do ?This show gets so twisted, it reflects how bad the human mind can think. And how worse the writers minds are. Just for the sake of a bloody twist, you've ruined a good storyline.This is a really waste of a good storyline. When it becomes really and completely absurd, is when you know, this just isn't worth it anymore. I won't say don't watch it. All I'm saying is, if you do, you'll be very surprised and then you'll just want to throw the remote in the writers' head for such absurdity!
