The crimes were all set up for paid viewing on the d*rk web and the viewers were coming up with outlandish ways for the captives to be murdered.It seems I'm in a minority of one but I thought it was a steaming pile of garbage.
The villain was so ridiculously over the top that it was almost cartoonish. There was no explanation for what had led to his bizarre series of crimes and the ending was laughable.
The only saving grace was Idris Elba!
I got that bit but I felt there could have been more background on what happened to his wife and what turned him into such an evil, sadistic bastard.The crimes were all set up for paid viewing on the d*rk web and the viewers were coming up with outlandish ways for the captives to be murdered.
When I worked for the military, cellphone was standard and I use it myself now. But get your point.I was gripped until they rocked up to the North Pole in normal clothes to Anna and Elsa’s castle. Most disappointed Olaf didn’t make an appearance. I much prefer the normal series before it got “ Americanised” since when do we use the word “cellphone” I think the plot was amazing but got ruined by the unrealistic drama sadly.
Completely agree. I think any future ones are only going to get worse sadly. As for the defender scene that was like a car advert at one point. Amazing how he can plunge into ice cold water and survive, least if all with two serious stab wounds. I’m gutted a really good series got ruined by unrealistic, unnecessary drama. Wonder if idris feels the same.When I worked for the military, cellphone was standard and I use it myself now. But get your point.
How did the baddy transport the daughter to Norway, also his victims? There's no direct ferry from the UK for one thing. All a bit far fetched and the ending turned into a Bond film.
His coat deserves a BAFTA. The Volvo a best supporting act award.
Hahaha that bit confused me so much I said to my hubby Jesus why is Kent looking like the North Pole then bugger me they’re in Anna and elsas house. All felt very rushed. I wanted more backstory about his wife too.I got that bit but I felt there could have been more background on what happened to his wife and what turned him into such an evil, sadistic bastard.
Also, without giving too much away, I wanted to know how he got on a Dover ferry then, five minutes later, arrived in the Arctic Circle.
I totally thought it was Alice when the mum was visiting him in prison. I agree it started out with such a chilling all be it very sick plot, then just went bloody rushed and unbelievable. All the previous seasons of Luther stayed with me for a long time after. This one just leaves me with sooo many questions.Just finished watching and it saddens me to say, but I don’t think it works as a movie. It feels too big, like the budget was all on the locations and stunts. Luthers character was completely lost in this film. I feel like if you’ve never seen the tv show then you might be left pretty bored by this and underwhelmed by the main character.
I don’t know why they didn’t just do another series. It works so much better as a tv show.
I liked the inclusion of Schenk, it definitely needed a familiar face to give Luther some sort of background. I was almost expectingalice to pop up at some point and save the day
it wasn’t awful but it wasn’t amazing. I probably wouldn’t watch it again. Unlike the tv show which I’ve watched multiple times.
The scene at the beginning wherehe lured the parents to the house only to burn the hanging bodies in front of them was absolutely chilling. Couldn’t get it out of my head
my favourite bit was the ending when the theme music played. Shame it wasn’t the original though
Yep. I thought the same. How did he make it through all that?!Overall I really enjoyed this and I’m going to go back and rewatch the tv series because it’s been a few years. However….I know it’s all unrealistic, but….stab wound 1 superglued and taped up. Then stabbed again with a larger knife, with precision and knife pulled out. These two wounds alone would have incapacitated him. Then being dragged along by the car and fighting. Then plunging into a sub zero lake. The cold shock for sure would have got them. I know, I know….it’s a film
I started rewatching after watching the film. All episodes available on BBC iPlayer xI really wanted to rematch Luther before watching the film but couldn't find it anywhere.
Great thank youI started rewatching after watching the film. All episodes available on BBC iPlayer x
