Short and Simple Review by WubsTheFadger

Luther is a dark and disturbing crime drama. Each episode has a linear story that mostly deals with Luther's personal life. Each episode also has a criminal who is murdering people in very disturbing ways. I found the stories to be very good mostly because the series has great characters.

The acting is very good. Idris Elda performs exceptionally. Ruth Wilson also performs spectacularly as the psychopath Alice Morgan. She is so seductive and disturbingly sexy. Dermot Crowley, Michael Smiley, Paul McGann, and Warren Brown all perform very well. Nikki Amuka-Bird performs the worst in my eyes. She is ugly, has weird lips, and her characters sucked. I wish Rose Leslie was in more episodes besides the final two. She is such a great actress and she is so beautiful.

The pacing in most episodes is slow and the runtime for each episode is a little long

Pros: Dark and disturbing stories, great characters, amazing performances by Idris Elda and Ruth Wilson, and all around good acting

Cons: Slow pacing, the episodes are long, Nikki Amuka-Bird is ugly and her character sucked, and I wish that Rose Leslie was in more of the episodes because she is a great actress and she is beautiful

Overall Rating: 8.4
