Somewhere In The Ether…

Just a quickie reminder that the new film (yes, a full length feature film!) Luther: The Fallen Sun is in cinemas from 24th February.

Even better, if you don’t wish to fork out the ticket price, it lands on Netflix on the 10th March!

Yay!

Who else is looking forward to it?

I'm signing us up for Netflix for a month just to watch this.

Saves a cinema trip and we can slouch and watch on the big(ish) screen at home, mere metres away from the fridge.

I watched it last night well most of it and I didn't actually think it was much good. Decided to turn it off and go to sleep in the end as I found I didn't care what was going to happen. I doubt I'll go back to finish it.

Somewhere In The Ether…

I just finished it

My verdict (spoiler free): Certainly not Luther’s best adventure and it absolutely required one to seriously suspend one’s disbelief in parts but it was nonetheless great to see Idris back in the iconic role; a bit like welcoming back an old friend

I loved the series but wasn't a huge fan of the film..

Just a bit too far fetched in places. Some scenes were gratuitously gruesome too.

Stil, it wasn't quite as bad as some shite I watch on Netflix tbf.

I watched it. I thought it was possibly the worst film of the year.

Totally unrelateable and totally unrelated to John Luther the brooding unconventional admirable character in the series.

Best actors in the film were serkis and crowler

They always try too hard adapting TV shows to films and this is just odd, Luther is now like Batman, he can get in and out of jail in seconds and the bad guy is like a super villain...it's not the TV show we loved that was set in some reality

Who is it that demands "we have to go bigger, I want epic car crashes, fights with twenty hardened criminals at a time, divers, helicopters and mega villains" - why do they think that's what we want?

I never wanted Idris Elba to be James Bond as he's too good an actor, but now he's sold himself out for this shite.

Nell and I are huge Luther fans and we were really excited to see the film.

Imagine our disappointment upon discovering what a huge pile of turd it turned out to be.

Such a waste of an amazing cast and no Alice.

I noticed a lot of James Bond references during this movie, maybe he was trying to answer the Will he be the next bond question?

it was a sad movie with no direction such a shame.

Yes it can definietly be watched as a stand alone, I enjoyed it but didn't think it was anywhere near as good as the tv series.

I cannot stress enough that it was a leap too far and an utter failure. If you were expecting 'Luther' you will be bitterly disappointed.
