loved the Luther series on BBC now its a film on Netflix. I thought it was really good as i expected...bit on the 'sick' side i suppose . The imagination of the writers !! Anyone else watched it?

I watched it at the cinema last week.
Enjoyed it immensely after I got used to the loud sound and the width of the screen.

I watched it on Netflix yesterday it was a good watch but it was also a difficult watch.

I started watching it but it was a bit too horrendous for me. Just the man in the painting strung up by his arms unsettled me at first. I tried for a bit longer but gave up quite quickly.

On our list to watch.

Watching now and it's keeping me on the edge of my seat!!! The Internet has a lot to answer for in terms of how it helps criminal activities!!!!

We watched it on Netflix recently, and we loved it

It worries me that people can keep watching and enjoying sick stuff where people are being tortured and killed. And it worries me that children are growing up in a world where the media is so obsessed with murder and torture.

We watched this on Netflix.
It’s dark and sick.

Watched it a few days ago on Neyflix with DD and SIL - none of us thought much of it. Storyline very far-fetched - lots of 'holes' in plot!

Watched it a couple of nights ago. Stuck it out to the end but found the whole plot very implausible. Not a very relaxing watch at all.

Some of us find the news on tv far more disturbing

But people watch the news to be informed on what is going on in the world, not for entertainment.

I watched thought it was far fetched and went on too long.

I couldn't watch it ,I liked the series but this was too dark for me .The idea that there are people who pay to watch killings in real life fills me with horror .

It was unpleasant, poorly acted and the ending utterly ridiculous.

But people watch the soaps, to be entertained - with the miserable storylines, at a time when children are still up
