    Luther is one of the most complex character I've ever seen. The movie is also tense, always keeping you at the edge of the seat. The antagonists are smart. Good film.

    Since Ebro isn’t aware, here is a new tip for him, all interviewers, and everyone - never give away key spoilers when talking about movies. It “spoils” and ruins the element of surprise for people who haven’t watched it yet. This is regarding Ebro talking about what the “Luther” character goes through.

    The wild part about "Luther" is that the BBC (UK TV) had some bomb episodes of that show, that I got to see years back!
    This was before Idris Elba blew up internationally, and so if you can still find old episodes you'll see a young Idris giving 100% on every case. His character had a wild cockney accent (his real voice), a long detective coat, he had sex with chicks, he had a crack head sister, and a huge intensity that kept you coming back as a viewer. Now it's a movie finally!
