When the moonless shadows of London give birth to a new nightmare, John Luther once again confronts the depths of human depravity. As a series of monstrous killings becomes more audacious, Luther and new recruit DS Catherine Halliday are confounded by a tangle of misdirection that seems to protect an unspeakable horror. But as the case brings him closer than ever to the nature of true evil, a reluctant Luther faces the ghosts of his own past. Striding back into the line of fire, he must choose who to protect, and who to sacrifice. Whatever his next move, it will change John Luther forever. (BBC)

As a little kid, I adored pudding, but more than eating from a full plate, I enjoyed hunting for scraps from the pot, those remnants that stuck to the bottom and walls of the container. I took perverse delight in it, and only because of that do I (hopefully) give the last season of Luther three stars - that way, I become immune to the visible effort to extract the last grains of commodity from the drying reservoir of minerals. Long ago, it lost the feeling of precision and cleverness, and now it just dutifully repeats the schemes that once excelled with the viewers. Even the return of Ruth Wilson no longer creates the same chemistry between John and his femme fatale. It's simply a mess in all aspects. But I will give it 50% because I really did like the stubborn black detective and his dangerous opponent.
