For anyone holding on to some latent hope that Idris Elba will be the next James Bond, I have some bad news: 'Luther: The Fallen Sun' puts (another) nail in that very firmly sealed coffin.

For anyone holding on to some latent hope that Idris Elba will be the next James Bond, I have some bad news: "Luther: The Fallen Sun" puts nail in that very firmly sealed coffin.

This was not an accidental moment, "Luther" creator Neill Cross has said. Elba even wondered if it was a bit too cheeky. But it's worth remembering that Elba doesn't need Bond. He's already got a moody, tortured bachelor with a talent for hunting bad guys. And Luther belongs exclusively to him. Serkis' character is a kind of gentleman psychopath, with his blown out James Spader in "Pretty in Pink" coif and maniacal smile. He's one of those villains for whom chaos, misery and gore are the point. David Robey is methodical, patient and unsparing -- he'll even go so far as to befriend the families of his victims after the fact.

But the good news is that it's a pretty fun, tense ride up until that point with some stunning shots of London at night. Elba slips back into Luther like no time has passed, though he has taken on some superhero-adjacent talents here, evident in his escape from jail -- a sequence that is somehow both violent and cartoonish. It's not an easy or straightforward role, but Elba makes it look so.
