giannaormerod The teenagers in this were perfect, totally 3 dimensional and realistic to their circumstances. It doesn't feel plot line convenient that they were friends solely down to the way they interacted together.Could've done with a 5th final episode though just to give more substance to the final drama.

Khun Kru Mark The writers had a great idea and ruined it with a horribly rushed wrap- up that made no sense and was just preposterous. The homicidal teen Sam played by Jack Rowan is a role that must be this young man's front door key to the big time. He's absolutely first-rate as the teen whose clever facade is gently chipped away at by unfolding events. He's devilishly convincing as the smiling, genial menace with murderous designs on his mind.Incapable of empathy, he has learned to behave somewhat normally. But when things don't go his way, the chinks in his armor are exposed. And on top of that, he gives in to his homicidal urges rather too easily.His mom works as a nurse in an old people's ward which gives him a steady supply of victims... but when he finds out that his dad's not really dead things start to spiral out of control.There are some genuinely unnerving scenes as Sam becomes increasingly careless and the body count rises. The photography and music add to the drama in a good way...Unfortunately, even the (potentially award winning?) performance from Rowan and the clever production values can't excuse the clunker of an ending... which I won't spoil for you as you might disagree with me and think it's great! In which case you'll be cursing me for having read this review before watching it for yourself. But in my opinion, the writers got bored and just added an episode of 'The Bill' to tie this one up!A special mention to Daniel Mays who had to act the part of Bill, the most limp wristed crybaby in Britain. There's no way this sorry sack of femininity was ever a high-ranking police detective. It's difficult to figure out how this man-child even became a father! 'Born To Kill' could have been a spectacular and memorable series but the silly ending consigned it to the forgettable television dumpster of good tries. Bloody shame that. I actually feel a bit ripped off, having been drawn in so well by the first three episodes!

jwayiml It's a slow burner, but stick with it! You'll be swept along on a wave of anticipation and prickly evil Superb casting melancholic music and demonic lighting create an atmosphere of swirling impending threat. The acting is spot on, and the camera work deserves recognition, it's a great piece of work. Can't wait for the finale!

vicstevinson Jack Rowan delivers an astonishing performance and has commanding presence. He posses heartthrob looks and an intriguing ability to sell this character's treachery and quirks. What an amazing feat for a young talent.Romola Garai is surprisingly convincing in this role that is 10 years older than she is. Her character compartmentalizes and as situations become overwhelming, Garai keeps the lid on the melodrama and cuts to the heart of her character.The title is so very on-the-nose and unfortunate. The show itself is an incredible journey into troubled psychology masked by teenage angst and turmoil.
