Killing Eve finale review, Culture Whisper
Endings are hard, and the Killing Eve season three finale makes that clear. We can’t talk about the vitals of the episode, out of respect for spoiler guidelines. It’s reasonable: no one wants anything ruined. Unfortunately, this ending is ruined already. If you were disappointed by season two’s symmetrical cliffhanger, this'll only serve to irritate you more.
Given the quality of the episodes wedged between start and finish, this critic feels betrayed by their ultimate destination. Writer/show-runner Suzanne Heathcote pursued deeper character examinations, creating more layers to the stylish archetypes established and perfected by Phoebe Waller-Bridge.
Carolyn (Fiona Shaw) has been given extra shading, growing into a more enjoyable and heart-wrenching presence; Villanelle (Jodie Comer) received a veiled but intriguing backstory, travelling back to her family in Mother Russia.
