和《大侦探波洛》那种精致优雅的破案不同，《骇人命案事件簿 第四季》把谋杀塞进了英国乡村的篱笆和教堂墓地——破案不是靠智力游戏，而是靠东奔西走排查邻里矛盾。每集两小时的篇幅足够把每个嫌疑人的古怪习惯和隐秘动机摊开来揉碎，适合喜欢《大侦探波洛》那种古典韵味、又不排斥一点冷幽默的观众。这一季的叙事节奏依然从容，镜头偏爱长满常春藤的篱笆和阴郁的教堂墓地，谋杀手法却往往出人意料——比如利用占星术布局，或是用童话故事掩盖罪证。如果你喜欢《大侦探波罗》那种文绉绉的推理，或者《小镇疑云》里那种表面平静下的暗流，这部就是你的菜。导演彼得·史密斯特会铺垫气氛，没有那种一惊一乍的吓人，全靠细节和对话推着走。适合喜欢在安静周末泡杯茶、边看边跟着推敲细节的观众，尤其对英式庄园和园艺有偏好的，这季有一集把毒药藏在玫瑰园里。
