the worst adaption I´ve ever seen. Light, a stupid teenage student, uses the Death Note to impress Mia, a girl he likes. They go rampage and kill criminals. L is getting emotional while it all turns into some comedy/love drama, because Light didn´t want to murder his own father. If they changes ALL the names and maybe the title, the movie wouldn´t be that bad. But if you expect a Death Note movie, you´re only getting dissapointed. I don´t even mind the "white whasing". I don´t mind, that L is black, Light is called Turner or Mia is just some random classmate of him. There personalities are all completely different and "Kira" is just a boring person.

In this adaptation, Light screams like a girl. That's all I can say.

This is almost on comical levels of adaption and overall movie quality similar to The Last Airbender and Dragonball Evolution. The only slightly good thing about this is Willem Dafoe as Ryuk and he only has like 15 lines. Don't watch it. It's a bullshit adaption and a shit movie. Don't reward Netflix by watching this.

Garbage. Bad interpretations, so much blah-blah-blah. I wasn't expecting that *this* was equal to the anime, but this was so terrible, I wish I could forget it. 1) Ryuuk was the best actor. 2) How can be L so freaking emotional if he is a super trained detective since 6 years old? 3) The character of Light's father is only good until middle of the movie. 4) Mia. Terrible. Makes me desire to vomit. Urgh.

_Death Note_ - _★★★★_

While different from the anime, and surely the manga, Death Note is an enjoyable adaption. If you watched the anime, you know that the series’s first episode titled “Rebirth” starts out in the Shinigami Realm. We unfortunately do not see this scene or ever visi More

Despite tentative hopes, the Netflix live action movie for Death Note was painful to watch. Watching with my husband and another friend who was a fan of the original anime, we switched it off after 10 minutes soon after Light's girly screaming. I did manage to play the rest on my own while multi-tas More
