I enjoyed the subtle social commentary that in this American remake, the police at large immediately support Kira's extrajudicial slaughter of suspected criminals.

Holy crap the Darkside Blues guy writes some good stuff. Reminds me of Clive Barker with some action mixed in. 90s sexy gory horror at its finest.

Death Note has always been overrated. Except for OP 2. OP 2 has always been underrated. "BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!"

Watari was a loving alias in the anime lol. His real name was Walter or something e: It was actually something incredibly stupid. "True Name: Quillsh Wammy"

Honestly being called Quilsh Wammy is the best way to avoid being killed by the Death Note at all because no one would think of writing that

Death Note had a bit of a problem with naming non-Japanese characters in general, really.

like honestly it seems like the sticking point is based primarily on why you're watching the movie I give zero fucks about the fact that it's adapting Death Note because, while I like the DN anime and manga, they're not like my absolute favorites or anything and it's been a long rear end time anyhow (jesus I think I watched DN in high school actually) however, finding out that it was an Adam Wingard joint got me kind of hype because that dude's movies are extremely my poo poo, The Guest owned. then I found out that the second unit director was Jason Eisener, of Hobo with a Shotgun fame, and that Wingard basically just told him "go hog wild," and got insanely goddamn hype because Hobo with a Shotgun is one of my favorite movies. and it is absolutely the result of those two guys directing it and Wingard telling Eisener to go hog the gently caress wild on everything he shot, so there was basically no possible way I was gonna hate it, even if it was literally making GBS threads on every individual page of the manga. like it could have been Dragonball Evolution levels of "bad adaptation" and, as long as that was still intact, I'd still have probably dug the gently caress out of it. Willem Dafoe absolutely goddamn killing it as Ryuk helped, and honestly I thought the actors for Light and Mia did extremely well with their roles too, even if those roles were pretty different than in the original (oddly enough, they kinda reminded me of the protagonists of Future Diary more than the original Light and Misa). meanwhile, if you're watching it because you're a DN fan... ho-lee poo poo

Hi. Not really a big fan of Death Note, but I saw the movie. On its own merits, as its own thing, I woukd still consider DN a bad film. I'll agree William did an excellent job as Ryuk, and L was an enjoyable character too, and most scenes his actor did a good job. And yeah, a lot of the effects were neat, I'll give it that. However, my main gripe with the movie is the script and character dialogue in most scenes is pretty loving atrocious, and the acting for pretty much all of the other characters (especially Mia and Light's Dad) sucked. The ending is also bullshit considering Light Turner, who clearly has no common sense throughout the film, manages to 7th Dimensional Chess manipulate everything to fall into place for his happy ending. It's not bottom of the barrel by any means, but it's definitely on the bad side of movies. (Also, just a personal gripe with it, the movie was trying way too hard to be edgy; not only did you have tons of Final-Destination-style deaths, but constant F and S bombs, as well as interspersed sex scenes/tit shots)

The best thing I can say about it so far is it's giving me a hankering to revisit the original.

Okay this loving climax. This movie is a big ol' airport novel of a movie. It's not particularly great, or even very good, but it'll carry you through an hour and a half. Waffleman_ fucked around with this message at 02:03 on Aug 31, 2017 |
