I recall only Eragon being such an unfaithful, unrightful and almost offensive adaptation to a very clever and deep story.See at Amazon What's already hit Prime Video this month Ultimately, this is the perfect example on how an adaptation of a good source material can simply suck. That said, Ryuk appeared for about 4 minutes, so there wasn't much there. Williem Dafoe's voice sounded exactly like the original Ryuk's.

Sadly, the movie didn't allow the actors to perform their characters rightfully. L sometimes used the anime character's same line delivery, Light seemed capable of behaving as a bloodthirsty, dark and evil character. The only positive note I could find in all of this is that sometimes both L and Light's actor delivered scenes which made me suggest that they where up to the roles, if the original anime was to be followed. The themes of moral ambiguity and killing powers make it anyways a very dark story to tell. That wouldn't mean that it had to be necessarily a boring film, or a non-R rated one. Death note should have been adapted in a slightly slower paced film, and had minimal gore (most of people died by heart attack). And I came to realise that nothing that happened felt relevant to the whole storyline. The speed of this film is so fast paced that, by when I arrived to the 1 hour mark, I could not believe that we had forty minutes left. Death Note: Movie Clip - Light Meets Ryuk. Ultimately, the film settles for a needless and overly bloody gore feast. Death Note benefits from director Adam Wingards distinctive eye and a talented cast. Instead, when the movie finished, it turned out to be just a rushed sequence of events, most of which seemed incoherent if seen next to the anime, which was a very clever story. Truth is, this movie had also a very low runtime in order to cover up the plot well, it might have needed an extra 40 minutes (so a 2h 30m film), but it would have needed an entirely different plot. Ryuk (who I thought would be a practical effect and not CGI, as instead it sadly proved to be) had more importance. The anime mostly focused on L and Light's intellectual fight, battles of tricks and making one and another be unsure about what his intentions are.

I have the feeling that they didn't understand at all what was the series about. Death Note's film adaptation chose this second route. Changching the plot should be always for the benefit of it, and not to overly simplify the story and to take out some of it core aspects. When the source material is well written, I don't think that departing from it is the right choice. At times it had its cheesiness, but still worked pretty well. Because I really just got into it and don't plan on watching the anime again soon, I don't consider myself a fan (never watched animes before, by the way), but I reckon it was a very clever series. Prior to the film, I watched in about three days the entire Death Note series. That was the case with Alien: covenant, for example.

I notice that many reviewers seem to complain much about any movie is released. I'm often on the defending party for films.
