Death Note Live Action Movie Review
Alright. I went off to catch Death Note at the Golden Village cinemas in Tampines Mall yesterday, having just minimal expectation and hoping that it’ll at least be an average looking movie. The movie was quite good however there are some good and bad parts of course. But before that, I just want to say, I’m pissed with certain people in the cinema, acting rowdy and all and also a bunch of “know it all just because I’ve read the manga” bastards trying to spoil the story for people who are new and not know what it is about. Can’t they just shut up and watch the damn show first and do the discussion later? Then again, I have people who had no spoilers, leaving the cinema clueless. Perhaps it’s a show that requires you to analyse? Ah well~ To those who haven’t watched it, let’s hope there’s no such spoilers for you when you’re watching it.
L looked like some kid that loves to eat sweets and picking up stuffs with only 2 fingers. He also had the impression of a immature loser and kept biting his nails like a kid whenever he lost. What happened to the genius that I knew from the manga with the superb deduction skills?
Ryuk also was great for the CG design and all. But however, he was made into an appletart. Seriously, I know we need some humour for the show, but not till that extent. Reminds me of the Mac-Death God I posted up when I did the review on the anime.
Quite a few changes in the show from the manga. Like how Light killed his girlfriend, making him an even more complex character. Expression his hate for the criminals getting away from the law, how he want to be the new “God” of the world to determine who is deem fit to live and wanting to achieve his objectives without fail were good too.
Oh yeah, Misa and Light’s sister were cute in the show too. Wonder why Misa mentioned Ai Otsuka in her TV show anyway? I bet Tsubaki would say something like, “Aya Hirano is better!!!”. Oh yeah, Tsubaki, pray hard there’s no spoilers during the time you catch the show too.
Another thing, Raito’s room is so cool and nice. Wish my room was organised and neat like his. T_T
My speculations after the movie? I’ll see a bunch or retards carrying black notebooks and declaring that it is a Death Note and starts scribbling stuffs. And just before the craze dies out, the 2nd movie will be released and those retards will convince more people to join them in their amazing feat and the whole “trend” of carrying black notebooks will once again be revived.
