Light supposedly shows it to some random girl to get in her pants, and even takes it out during gym class in front of everyone.
9.5/10.
Wingard delivers a deliciously 80s take on the anime filled with superb style and gravitas. The actors are fantastic, each with his/her own unique cadence. Short Term 12 Lakeith Stanfield steals the show with his super eccentric "L" detective. Wolff is also great, constantly emoting and inundating every frame with a performance both cerebral and physical. Dafoe is AWESOME as the Death God. ****ing awesome.
The pacing and storytelling kept me engaged and never lost me. Once I reached the climax, I realized I was completely engrossed in the world Wingard crafted. The chase between Light and "L" is ****ing gold.
Tattersall's cinematography is again a massive throwback to movies from Wingard's fav decade. Lots of contrast and artificial light piercing through the night. The Homecoming dance was wonderfully morbid.
The music is intoxicating, which is a key component in Wingard's style (The Guest was filled with equally delicious tracks).
This is a ****ing great Death Note adaptation and one I could easily picture coming out in '87.
Lmao . Ok I'm sorry . The chase between light and L was completely horrid. They had one damn convo in the coffee shop and light pretty much revealed who he was while L lost his cool. It took a giant **** on the adaption . Are you sure you watched the American movie and not the Japanese version. Cause what I saw was lazy writing, horrible dialogue and ****** music choices. I really can't see how you can be a fan of the anime and like this.
He shows the death note to a girl to get in her pants ...... I mean come on dude. The anime light was a cold calculating killer.
