It's not terrible. But it gets silly.

L is actually the most bastardized character in this movie, despite me having the most hope for his actor.

Light is a decent adaptation. But his character is fundamentally changed - it's not the same story. I think his actor does a good job. Not as "whiny" as I've been reading. He's convincing enough.

Misa/Mia is hot.

Anyway, could have been worse. But it's not particularly good.

I thought it wasn't supposed to be like the manga?

The Netflix adaptation? I don't think so.

I feel that Light is the most off the mark from the adaptation.

L was, at least, intelligent and bizarre. didn't like how emotional he was, though.

They turned Light into an emo nerd.

I thought it was complete garbage

I don't find him intelligent. His bizarreness is too on the nose. They don't commit enough to it. But yeah, his emotion is one of the ruining aspects... he's supposed to be stubborn. He does have an emotional side to him in the show but it's not like this.

I should have said "intelligent", in relation to the movie.
