the worst adaption I´ve ever seen.

Light, a stupid teenage student, uses the Death Note to impress Mia, a girl he likes.
They go rampage and kill criminals. L is getting emotional while it all turns into some comedy/love drama, because Light didn´t want to murder his own father.

If they changes ALL the names and maybe the title, the movie wouldn´t be that bad. But if you expect a Death Note movie, you´re only getting dissapointed.

I don´t even mind the "white whasing". I don´t mind, that L is black, Light is called Turner or Mia is just some random classmate of him. There personalities are all completely different and "Kira" is just a boring person.

@tacosama<br /> yeah, but you could call it "Hollywood washing" - girlfriend-relationship, action scenes only, keeping it simple/dumped down<br /> They reduced the amount of "Death Note" unique plot, removed the "chess game" and finally just got another part of "Final Destination"<br /> <br /> What is so difficult to just do anything near "good" - with all these really great originals Hollywood burned recently???

I find americanising a much more direct and subtle term then "white washing", after all its all they do this to pander to the biggest market out there.

@tacosama . Maybe if this had of been a sequel to the original story with the only character carried over being Ryuk, they could have made this into a movie less insulting to the source material.
