So, last month I went to the theater to catch the Death Note Live Action movie and I have to say, I was actually quite impressed. I've seen a few Japanese live action movies that I've enjoyed but over the years I've felt countries like Hong Kong, Korea, China and even Thailand have made far superior films (with a few exceptions). However, I may have to eat my words. While it's impossible to totally condense the entire first half of the Death Note series into a single film, I was blown away by just how good it came out.
I usually don't mind anime dubs but I can't stand live action dubs. That was another exception for me on this film because it used the same cast as the Death Note English dub (which I really like btw).
So, has anyone else seen the Death Note Live Action film? I'm looking forward to seeing the second in the near future.
