Trivia:
The film is dedicated: "In Memory of Hiroshi Takase." Takase was the Director of Photography for the first Death Note movie, who died just after finishing it. more
Goofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): When Misa meets L for the first time and looks up at his name, she reads it using her Shinigami Eyes. It seems unlikely that she would think it would not be L, seeing as his name is L Lawliet. Later she forgets his name, which is also strange again seeing as he had such a unusual name, and that L was his first name. more

L: All the Death Notes shall be left with me.

This film has it's flaws. What I liked most about this film is that it gave you a different ending then the anime. The beginning of this film follows the anime pretty well minus some action, and some characters and their sexes were changed. What bugged me though was how careless Light was. He seemed so much more insane yet dumber then in the anime. Honestly the story could of been much better then it was but still it was an interesting take on the story. The acting wasn't very good. The only believable characters in comparison to the anime were Mr. Yagami and L. L was a real joy to watch in live action. If all else see this movie just to see him and how eccentric he really is. So if you like seeing all angles of a story then this is a good movie to see. The different ending makes it worth watching.
