Death Note (A Netflix Film) Reviews - 37 Metacritic - 30% RottenTomatoes

[curl-6]

It's okay for an adaption to deviate a little from the source material; the anime of Death Note diverges from the manga, and the Japanese live action films diverge again, yet they retain the essence of what made the story great.

Judging from the trailer though, this one seems to have made a clean break from the core stengths of the original.
