Movie recommendation: Death Note

[FreshPrince]

Death Note

Light Yagami finds the "Death Note," a notebook with the power to kill, and decides to create a Utopia by killing the world's criminals, and soon the world's greatest detective, "L," is hired to find the perpetrator. An all out battle between the greatest minds on earth begins, the winner controlling the world.

Death Note: The Last Name

Shinigami own notebooks called "Death Notes" which are used as killing devices. Whoever's name they write down in a death note will die within 40 seconds. Shinigami Ryuku accidentally dropped his Death Note in the human world where it's found by honor high school student Raito. With the death note actually having directions in it for its use, Raito discovers he now has the power to discreetly kill people, and with this new power he plans to change the world in his ideal world by killing off criminals. Eventually the governments of the countries around the world notice the unusual amounts of deaths of their criminals, and figure out someone is behind them, but they have no way of discovering it themselves. That's when they hire L, a master detective, to find out who is behind the murders.

Any seen these 2 movies? I highly recommend the first one, I think it was very well done.

The 2nd one was good too, but not as well done as the 1st one. Nana Katase was smoking hawt in the 2nd one though :shocked:

:thumbsup:

DN anime > DN live-action and manga ... especially after seeing the ep released today :Q

The live-action I found skipped over too many things and the manga was too wordy.

I agree. The anime is really well done. It's concise, but doesn't skip anything.
