‘Death Note’ MOVIE REVIEW: Netflix Adaptation Fails to Deliver
Fun concept and some strong cinematography aside, the film is constantly hurt by the underdevelopment of character and plot.

Lumpen, Chthonic shapes clamber out the shadows, turning human beings into blobs of bloated, tentacled flesh.
Although it is entertaining, the action/comedy balance isn’t quite calibrated correctly.
Despite the great acting, ‘Faults’ is undone by a number of plot holes and a denouement that feels underdeveloped.
It also has the longest single-take fight scene of its kind in history.
There was the potential for a more inventive adventure, but ultimately it plays it too safe to be anything special.
A questionable ‘Cannibal Holocaust’-esque moment is but one of the elements holding this intriguing horror-thriller back.
Yeesh, talk about a disappointment.
Yet another testament to Theron as one of our greatest actresses today.
Up there with the greatest third instalments of all time.
