Adam Wingard's Death Note is not the adaptation the fan wanted, but still an enjoyable movie. Some silly scenes, especially the meeting between Ryuk and Light (c'mon guys... for a moment I thought I was watching a parody), but overall the acting was good.

Still questioning myself about the ending, which felt a bit rushed. Maybe an 8/10 episode series would have enhance the potential that the story had, with interesting characters (L played by Lakeith Stanfield was lit, surprisingly a perfect choice for the role) and well(-ish) developed plot-twists.
