Review of Death Note: L Change the WorLd (2008) by Ian D — 24 Mar 2013
Death Note: L: Change the WorLd is not only a must see for anime fans... It's a must see for anybody. Very gripping from start to finish. The movie stars Kenichi Matsuyama as L (for those who don't know him; imagine Sherlock Holmes mixed in with James Bond and Rain Man).
He is the worlds greatest detective tasked with tracking down a group of bio-terrorists who are hell bent on wiping out the human race with a highly advanced Ebola virus. He must also care for two young children; an unnamed boy-genius and an orphan girl named Maki.
However smart he may be however, he cannot change his fate... to die in 23 days...
Long story short: Watch it! It WILL have you tearing up by the films end of both sorrow and joy, as they hit these emotional chords perfectly with the films precise direction, solid delivery of the characters and it's simply BEAUTIFUL score!
