7.8??? No idea who rated it like that - then again, opinion. But for me because this movie was the bomb! I give it an overall 8.5. Here's why:
Visuals: This movie was visually pleasing in every way possible. From the close ups to the long shots to everything. There wasn't a single weak spot I could find when watching this. If there was one, then i was too captivated by the film to notice.
Special Effects: No words. The way they did the shinigami were so stunning and realistic that when they first introduced one I had to momentarily process what i was seeing. If you compare the cgi in this film to the other live action Death Note films, this one will be the victor.
Story: It's unique and thankfully doesn't stray from the source material.
Acting: Everyone did a wonderful job. I fell in love with every character.
Music: Ho ho ho, the music fit in with the movie so well. I want to personally thank the director.
Rewatch: I already have.
Overall: 8.5. I went in making sure to not compare this cast to the original Death Note cast because come on. Light and L already had their time, this isn't about them. This is about the NEW world.
