Honestly, not as good as i was hoping it would be. There are a few moments that makes one jump but other than that.. it was just lotsa heavy breathing underwater XD All i can say is, once they mentioned bout the nitrogen causing hallucination part, i sorta see it coming, that it's gonna happen to one of them, it was a good twist but not really unexpected. Another part that was kinda stupid was, when they reached the surface and the rest was like asking them to swim, to me it was like really? There's a shark after them and you'd think they can swim faster than a shark? I'd throw them the float and tell them to hang on tight and prolly start the boat and bring them closer to the shore first, not driving too fast of course... At least, create some distance from the shark first or something :/ Then again, i know nothing bout driving a boat nor being an injured shark food and holding on for dear life when half of it is in the shark's tummy XD anndddd It was juz a hallucination anyway~ One thing's for sure, Mandy is the lucky one!
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO AND AGAIN A BIG NOOO! Sure i wasn't expecting much but damn it they had a really good material in their hands to actually do something awesome. And what they did was absolute shit. No mate. If you want to use the name of Death Note, even if you dont do a direct adaptation there are still some key things that you had to keep. Light for example. My god wasn't he awful. Light was supposed to be a trully brilliant psychopath, cold with no empathy what so ever and really good tactician. But this dude. My god. A dumb,angry teenager with not a drop of brain in his head.Testosterone speake dto him , since he did all that to impress that freakin cheerleader. What men do to f@#k. And L. He was supposed to be as brilliant as Kira. They had something going on there. Here L found out who Kira was in one sec. No brilliance there. And towards the end he turned into a sentimental brat.
Ryuk was actually the only good thing in this whole movie and they only gave him like 10 lines.
I laughed hard at the scene on the ferris wheel and the song they used in this one. OMG it was hilarious. Just it didnt fit this scene. It was totally ridiculus.
No. I really warn you. I was going to watch this for the heck of it, but at least i expected they would try just a little.If you are an anime fan like i am do yourself a favour and don't watch this shit. Even if you completely try to forget the original this still is a shitty movie. Shame on you Netflix. I hope if you ever try to brutally murder a good anime in the future, you do a much better job.
I wanted to attend a screening of "Grave" (now re-titled to "Raw") almost a year ago from today but it was canceled so I have been looking forward to it's regular release ever since. The general press continued to hype this up, the trailer looked quite dope and even Mondo jumped on the wagon doing the OST pressings... expectations high [✓] (check).
As one can already see by my rating they were not met at all... I was even more so offended that it got that much praise. Frankly put: the movie sucks.
I don't quite understand what it is that some people saw in this... maybe they're vegetarians or just got distracted by the shlock.
The so-so concept which consists of elements all done before is terribly under baked. The changes occurring in the main girl are not really grounded in her character but rely on music or shlock scenes to progress but even with those I feel duped. Nothing in the setting helps to support the story (and it's nonsense) and instead makes the whole thing seem even more unrealistic and distracts with some overly edgy bullshit.
As the movie progresses it just falls apart even more and looses it's focus, building towards a tonally misguided ending. It almost felt like a joke.
The only positive thing I can say that the cinematography is quite good for the most part ¯_(ツ)_/¯...
