Death Note (film)

It's my favourite film. I love it! This film and his serie. His serie have got 37 episodes of 23 minutes each one, and I saw all of them in only 2 days and a half. This serie centers on Light Yagami, an high school student who discovers a super natural notebook of a god of death, a Shinigami: the "Death Note". This notebook allows he to kill anyone whose face have been seen by the writer, the writer writes the name of the person imagining his face and then, this person will death. The writer can also "control" the death of the person, he can choose his death, what the victim will do, etc.
Light Yagami is... a genius, he is a great student and he will "dominate" the Death Note. He doesn't kill people with nonsense, he only kills "bad people", like killers, some convicts, criminals etc. He wants to create a new world, and he gets it (in the serie). I "agree" with this creation of a new world, a better world, but... there are some criminals that should pay for their crimes, but I don't know if to kill them are the solution... The protagonists of the serie are really charismatic, all of them have their own personality and talents. The "2nd protagonist" is L, a really brilliant (and strange) detective that attempts to find who is the killer of murders, who is "kira". I think that it's too difficult to describe L... he have some rare habits like sitting different than the other, to eat a lot of sweet things, to walk with a stoop, etc. But he "discovers" who is kira very early. Then, they make complex conspirations, lays, theories, plans, etc. Light attempts to kill L, and L attempts to betray Light.
The movie is a recreation of the manga anime, but changing some things, like some moments and the final (yeah, they've changed the final... the serie is so much better than the film, the film is only a summary with a "wrong" ending. But it was the ending that so many people wanted.) The movie can be found in spanish, english... but it is originally from Japan, so their texts are all in Japanese...

I could talk about this serie a lot of time, but I have to stop.
