Quick character recap:

Dad: He's functional I guess. Performance was not very good, but he worked. If the movie was good he wouldn't have really brought it down.

Watari: Also functional. He wasn't particularly interesting or entertaining, but he served his purpose.

Ryuk: Really cool aesthetic and voice. Personality is a little weird. I enjoyed seeing him in the background at times chuckling at what was happening - that's classic Ryuk.. His first scene in the classroom where he tells Light what to do didn't feel right at all. Ryuk pushing Light into doing anything feels wrong, and then he had a lot of awkward dialogue doing a bunch of exposition right after that first killing. He also keeps trying to tell Light to give up the notebook for some reason... but since Light is actually fucking awful maybe he just wanted out of this movie as much as I did. Ryuk was pretty decent.

L: L was just really bad. I thought he might turn out interesting at first, but despite the show cosntantly trying to make me believe L was clever, he never actually does anything clever. The way he makes connections don't really make sense, and confronting Light halfway through the movie and accusing him of being Kira was dumb as hell. I thought maybe he was trying to corner Light or push him into doing something... but he didnt. He has no plan and even shows his face... and then gets mad when Light targets Watari? This just wasn't L. They did make some attempt at doing his mannerisms which I appreciated, but the camera work just didn't capture it properly so it didn't work.

Light: Light is awful. He doesn't ever actually look like he wants to be doing what they are doing or that he even believes the things they are saying. He's just this annoying fucking kid who gets pushed along by the plot and starts writing names in the book because the movie demands that he does it. He never really understands anything that's going on, and they shoehorned in that scheme at the end to make him seem smart like anime Light, but he's really just as dumb as L is. His romance is really bad.
