Light Turner (Netflix's Death Note)

Light Turner is the main protagonist villain of the Netflix film, Death Note, adapted from the manga of the same name.

Why He Sucks

 * 1) He is dull and lacks the charisma of his original counterpart. We see him unable to fight back against bullies outside of his school.
 * 2) His reaction to Ryuk is like an attempt at slapstick comedy as he screams and repeatedly falls over.
 * 3) Because his first kill is so brutal and petty compared to his anime/manga counterpart, he actually comes across as more unhinged than the original. In the anime/manga his first kill is when he doesn't believe the Death Note is real and was an actual criminal holding people hostage.
 * 4) We see him unable to deal with bullies, and tried to kill them for that.
 * 5) He does stupid things like take the Death Note to school and read it in public with little attempt to conceal it. Even when L is after him, he continues to talk about how he is Kira in public places and on the phone. He even admits he's the killer to L.
 * 6) He does most of his killing to impress Mia Sutton, heavily weakening his character.
 * 7) Many of his darker character traits were given to Mia Sutton in an attempt to make him unambiguously good.
