September 18, 2009Great CG (though the movement of people looks a little marionette like), and a decent story that ultimately descents into a Shinto take on Gaia philosophy.

July 6, 2008Cool, you can make almost photo-realistic computer animated characters. Now try to invest that time in a better script. And by script i don't mean the Aliens fanfic someone wrote on weekends.

May 21, 2009I also found it quite disgusting that Titan A.E., which came out around the same time, had animation that was nearly as good, actors that were nearly as good, and acting that was actually BETTER, a plot that was AT LEAST 100 times better but, without the name recognition & the vast amounts of hype, it was considered a bomb...
HORRIBLE!!! -

I didn't care that the storyline in the game was out of whack with the storyline in the movie and I still don't. I think that if you go into watching this movie knowing that then you might still be disappointed bc the script & plot does utterly suck a bloody sphincter!! However, if you think that the movie sucks bc it has nothing to do with the game then ... well, cry me a river, build me a bridge & get the fuck over it!
Now, with that said..
The animation was some of the best that I have ever seen. Truly outstanding! The story however was among the most predictable and pointless that I have ever been put thru by ANY movie ... that I have EVER SEEN in my entire life!! I find it to be an insult that there was so much put into this movie, i.e. animation, first rate actors, vast amounts of hype, & name recognition, and the movie ultimately sucks ass! Considering the actors that they had in this movie the acting could have been A LOT better; it was only subpar. -
October 3, 2007Just commenting on some of the reviews and comments made. Who cares if its got nothing to do with the game! It's a damn fine effort for a first full CGI movie of its kind! As for the casting it was a brilliant move if you ask me!

February 1, 2007I Agree that this movie whould be alot better if it had a diffrent name,its not rlaeted to the game but not bad on its own......
-
September 27, 2006If it had a different title.
I bet you it would be alot more popular.
But I loved it. SO much. -
August 20, 2006For what it was, I did enjoy it. I'm actually glad it wasn't like the games.
-
August 19, 2006:/ just because it has the final fantasy name, doesn't necessarily mean that it has to be about the video games.
or THE video game, as you put it. -
July 10, 2006this movie was fucked. it has nothing to do with the ACTUAL final fantasy game.
