Jesus christ guys, for a game movie, go watch Advent Children, for something closer to FILM, watch The Spirits Within. The least Square can do in terms of film-making and storytelling is try something completely new and refreshing, whilst succeeding gracefully. And clearly, they did. This is an artistic masterpiece from Square.
i used to love this movie, watched it so many times, but really isnt even a final fantasy. i remember watching it and i was like HEY! THATS ROSS! FROM FRASIER! :P
I'm sorry, but that Sci-Fi crap that I just saw was NOT final fantasy. Where are the gunblades? the buster swords? the materia? That didn't even look close to a final fantasy movie. It would probably have been a good movie if they just didn't call it Final Fantasy, but the slaughtered it. ADVENT CHILDREN FTW!!!
I used to think this movie was cool when I was a kid, All I saw at the time was the action, and the highly detailed graphics, but when I saw it again, I think the storyline is wack.... Spirits???? If so, why didn't they just build robots to collect these "spirits" or even to fight these "Phantoms" Plot was S**T....
@DarthJoshReturns Yeah I know, but I meant instead of sending off humans to collect "the spirits" (the plants and other crap" why not send droids? lol :p
Cool movie, one of my favorite movies of all time. However, it has very little to do with the actual franchise other than that the people who created the games also were involved in the movie somehow. Don't be deceived, the movie is awesome, but if you go into it thinking it's all swords, sorcery, and chocobos galore, you'll be in for a disapointment hehe. You've been warned :)
this wasnt based on any game. it was just a spin off film. this movie is more like a sci-fi film. it lacked things like summons, magic, swords, as u would expect to see in a final fantasy game. this is just very different.
TSW isn't "ok", seriously it's a classic! If the flaws and cons would have been managed and fixed it would have been one of the elite classics! There WILL be a game based on TSW and any other original FF movie! I have yet to complete AC and make the Final Verdict, LOL.
Actually from what I can see, The Spirits Within is better (I saw the entire DVD!) than FF7:Advent Children (I saw parts of it and looked it up very well on the internet)! I never at all played the 7 game, it'll probably be the best of the 3, maybe (I looked it up a lot!). 7 is definitely better than AC!
This Final Fantasy had nothing to do with the game.. I maen the graphics are super awsome.. but the plot a .. s**t . If you played Final Fantasy 7 you better watch FF7 Advent Children based on the game and way more awsome.
exactly right. it lacked things like black magic, summons, and stuff. but at that time, it must have been the first best CGI film ever. yes, do watch advent children. then play dirge of cerberus.
The Final Fantasy series has always shared some aspects from other FF games. Chocobo's, style, jobs, nobuo. Just certain things made a ff game a part of the series. Man, if only square pictures gave that budget to the Advent Children team.
do you have the movie? I saw it a long time ago at the theatre but i never knew when it came out on video. i was hoping to find it on youtube but the only have trailers and AMV's to it. :( *sobs* i dopnt even remember what happens in it anymore
i have actually seen it on youtube. cos i was gonna upload it myself, but then i found it here already so there's not much point. its definitely here, keep finding it.
You HAVEN'T seen it? Tut, tut... disgraceful. I hope you don't call yourself a Final Fantasy fan you unlearned fool. This film was out in 2001- You're talking five years too late.

I think the movie was made by the people that made the games, and they had to tag their name somehow.

This is not the first time actress Ming-Na is in a movie based on a video game. She was Chun-Li in the ill fated live action Street Fighter movie.

Box office bomb, but blame Columbia Pictures, this should have been made in Japan and Released by Tristar Pictures or Screen Gems.
