THE GOOD:Once you've sat in front of the TV, with popcorn and set the DVD on then you're in for the best hour and a half in the history of CG films. The Graphics is breath-taking. The sound is great and really gets you into the mood. The characters... Hmm... Well, the characters looked better especially Tifa. Storyline-wise, it is good but it's better if you've played the game. The fight-scenes are off-the-roof. Whoever said that Star Wars had the best battle scenes should rethink and reflect. It is much better than DMC and Star Wars combined when it comes to fight-scenes.
THE BAD:
I think, there're a few bad points in the movie but not significant enough to change my score of it. First, it's too short. Second, there're no other Summoning sequence. Third, There're no chocobos! Wark! Fourth, Tifa is so hot... oh wait, that's a good point.
SUMMARY:
Whenever I sit down for a movie or play a game, I see to it that I have 5.1 Surround in my speakers and luckily I do have them when I watched this AWESOME to say the least movie. If you're a fan of the series or just a newbie wanting to have some fun, then this is a movie you'll adore. I must say that Square has redeemed themselves after the flop which was "The Spirits Within." It was a great comeback. If you've thought that FFX and FFX-2 had great graphics (which they do, of course) then this one has better graphics and sounds. The story is a sequel to the game and the game's story was great (the best in FF so far.) The characters were great with some new modifications especially Tifa. I can't reiterate this much... Tifa is so hot! Spending money for the DVD or going to Japan to get your copy is all worth the trip. A two thumbs up.
