It's the only film I've fallen to sleep watching. It was so dissapointing... but then we got Advent Children, so all was right again.

I was thinking more along the lines of magic-using characters, Chocobos, Moogles, and things like that. Little stuff that's become a sort of trademark. Beyond those things, FF games really don't have anything in common, story-wise. That's pretty much what I meant. And a J-Pop esque hero. Without that, we riot. And rioting ensued. On topic...ahh, the film that almost bankrupted Squaresoft and cost Hironobu Sakaguchi his job. Like others have said in this thread...it's just boring and forgettable. It's a superlative achievement in the CGI field, but as a film it leaves no impression. Neither Final Fantasy film is really any good, as Advent Children is just the destruction of Cloud's character development paired with lots of stylish fight scenes.

I didn't like it, not because it was nothing like the games, it was just well, underwhelming it felt like a generic sci fi movie you'd find on TV. I did find the concept of the story interesting, but if it only didn't take place on Earth it would have been better I kinda think it would've been better if it was the other way around, like if the asteroid or meteorite was a fragment of the Earth and the phantoms were the ghosts of the humans.

I didn't dislike it, though I didn't really like it either. One problem was having to watch it two and a half times in a row during a school field trip, so I didn't pay much attention to it.

...It was better than Advent Children.
