Kick ass movie. This is the movie square should have released instaed of soirits within, this is what 99% of people think of when you say final fantasy. I liked ff:tsw, but this was way better.

I think this may be the best straight game:movie translatione ver- really. They kept the exact same feel as the game, from the bad humor and npc's to the way over the top combat.

Things I loved:

1. Clouds bike- knocks kanaedas bie right off the best anime bike ever. Must be swiss made.

2. Tifa- Tifa and Tifa. All her signature moves and then some. just wish she kept the white tshirt though

3. Clouds finisher- I came.

4. The music- perfect tunes carried over from the game and tons of little melodies and sounds from teh game. I know what my ringtones going to be for awhile.

Things that didnt work-

1. The story- I didnt really expect much, and I wasnt dissapointed or surprised, but it did keep the same heavyhanded earth loving wanting to slap the main characters over debating the over obvious plot points feel as the game.

2. Not enought Tifa.

3. The children- creepy and useless.

4. Aside from Tifa, Cloud, Aires and Seph, all the characters seemed off- too stiff and just missing something- cant quite put my finger on it, but noticeable.

Well, thats my semi-anual rant/post/novel on a random subject. If you havent seen it, watch it- its worth your time, excpect lots of action and way over the top fun.
