5.0 out of 5 stars Exellent storyline and action-packed, June 20, 1999

By	Rock fan (USA) - See all my reviews

I happen to be a big fan of the Final Fantasy game series, and this is a perfect movie translation. The movie is based on FF5 (I've never played it, but it looks cool). I don't know how they managed to put a LONG game into a two hour movie, but they did, and they did very well. If you like Japanese Animation movies, or are a fan of the game series, this is a fantastic choice.

1.0 out of 5 stars Supremely Cheesy, July 20, 2000

By	Andrew (USA) - See all my reviews

This series was not at all what I expected. The plot, although mediocre, was certainly lost on all the really bad cheesy parts. If you want to buy this because you think it's like the original FF series on Video Games, don't waste your time. I found this series very humorous, though, but only because it was really cheaply done. I hate to sound like a critic or a Final Fantasy "purist", but the mangled plot, shallow characters, and the horrible music make this an unsuitable viewing for anyone who doesn't want to make fun of it.

4.0 out of 5 stars A very good movie., June 19, 2000

By	Daniel Cardenas (Altamonte Springs, Florida (U.S.A.)) - See all my reviews

Okay, this movie is a mix of action and comedy. If you like movies with foul language, lots of violence, blood, and gore then DO NOT buy this movie. I myself like movies that have this, but also like everything else. This movie is mainly like the end of the world theme until a bunch of people become chosen by destiny to save the world that they live in. The movie has a lot of jokes, but it is mainly action. The characters are also very cool ESPECIALLY some creatures. My favorites are Prettz and the commander of the "Ironwing"(the vehicle is very cool)! Please buy this movie! You'll like it! I did!
