Additional Features

The special edition DVD of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within can keep you occupied for hours. The first disc includes two feature-length commentaries. The first was recorded by co-director Motonori Sakakibara, sequence supervisor Hiroyuki Hayashida, sets and props lead artist Tatsuro Maruyama, and Phantom supervisor Takao Noguchi the day after the film was finished. They speak Japanese so you might have to read subtitles, but it's fun to hear them laugh as they enjoy the film. The second commentary, which is less giddy and more informative (and in English), is by animation director Andy Jones, editor Chris S. Capp, and staging director Tani Kunitake, who discuss technical elements of the animation, notes on the casting, and subtle details you might not have noticed. There's also an isolated version of the powerful score with infrequent but interesting comments from composer Elliot Goldenthal, and 11 scenes (81 minutes total) that alternate among storyboard, rough animation, and final film, with optional filmmaker commentary or subtitled factoids.

The bulk of the second disc is a 30-minute making-of documentary supplemented by numerous easy-to-find Easter eggs. There are also profiles of the seven major characters (including personal background, as well as voice actor and lead animator info), sketches and explications of three of the film's vehicles, DVD-ROM content, and an editing tool that allows the viewer to rearrange parts of the council-conference scene and play them back. Even the menu intros are interesting to watch! --David Horiuchi

5.0 out of 5 starsA timeless sci-fi classic that was ahead of its time, and still provides a fun journey to this day!
By Nick Mnemonic on July 28, 2014
Format: Blu-ray Verified Purchase
I remember my dad renting this movie for us to watch one weekend when my mom and sister were out of town for whatever reason. And I remember being completely blown away. I had never seen anything like it. Both my dad and I were watching the movie with our jaws hanging down to the floor. Even after all this time the movie looks like it could be a new release, but for back then it was unequaled. To be honest I’ve never really played a Final Fantasy game, nor do I know much of anything about that universe, so my basis for this is simply on the movie itself. Which I find to be an incredibly fun watch even to this day.

I have finally broken down and decided to upgrade my copy to blu-ray based on a friends recommendation. I heard it was missing some of the special features that the DVD had, but to be honest I don’t usually take the time to check out any of that stuff anyway, so not a deal breaker for me by any means.
I’d recommend this to anyone who is a fan of sci-fi, whether they care for animation or not. The animation of this movie is of such quality that at times you kind of even forget that’s what it is (well maybe that’s a stretch!). Because I saw this movie back when this technology was pretty new, it holds a special place for me. The newer generation would probably still like the movie, but I don’t think they’d be as blown away as I was as a kid.

4.0 out of 5 starsFangirls honest review
By Jessica Shook on May 3, 2012
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
Some of the characters aren't developed as well as I'd liked them to have been. They focus on some superfluous things, and could have really ramped up the interest by removing the focus from those things (to which I wont mention and spoil), and focused more on some character development and character interaction development.

Voice acting was pretty decent, animation was good for the time it was created. Story is pretty cliché, ending is typical for anime. The first time I watched it, when I was fourteen or so, and I thought it was pretty bawler. I feel it's appropriate for children 8+, simply because if they're any younger they wont understand what's going on. Given how brain-dead/scatter brained the youth of America is these days, I'd have to say 11+ instead.

Overall, it was entertaining and I'm a fangirl of FF, so 4 stars... even though it deserves more like 3.

5.0 out of 5 starsGlorious Animation, Good Story
By Dr. Christopher Coleman on December 18, 2001
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
I find myself in a curious position of praising Final Fantasy to the skies although I abhor the idea of making a movie based on a computer game. The film stands complete apart from the games. No characters from the games appear in the film, nor will a filmgoer ever feel left in the dark if they are completely unfamiliar with the games. Apparently only the Gaia--Earth Spirit concept and the idea of worlds in which magic and technology coexist are held in common, and perhaps the overall tone of the game. Viewers hoping for a two hour reenactment of their favorite game are bound to be disappointed; but those willing to accept the movie only in the spirit of those games will surely be thrilled.
Final Fantasy is every bit as stunning as the trailers and previews and pre-release publicity would lead you to believe. The animation is quite simply the most realistic I have ever seen. The detail of the characters, from their complexions to the way they move, left me in awe of the artistry--several times during the film I found myself literally saying aloud "I can't believe it!" And other times, I found myself NOT amazed at the animation--not because it was bad, but honestly because I was not thinking of it as animation! (Only very rarely, with the movement of a single character (Neil) was the realism ever broken--fans of animated films will know that different characters are created by different animators.) Equally fascinating was the imagery itself--the alien worlds and alien beings (with a single exception--a flying, snakelike dragon which was rather typically and disappointingly commonplace Oriental) were highly imaginative and the colors and tone of the film superbly stylistic.Read more ›

4.0 out of 5 starsBetter than expected. A good movie afterall.
By Carmilla on November 9, 2005
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
After reading and seeing the countless negative reviews, i was prepared for the worst when i saw this movie. What i saw surprised me greatly.

First off, the animation and computer visuals of this movie are beyond stunning. There are numerous scenes that you would be hard pressed to think its not real life. The characters look brilliant and the voice acting is superb. Every voice actor fits its on screen character and they are all top notch.

Though Aki's hair looked incredibly stiff and unrealistic to me...

But hows the story?

Great!

I wasnt 'confused' with the plot and story like so many others seemed to be. It was a somewhat generic and cliched plot of invading aliens which need to be stopped, but it worked remarkably well.

I also found the movie to be funny, the action to be entertaining, and the characters to be likeable.

I loved Woods as the evil general and i loved Buscemis character. I really connected with most of the characters and i felt for them when some of them met an early demise...

All in all, i was thoroughly satisfied with my purchase and viewing of Final Fantasy. Is it Oscar caliber or one of the better movies of the year? No.

But is it a beautiful and enjoyable 100 minutes? I would have to say yes.
