Review of Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children
I am utterly amazed at how many negative and mediocre ratings and reviews this has gotten on this site... Are these people just nostalgic over something that didn't get added from FFVII the game?! This movie is epic... period... watch it, love it. Story: A continuation of FFVII 2 years later, shows the world recovering from everything that happened in the game. Connects to the game storyline perfectly, and accurately represents it all. Great development, and the concept behind the remnants of Sephiroth was a great idea and made for something really special, and even set up for another story to be told beyond this in FFVII'sline.
Art:
The best that exists... No... really, it doesn't get any better than this. Equal with FF spirits within of course, same company. As real as it gets. CGI is the future of anime.
Sound:
If you loved FFVII game soundtrack, you'll love this, it's the same.
Characters:
Continues accurate development of all characters from the game, so again, this is a 10 easy... Yuffie FTW! she's too cute... Miss Zack Fair though(makes appearance) (the REAL soldier Cloud could only hope to be)
Basically, if you've played FFVII, you "should" love and appreciate this. If you haven't played FFVII, you should still be able to enjoy and appreciate this, as the DVD has a "catch you up" video you can watch first that more or less fills in what takes place overall in the game's storyline. So this should be a no-brainer.
