Review of Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children
Final Fantasy VII Advent Children- where to begin? Many fans of the final fantasy series found the Spirits Within film released in 2001 a dissapointment overall with hardly any connection to the games. The case with this film is completely the opposite. Fans of Final Fantasy VII or the the series itself have to watch this film even Kingdom Hearts fans as they will see familair faces. The film focuses 2 years after the events of Final Fantasy VII the video game. The plot focuses on Cloud the protagonist fighting with a rise of villians and the hardest battle, himself as he believes that heis alone and is guilty about his past, lost friends. The film appeals to fans and newcomers to the game series as well as people who just happened to pick it up, the music combines with instruments and there are some classic tunes to put a smile on the Final Fantasy VII fans out there. The characters all make a cameo apperance and have a battle, characters that are new and old enemies. I have shown this film to many people and the one thing they always admire in this film is the artwork and graphics. If there is one thing that will attract people to watch it, it is its timeless and classical graphic work that makes it look so delicous like a PS3 game. After 5 years fans had finally recieved a clasic monument in the Final Fantasy series and non- final fantasy fans who eitheir weren't into the video games now knew what the fuss was about. The only weak point of the story is the character development. However with all the positive factors of this film you can miss it. It will also appeal to the whole family as there is a message in the film about love, family and friendship. My favourite scene in the film is when Tifa fights against Loz to protect Marylene. The scene contains cool matrix scenes and unbelievable fighting moves. This film is combines, cute characters, evil villians, fights, hate, flowers flying in the air and water curing children. It will always be a Final Fantasy gem forever and ever and will always be recommened again and again.
