"It's like you're witnessing a Heavy Metal story come to life (...) Final Fantasy'' is a technical milestone, like the first talkies or 3-D movies (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 4)" | ||||
"If the quality of the writing had matched the artistry of the animation it would border on masterpiece (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)" | ||||
"Unlike anything you've ever seen before, Final Fantasy is, finally, one for the history books (...) It makes Lara Croft look like an old maid." | ||||
"What makes Final Fantasy a final failure is a predictable, nonsensical plot" | ||||
"[It] is a visual marvel. But moviegoers accustomed to Hollywood action probably won't find this contemplative adventure so appealing (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)" | ||||
"Isn't likely to satisfy the gamers' appetite for action. It also probably isn't heady enough for the science-fiction crowd, and it's too remote for those who simply wish to be immersed in a head-spinning fantasy world." |
