Spirits Within: Flop or Great

[rubicant]

Well, do you think SW was a horrible piece of crap or great movie in itself?
Voice your opinion here. Personally, I thought it blew and I don't even see why Final Fantasy was included in the title.

[Necronopticous]

I loved it, everything about it.

[zimmunky]

I liked it, It was as original as a Final Fantasy game. Square was bold to do it, Because you really didn't have time to develop with the characters, and the worlds wern't too imaginative also for lack of time. But I loved it as a stand alone movie, but to Square's standereds...We can just hope Advent Children will be better.

While it may or may have not been a good movie, it really messed up the financial status of Square at the time. I said that it flopped.

[Loony BoB]

It was okay, but it still flopped. You can't deny that.

[Cless]

I just saw it the other day and I couldn't really get into it. I don't know, I just found it was lacking something. I guess some bits were pretty cool (like the way they shoot out that goo stuff to land when they jump off the ship) but I really expected more. I must say, I was actually quite dissappointed. The bonus commentary on the DVD is hilarious though! Were those guys drunk or something?

It was a major flop though. Would I be right in assumming that it was the reason Square merged with Enix?

[Destai]

The animation was the biggest treat but if I wanted to stare at something interesting looking Id have watched the cat in the hat. I couldnt find any entertainment in it at all.

what he said

i liked the spirits within but not as a final fantasy its a good movie but it lacks something that makes the game itself the Soul of FF was there but not all of it they could of used swords, why do ppl thin aki ross was a hot babe? she didnt look any dif than any other strong ff female chars eg Tifa Rinoa Yuna ( Aeris Yuffie Quistis Selphie Garnet Beatrix and Rikku werent truely strong or main chars)

spirits within was the cause of the ff7 remake project to delay almost die out

[The Man]

It was just so-so. Visually, it was stunning, but it didn't have the "Final Fantasy" feel, and there wasn't enough of a plot.

[Shoden]

yeah it was a good movie but not in Final Fantasy Terms

[Rase]

It was what you get trying to cram a videogame series, with games that almost all take at least 20+ hours to complete, and cram it into 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Ain't gonna happen.

Flop.

[Narcissus Reborn]

Personally, I was slowly moving into the FF games when i saw this movie so at that point I loved it. But now, I really can't say the title of "Final Fantasy" was necessary, kinda like my opinion of Crystal Chronicals. The graphics were beautiful and the over all movie thrill was not above or really below any of my standards of a good movie. So this is a "so-so" for me.

[Desert Merchant]

I thought it was a great movie in itself prob not worthy of the FF title just because it was on our earth and not a made up planet and there was no FF things like swords and monsters but i mean some things were in the FF sense I think there was a cid in there and the whole lifeforce thing was in the FF context but in my opinion good movie but not a good Final Fantasy

[kikimm]

I really, really liked it, but I seem to be the minority here; and that's somewhat disappointing. I think it has a wonderful story, and characters; good action sequences as well. I liked it.

[nik0tine]

From a visual standpoint, it was incredible. The rest of it seemed to kinda suck though. I realized that after about the fourth or fifth time I saw it.
