Product Review
In this movie Final Fantasy VII - Advent Children, human and animal motions are quite convincing, and cloth and hair effects have never been better. The gray grunge of a crumbling urban world comes through well - sometimes the subdued palette tells the story better than brighter colors could. This movie takes place a few years after the FFVII game, with Cloud, Tifa, Barret, Cid, Red XII, Cait, Yuffie, and Vincent in the cast.
After the fight in the end of Final Fantasy VII, some of the children around Midgar have become infected with cells of Jenova. But then the three silver haired men show up in search for their "mother" Jenova, with the cast of Final Fantasy standing in their way. It's up to Cloud and the gang to stop more battles from breaking out.
The graphics of this movie are purely beautiful that any one would enjoy. They're not the cartoony type from Disney, or anime, but something that people would expect from SquareEnix. It uses 100% recycled plot elements; no new ideas were harmed in the making of it. Big cool motorcycles, oddly oversized and elaborate weaponry, flying-swordsman fight scenes, earth at risk from man's greed, super-secret government lab creating the ultimate warrior - you get the idea.
