I haven't seen it - but those of you who have, did you like it? Was it any good?

If you think it'll be like the FF games, forget it. It's more like a sci-fi movie. Some people complained about the story-line (not interesting enough), but if you like CGI-movies, go for it. It looks pretty good :)

Morpheus and WinMX seem to suck lately.. Guess I'll have to rent it and watch it on a POS 19 (21 maybe?) " TV screen. Is it out on video yet?

Been on DVD for a couple months. The plot sucks. Acting is overdone and a poor use of the talent involved. CGI is the best ever though.

I just did a search with Morpheus and it came up with multiple copies of the movie. Perhaps you should try again?

It sucks big time for a movie!
As a gamer, I wish I have a machine that can handle all those animation and special FX.

good example of a company biting off more then they could chew:p they started from scratch pretty much. 4 years of to make, first couple probably spent making tools and screwing up:p no foundation like dreamworks or pixar. they shoulda started with an easier movie. they couldn't pull off the tech required to create realistic characters, they tried to cheat. instead of a anatomically correct model with working muscles and stuff like in hollowman they used traditional 3d models..and tried to trick out the correct movements:p our brains catch all the imperfections and stuff just doesn't look right at all. that.. and the story was a bit screwed up.

I'm using it now, and while it's working, but servers are a bit flakey. I'd run a server myself, but it doesn't seem to want to work through NAT.

For the way they made it (CGI, etc.) it was great, as far as the plot and voice acting went, I thought it was just mediocre.

Most disappointing and confusing movie that I saw last year. Graphics were fantastic, but not 100% convincing, and the storyline was exremely lame. Go see Monsters Inc if you want both great graphics and a great storyline.

The FF movie looks great, but the story is soo full of euphorian, the earth is your mother, don't shoot the earth it will make her cry crap... A few times during the movie i almost had to vomit, the mother earth propoganda was so thick.

I watched it and didn't know what was going on, most likely because I haven't played the game. Still- it had some pretty cool animation stuff.

Actually, the funniest thing was watching the characters dance to Michael Jackson's Thriller. :)

the movie started out ok, but then slowly deteriorated into a huge pile of steaming dog crap. :p
