Contrary to what the critics tell you, this really IS a story well-told. Square Pictures went bankrupt telling this story due to the complexity of the CGI done (it was very far ahead of it's time and is still, by current standards, pretty amazing). The story is complicated and, generally, the public don't like complicated - they also don't like stories that seem, in essence, to be of an environmental nature as many have stated about the story line. HOWEVER, sometimes a complicated story is a good one and, in this case, it is. Also, the "environmental" issue at hand seems to be more of spirituality (NOT religious in nature, mind you) than an environmentally preachy film like Ferngully or the abomination Happy Feet. Overall, I recommend this release and think, if you are a sci-fi/CGI fan, will like it.Read full review
If you like sci-fi then you'll like this. Graphics are awesome, the story-line engrossing and highly entertaining, I saw this movies 7 to 8 years ago, and I just recently realized that this this movie needs to be added to my sci-fi favorites.

Final Fantasy: the Spirits Within is a very well done CGI movie that depicts an altered earth that has a problem with alien phantoms. Hoki, who has been infected by one is on a quest to find 7 elements to help combat the phantoms. The movie focuses on Gaia the spirit of the earth, if you are a close follower of such a thing. The movie in my opinion does not follow any time line from the games. It is an overall exciting movie worth watching.
I've watched this many times, i just wanted a copy for myself to watch on my high rez monitor. I can't say enough about the artwork and atmosphere these talented people have created. Its very immersive for me. Theirs lots of suspense for first time watchers too, i wish i could go back and watch it again for the first time :D The storyline is only ok though, so if you like actions of characters to make perfect logical sense, you might be one to roll your eyes at times.
Wonderful & I love it～
