Best movie ever? Maybe.

Now if they had made FF6 the movie, then it certainly would be.

I second that but I think either a secret of Mana or Chrono Trigger movie would rival it. Just my 2 cents. ;D

Well, yeah... If you expect a lot of action, you'll be disappointed.

The movie tries a lot to be beautiful. All the time.
'Not saying it never succeeds, but it's simply "too much". Way too much.

Wow. :eek: I want to see this now. The eye candy factor is enough for me and I used to watch that old anime every now and then, interesting to see what it's become.

I really wish they'd make those into movies.... they seem to be making a movie for every superhero, maybe someday they will move to videogames....
 
I posted this before in another thread dedicated to Casshern, but I can't find it, so here it is again:

I personally think it looks too cluttered. I get claustrophobic watching the trailer.

Watched it last night. Loved it. While there were sections of the movie where I lost faith and felt it was a little sloppy, ultimately it was a beautiful movie. It was a completely unique experience for me. I can't compare it to anything in recent mind, except maybe the FF8 opening movie 8)
 
yeah i've seen it also and though at times it seems a little slapped together the shear spectacle of it makes it worth watching, it's like viewing a long avant gaurd music video, it makes me wish U.S. blockbusters could look this stylish
 
Saw it about a week ago, I too was very excited about this movie from the trailer put up here several months ago.

It wouldn't have bothered me that it was not full on action, the thing was it was just a pain to get through. By the end of the movie we were bearly paying any attention.

I agree with Hague about it trying to be beautiful the whole way through, just over done a little too much.

Action wise the one part I did like though was when he was destroying all the machines which looked alright, but I thought the rest of the fight scenes were very disappointing and relying too much on special effects and trying to be artistic when they should be focusing on the action choreography more.
