it's the feature film any FF series fanatic has been drooling to see since 1997 and the days of the PS1. if you liked the game you have to see this movie. the only annoying thing about this movie is one scene with a little bad dialogue that sometimes crops up in dubbed movies, but all the rest was worth the price of admission. even if you haven't played FF7 it isn't a prerequisite
What's great about it: it's FF7 what's not to like?

This is one of my all-time favorite movies, and for good reason! Amazing graphical art, brilliantly designed, and an in-depth storyline... what's not to love?! As a HUGE fan of the FF7 game, I absolutely loved seeing the old favorites in action. Having the original Japanese audio available was also a plus, and the extras were great as well. I encourage anyone, a fan of the FF series or not, to pick up this DVD!

this is the 3rd version of FF i've owned. the detail in the characters is just amazing. watching the dvd and then watching the blu ray just makes you appreciate it more. more footage, which are mostly fighting scenes make it fresh and like a new movie. the sound is great too. some new bonus footage and a small preview of FF13. you can see so much detail in the clothes and characters...just awesome

I first saw this movie when I borrowed it from a friend, I have never seen anything regarding final fantasy before, nor have I played the game, but the movie was great on its own you dont need to know the game series to get into the movie since they do a fine job of conveying the back story in the begining to the new comers of the story. The action sequences take your breath away and leave you on the edge, it keeps your attention from start to finish with its sheer intensity
What's great about it: The action sequences
What's not so great: The DVD's default language is japanese so you neeed to change it to english when you play and need to turn off subs.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great movie and the cost of the set is worth it. I would watch it over and over again!! The box set includes: 2 disc sets, 10 artwork postcards of FFVII characters, a script book written in english with 116 pages and a booklet including a side story of each character with 72 pages.
What's great about it: The cg is awesome!!
What's not so great: Best Buy didn't carry the special edition in blu ray format
I would recommend this to a friend!

Continuing the story from the FF7 in the best way possible! Awesome show and anyone thats played the game and liked it needs to watch this.
The first time i saw it americans had no idea about it, so it wasnt even translated yet, so watching this with the quality of blu-ray and subtitles was nice.

I've been a Final Fantasy 7 fan for years, so this was the sparkling cherry on an epic sundae. CGI effects are stunning and the improvements are obvious from the earlier version of Advent Children. The added material to the film helps non-fans get a general idea of the preceding story [Crisis Core, which is a video game] and how it's important to the current plot. Of course, you don't have to be a fan of the other parts to enjoy and understand Advent Children. I was even surprised when my father wanted to rewatch this movie - because the graphics were just that good!
The bonus material surprised even me. It includes a rewind of the entire story [meanin FF7 in general] for the non-fan. All in all, this was one of the best things I ever bought for myself - and those watching it with me usually end up loving with this movie.
What's great about it: Great bonuses, awesome graphics, excellent story.
