The question facing any viewer of the Japanese CG feature Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children is: do you have to know the games on which it's based in order to understand the film? And the answer is: it certainly helps. But even complete novices (i.e., most parents) in the Final Fantasy world will find some entertainment in its wealth of fantasy-based action, and the animation never fails to astonish. Picking up two years after an epic battle between the forces of good (represented by brooding soldier Cloud) and evil (Cloud's former general, Sephiroth), FFVII opens in the devastated city of Midgard, whose youthful occupants suffer from a ghastly disease known as Geostigma. A trio of brothers arrives with what appears to be a cure for the plague, but their gesture conceals a more sinister purpose: to revive Sephiroth and bring about the end of the world. Cloud and his companions must once again rise to the occasion to stop the siblings and the revived Sephiroth from unleashing total destruction. Complex and self-referential to the point of occasional incomprehension, Final Fantasy VII will definitely be most appreciated by fans of the game series, but if others can look past the numbing dialogue and frenetic action (which is a bit too intense for very young children), the film offers a carefree and action-packed viewing experience. The two-disc set contains the original Japanese language version of the film as well as an English-dubbed edition (Rachel Leigh Cook and Christy Carlson Romano, among others, provide the vocal talent) and a version edited for the Venice Film Festival. A 30-minute featurette that recaps the Final Fantasy story up to VII, as well as a making-of documentary, deleted scenes, and promotions for future Final Fantasy VII games and products round out the extras. --Paul Gaita
Description
FINAL FANTASY VII: Advent Children continues the game's storyline in this CG-animated film, featuring non-stop action and exciting visual effects. Two years have passed since the ruins of Midgar stand as a testament to the sacrifices made in order to bring peace. However, the world will soon face a new menace. A mysterious illness is spreading fast. Old enemies are astir. And Cloud (Burton), who walked away from the life of a hero to live in solitude, must step forward yet again... Backed by a full team of video game extraordinaires, the film was directed by Tetsuya Nomura and Takeshi Nozue, written by Kazushige Nojima and produced by Shinji Hashimoto and Yoshinori Kitase.

 Great Addition to the FFVII Storyline January 2, 2009
La Luna Lupe (Knoxville, TN)
The Final Fantasy VII story line has been fleshed out so much since its original release that it seems new all over again with each release. Advent Children is the jumping point from which all the new Final Fantasy VII titles seem to have been launched, even those that are meant to be prequels. Cloud wears his new look well, as does Tifa, although I do miss the original costumes. Aerith is so beautiful in this movie, she's always really inspired me. I like that so many of the original characters reappeared here and that the mythology of the game remains essentially the same as it had been. If you've played Final Fantasy VII and you haven't seen this yet, by all means, pick it up.
Simply a Masterpiece December 24, 2008
GUILLERMO S. FERNANDEZ (Mexico DF)
Advent Children is simple a piece of art.
I love how the staff of this videogame keeps on taking new stuff and ideas of a futuristic setting and of their unique lovable characters.
A MUST have for Final Fantasy fans, either videogames, anime or manga.
I want more of this kind of stuff and of this same high quality!
had to get it on umd December 16, 2008
kitty khem
i already have it on dvd but i had to have it in a more convent form, so i go it on umd for my psp. I LOVE THIS MOVIE. recommend this format for anyone that needs a more "portable" version of this movie, if you love it as much as i do. xP
One of the best animated films I've ever seen December 15, 2008
Nicholas Wood
When I saw this movie, I liked it almost right away. In fact, this is what caused me to become an FF7 fan in the first place. I wasn't clear with the story because I hadn't played Final Fantasy 7 before. Fortunatly, it has an option to watch a type of overview of Final Fantasy 7. It's about twenty five minutes long, but at least I had something go by. Anyhow, the music is excellent, the graphics are really good, and the story is really good. My advice to those who haven't played Final Fantasy 7 is to pay close attention to what's happening, and what the characters are talking about.
good movie November 30, 2008
Charles Eric Rivers (Eastland, TX USA)
overall the movie was great..the action and cg sequences were awesome...its by far one of the better cg movies ive seen and is about equal to Final Fantasy:The Spirits Within...my only complaint was the fact that it was animated with the Japanese language as the characters original language and then translated to English with voice-over..its more of an annoyance when u see the characters mouths speaking japanese..but you hear english...other than that it was well worth the money, and worth watching over and over....especially if you are a Final Fantasy fan..
