A bunch of visuals clumsily stuck together
I liked the synopsis of this film, so with a night free of the kids we settled down to watch it. It started well, something of an Aliens feel to it. But it quickly became just a loose collection of some visuals (either artworks, sculptures or modern interpretive dance routines) that the director wanted to put in a film loosely stitched together with the worst attempt at a sci-fi plot I have ever seen.
The focus of the film was on the set piece visuals, which at times were stunning - such as people-shaped bushes, crystal trees and the final scene. However, choosing to cram these into a loose sci-fi plot was the wrong decision. Sci-fi fans (the only people likely to watch this based on the description) need a water-tight plot that makes some amount of sense, while leaving some aspects open to interpretation. This film is the latest in a worrying trend of films who make no effort to explain why things happen, and instead cling to a loose premise.
While the film kept my interest enough, it left me very disappointed over the second hour.

Loved it!!!
This book is great for a video game loving, 80s reminiscing, sci-fi geek who needs a good read. This book is really well read and came across really nice to those who would understand all of the 80s references. One of my favorite books that I have read in a while!!!

Incredible CGI (1 more)
Excellent Storyline
A True Masterpiece
This is easily one of my favourite films. The CGI is INCREDIBLE for 2001. Absolutely beautiful. Storyline was fantastic, and no previous knowledge of Final Fantasy to enjoy it, I'd barely heard of Final Fantasy before this movie. Highly recommend to sci-fi and anime fans alike.

Cop with a twist
Not a huge fan of supernatural or sci-fi genres, but this had me interested from the outset - so much so, I've started following the cast on Instagram!! I love when the wesen characters woge. Incorporate a bit of corruption, action, romance and dry-wit and you've got a winner!
