    I strongly agree with this, due to the movies lack of development of its characters mainly. This is mostly on purpose as the producers of the movie said they wouldnt spend time on the character devolpment. They just believe everyone has played FFVII and they wouldnt waste time on the characters. If they had, the movie I believe would have been 1.5 hours longer.

    No offense but Final Fantasy games use fighting to accomplish everything. It's exactly what I expected the movie to be, a bunch of fights. If you expected much of a plot, honestly what the hell were you thinking?

    ljkkjlcm9 got it right :p. I can't say I really waited for it for too long either, I mostly ignored it until I could download it, so I just waited a few hours when downloading it, I'd say it was worth that wait :p.

    Good movies dont have deep plots and thats never what the movie set out to do. Awesome action was the aim and awesome action was achieved.

    I wouldn't say THAT, but I agree with Destai, Mirage, and lj. The characters were already developed. The point of the movie was to see your old characters in action again. And in action they were.

    It was fine, it was beautiful, the fights were nicely done but there was nothing else there. The response I've seen is there doesn't need to be anything else... in fact for me and a few others it does. That's opinion, but for the things I consider important like storyline, I expect that a good movie should make you care, this didn't really because the good guys were too invincible, they were developed a little but I didn't like it much and the storyline wasn't in depth enough, because a huge amount of the movie was fighting which didn't allow as interesting a storyline as I think they could've had, given how much time they didn't use. This is just an opinion, but the movie missed a lot of things I believe it could've had. It also succeeded in areas I expected it to succeed in so my expectations were pretty accurate... but my expectations weren't high as I didn't find it better then TSW, in anything but looking good.

    As I didn't wait for it thoug, just downloaded a beautiful movie it was worth the night I waited asleep in bed.

    Thanks Jess1 for the awesome sig!!!

    No it isn't worth the wait I downloaded this movie with subtitles and everything is goo dbut its just fight no storyline the only thing i noticed is that sephiroth makes his intensions more clearly.

    (SPOILER)
    sephiroth wants to use the planet as a space ship blah blah blah he turns back into that sissy guy witht he skinny sword after cloud does some crappy limit breaker attack. And it wasn't even until the end when you saw all the FF7 characters. It aint worth the wait SE like most japaneese gaming companies love to create a hype towards their non-japaneese customers so there non japaneese customers can pay a higher price than their japaneese customers do.

    I still don't see why anyone expected story with this movie. I didn't even expect it to be a real movie. Apparently a bunch of people did. I mean people, it started as what, a 30 minute thing, probably a big fight, then it got hyped because they were doing something with FF7, so they expanded cause people wanted that. The story was just tossed in there, it was added after to sort of connect all the fighting, or so I feel.

    Anyone who expected an actual movie, I honestly don't understand what you were thinking.
