... View MoreOverall, the game-play was pretty good, but I expected more considering the time Square Enix spent developing this game. I liked how the developers tried to cater for newcomers to the Final Fantasy franchise with simple game-play mechanics and threw in some new ideas. The open world design was not bad either, and travelling around in your car/chocobo was a lot of fun.The biggest complaint I have is with the story and the characters in this game. The main story line isn't very compelling and some parts don't make much sense, even more so if you haven't seen the other materials made for FFXV. The characters lack depth and aren't developed very well. Noctis and Lunafreya's little love story has little to no back story and zero romance with an anticlimactic end. Noctis is not much of a hero to look up to, he's just an over-emotional spoiled brat. Ignis is pretty much a nanny-robot. Only Prompto and Gladius were characters that felt right; Prompto brought a light-hearted humour to the four- man gang, and Gladius was the big brother that Noctis needed much to have his back and toughen him up. Ardyn's actions are confusing and his motives aren't explained very well. All the other characters are just one-dimensional and simply forgettable.Other minor complaints I have are with the camera and the lip syncing. The camera was all over the place; a lot of the times it is hard to tell what is going on, more so in small tight spaces. The lip- syncing was just disconnecting.All-in-all, even though my review contains mostly complaints, it was a good action RPG, but it definitely is the weakest in the Final Fantasy series in story and characters.
... View MoreTo start with, I have to say that this is the first film of the saga I watch, my interest in it began when I played the video game. First I saw it with the thought that the game is a masterpiece, willing to know whether the film was a match for the game or not. I must admit it is ; Takeshi Nozue has done a very good job, and the film is really worth to be seen. I think it must be a difficult thing to do, create a film based in a video game. It can't be easy, but the way in which Nyx, Libertus and the rest of the characters have been developed is absolutely amazing, so good that you want them to have their own game, that way you would be able to play and enjoy it. However, there is no perfect film, and there is a part I didn't like that much. It is the battle between the General and Nyx carrying the ring of Lucii. Everything happened too fast, and there where parts of the fight in which I couldn't distinguish one character from the other.In summary my opinion of this FF15 film is very positive. I had a great time and I really think it is worth spending a couple of hours watching it specially if you are keen on the video game
... View MoreReview: This movie truly looked amazing, and the attention to detail was great but if you was to ask me what it was about, I totally wouldn't have a clue. I knew that there was a goodie, a baddie, a princess and a ring but apart from that, I was just going with the flow. The action scenes were also confusing because there was way to much things happening at once but it still felt epic and I'm sure I will understand it better, if I'm to watch it again. As I didn't play the games, I didn't know who was who, or what was what but I did watch the first Final Fantasy movie, which also went straight over my head. There's a lot of betrayal and deceit throughout the film, so the main character Nyx (Aaron Paul) has to rely on his battle skills to get Princess Lunafreya of Tenebrae (Lena Headey) to safety, and with a the dark Lord constantly attacking them for this magical ring (Precioussssss!), you can feel the intensity throughout. Personally, the look and feel of the movie, was more impressive than the actual storyline because it seemed quite messy and over baring in places. Apart from that, I still found it quite amazing, for a film that is made on a computer, and it really does show how far we have come, in terms of making these computer images seem so real. I'm surprised that it didn't smash the box office, mainly because of the popularity of the game, and with the huge effort and scale of the film, I think it deserved much more. Anyway, I did find the movie entertaining but it would have been much better if it was made for dummies. Enjoyable!Round-Up: This movie was directed by Takeshi Nozue, who also co-directed Final Fantasy: Advent Children, so he wasn't new to the franchise. As he hasn't directed any other movies, it's hard to compare his work but I have to commend him for taking on such a huge project and making it look so fantastic. Budget: N/A Worldwide Gross: $1.5millionI recommend this movie to people who are into their animation/action/adventure movies, voiced by Aaron Paul, Sean Bean, Lena Headey, David Gant, Darin De Paul and Trevor Devall. 5/10
