***SPOILERS***
I'm not really sure how many spoilers will actually be in this post, but I figured that I would label it just in case.
Nobuo Uematsu is a god. That is one thing that I am certain of.
I've played Final Fantasy VII more times than any other Playstation title (even more than One Piece Grand Battle 2). It was the reason I bought a Playstation in the first place. This movie really was nothing more than a Fan-gasm to me. Probably my biggest gripe with this movie is the fact that the other characters from the game barely make an appearance at all. Part of the reason I loved the game so much was for its cast of characters and how they played off of each other. The other characters from the game (Barret, Cid, Yuffie, Red, Cait Sith) didn't even have a real reason to be there. Sure I understand that Cloud is the central character but at least give these guys something interesting to do. I really liked the ensemble of Final Fantasy VII the game. It's a real shame that it didn't port over to this movie.
***END SPOILERS***
Even with all that said I still enjoyed watching the movie. I will watch it again, but I still can't help but think of what it could have been.
