Save the planet by stealth...

Is it the year of computer games making the crossover to the big screen.

Final Fantasy is is a computer generated, computer game based spectacular, whose hyper-real actors give their real life counterparts a run for their money when it comes to screen acting.

It is the year 2065 and global warming isn't the only thing wreaking destruction on the planet. A careless asteroid has just flattened the Caspian Mountains and brought with it a mysterious alien race who like nothing better than snacking on other beings' 'life-force'.

final fantasy
...Or by brawn!

Survivors of the initial onslaught hole-up in massive domed cities protected by force fields, and now the race is on to rid the planet of these evil life-suckers.

But how? - To nuke or not to nuke that is the question.

The plot comes straight from Hironobu Sakaguchi, creator of the Final Fantasy game series. It's a heady mix of war film and sci-fi action.

The entire film is computer generated, but the results are so lifelike that you soon forget you're watching a film.

Well you would forget if the script read better than your average comic strip that is! Oh, the plot line is complicated enough, but it loses something in the telling.

That's a real shame because the visuals really blew me away. The acting by the virtual stars is fabulous too - it's much less wooden than in your average Hollywood flick.

For me, a fan of animation, and Japanese Manga animation in particular, it was great eye candy, but that's not enough on it's own. I left feeling it was good but could do better.
3/5
