Final Fantasy (2001)

I watched “Final Fantasy”.
The original idea is from a quite popular video game.
It was one of “box office bomb”, but personally I thought it was not bad work.
The CG quality is quite high, and the story is not so bad.
3D animation CG technology is now very popular, but it might have be generalized to pay money for CG animation works yet 7 years ago.

The story is interesting, but not easy to understand, and the ending is not happy. They might have been factors of the failure.
The director, Hironobu Sakaguchi, has a characteristic opinion about death, and it influences strongly this work.
I understood the massage of this film as the following:
Death of people who you love is a kind of losing, but it is not everything. It has other aspects and sometimes we need understand it as a positive thing.
