No surprises to see here. Figured it was going to be a disaster.

Why is it so high in IMDB and so low on others?

Huh, didn't think it would do this badly... #WillYarIt

Although IMDB is quite a high score and I usually go there for movies, I will see how it does once more scores come in. 

Why don't you just say that you are gonna pirate it instead of "yarring" it?

It only has 13 reviews though and most gaming-centric websites have given it praise.The critics that gave it a low score aren't familiar with Final fantasy reading from their reviews nor are familiar with FFXV so it's only expected for them to be lost in this movie(something Nozue should have prevented, so it's also his shortcoming as a director). RT still refuses to include IGN's review on the films RT page for some reason. Also You can't really judge its box office performance when it's only showing for one day I think in VERY small number of screens(less than 20).

The thing is with this movie is, it's only part of a big story, it's a sort of foundation and a way of giving the GAMER better insight to the big story that's going to be in the game. So real film critics will just hate this as they probably don't understand what it's all about. The reviews I've seen say if you're watching it as a stand alone movie then you probably won't like it but if you're watching it to go side by side with the main game to give you a better insight of the whole story then not only will you like it but they highly recommend it to make the game more unstandable as it undoubtably will.

Add me if you want but let me know youre from this website

it's not for movie critics, this is for fans and gamers.



Still better than Final Fantasy the anime.

A sign of things to come.

I don't want to play devil's advocate but this is a japanese made CGI prequel for a japanese video game.It is definitely not western movie reviewers cup of tea.

I'm not saying this movie is good(specially because i don't even expect the game to be good after 10,12 and 13) but it is not something that you expect non weeabos to enjoy. It's like asking roger ebert to review a shonen and expect anything more than harsh criticism.

Exactly, I think this movie is probably a big pile of shit but critic reviews are way less accurate when it comes to this kind of film so they can be ignored.
