Film Review of Final Fantasy The Spirits Within
Year: 2001 Reviewer: Chris Docker
Action packed sci-fi fantasy adventure set in a future where humans hold out against deadly "phantoms". The narrative seems to be a cross between classic comic book and video game, deriving much from the likes of Starship Troopers and Bladerunner. It's animation however, and yet as we know it: the characters look more like airbrushed humans, or humans-that-look-like-animations rather than the other way round. The dialogue is clunky, but there is enough heart-pumping, realistic action to hold the interest and make it enjoyable.
Rating: 6/10
