just watch it then . it be pretty damn awesome . the fight be fantastic and the magic be really cool . it totally like a video game in part and with some amazing hand to hand combat in there . this film be for the fan represent to those who love this world once before and spent time with it friend and gather again and devote your time . besides this ominous opening and the story be not very hard to follow and and ihave never play a final fantasy game . i think it pay to be familiar with role play game in general while knowledge of the genre kinda help you grasp some of it good . i think though that if you pay attention and and accept what the film throw at you and it quite easy to understand . there be a lot that isn not explicitly explain and and if you demand that it should be then you will probably be confuse and irritate . watch the film be like be drop into the middle of some grand saga and and have to put a much of the puzzle together a possible . i like that approach while you get catch up in the mystery and confusion that all the character be go through . but like i say and just be accept . if a weird red lion thing that talk and turn up and start kick as and take name and and the other character just say he an old friend and accept it and move on while you do not need a biopic flashback and or a tell all sit me down . you be an observer here and of something beyond your experience and undestanding . so represent fantastic graphic and animation and great voice act and cool video game style music and involve story and character and and maybe some of the cool fight you will see in a while . it worth see and and while it be for the fan and it be perfectly accessible for people like me that have never play the game .
