PLOT



In the year 2065, a meteor has crashed onto Earth unleashing an invading race of millions of strange

phantom-like alien creatures who roam the earth, decimating field and city alike, threatening to extinguish

life itself. But when a brilliant young female scientist, Dr. Aki Ross makes a last stand on Earth with the

help of a ragtag team of soldiers against an invasion of alien phantoms. She seeks information about their

purpose and physiology, assisted by her mentor Dr. Sid and the Deep Eyes military squad of courageous

Captain Gray Edwards Aki's old friend. Tension develops between Aki's quest to stop the alien onslaught

through study and the more extreme solution favored by the vengeful, saber-rattling General Hein, who would

destroy both the aliens and the Earth itself!

Trivia



Dr. Aki Ross' hair is only half as dense as the average human crop, however, that still left 60,000 strands

to put realistically into motion. When designing the computer graphics, a fifth of the time spent was devoted

to those 60,000 hairs.



The twin towers of the World Trade Center do not appear in any of the New York shots (except in the concept

drawings on the DVD).



This was the first Final Fantasy not scored by series composer Nobuo Uematsu, the man behind the music of all

ten FF games (excluding FF Tactics, composed by Masanari Iwata/Hitoshi Sakimoto). His music is so loved by

fans that it is often released on separate CDs by popular demand.



Due to the poor performance of the film at the box office, Square Pictures announced its "retirement" from

the film business in October 2001. The studio did, however, go on to produce the short film Final Flight of

the Osiris (2003) in a similar realistic CGI style to Final Fantasy, which played in theaters before

Dreamcatcher (2003) and was released as the first of a series of short films set in the Matrix on DVD

entitled The Animatrix.



The serial number 102171, that's found on the side of the Black Boa, is the birth date of one of the artists

who designed and textured the ship.
