Reviews

Despite its stunning visual effects and captivating action sequences, 'Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV' struggles to deliver a cohesive narrative that resonates with audiences. Critics have praised the film's animation quality and impressive CGI, showcasing the intricate details of the fantastical world of Final Fantasy. However, the sparse character development and convoluted plot hinder the viewer's emotional connection to the story. With a mix of positive and negative reviews, the film's rating of 6.7/10 on IMDb, 12% on Rotten Tomatoes, and 35/100 on Metacritic reflects its polarizing reception among fans and critics alike. Some describe it as a visually stunning but ultimately shallow experience, while others appreciate its dedication to the beloved game franchise.
