(PREVIOUSLY ON BOGGER BOX OFFICE...
BADLY ANIMATED FILM WENT FOR BROKE AND SLAPPED ON THE NAME OF THE MOST WELL KNOWN CINEMATIC GAME FRANCHISE TO SELL CINEMA TICKETS! MOVING ON~)
(DEDICATED TO REAL FINAL FANTASY FANS WHO REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS FILM, LET'S CALL IT WHAT IT IS!

To Continue where we left off, our Hero Aki Ross, has the same dream again, this time The Phantoms, as flesh and blood creatures are running towards her, The Next day the World Council is conference on how to deal with the Phantoms. General Hyde proposes to use the satellite cannon he built called Zeus to blast the Meteor the Phantoms came from from Orbit. Dr. Cyd Proposes for a new grant for his Spirit Wave research the end result will be a Spirit Wave Frequency that will humanely force the Phantoms away. When General Hyde insults Cyd's Credentials, Aki Reveals her Heart has the Phantom Pathogen but her heart also contains 6 Spirits keeping the virus at bay as Gray looks on.

Gray, who is also Aki's ex, becomes her Security Detail, whilst the rest of his Unit, the Deep Eyes Commandos puporsely Tamper with their vehicle so the two can talk. It's Here that Aki explains all the Spirits she has Collected.

"Doctor Cyd put an acoustic barrier around my heart so the 1st spirit...was me!

 And that is where I must Stop you there! if are are using sound to stop the Spread of an infection, the last job your Patient should be is an ASTRONAUT...BECAUSE SOUND DOESN'T EXIST WITHOUT AIR TO TRAVEL IN! As you were, woman who looks like Jacko!

"...The 2nd Spirit was a fish, the 3rd a deer in nature reserve in Moscow, the 4th was a bird! Do you know how hard it is to track a bird from Space? what am i Kidding, you would have Loved That!"

And the entire she said that, the scene never changed once or showed flashbacks. This is something that my rival and hero web reviewers complain about constantly "SHOW DON'T TELL!" SHOW US DOING THESE THINGS! Even if it's a still, or a photo, it exists in the fabric of the story!

Aki also tells Gray that the 5th spirit was a dying child who told her she was ready to die, this upsets Aki. Gray doesn't Believe in Gaia, like Cyd and Aki do, but Aki Pushing him away because of the sickness was reason for the split. Gray is informed by General Hyde, that the rest of Deep Eyes is assigned to Dr Ross, But to Arrest her if the Pathogen warps her Mind into a threat!
Aki has a 3rd, more vivid Dream that may confirm the General's fears!

Tuscon, Arizona and Deep Eyes Company are in the midst of the wasteland, here there are Dragon Phantoms that leave a corrosive dust over the land they flew over! They find the penultimate Spirit in a medpak, However a Red coat gets his Soul removed and eaten by the Dragon! Worse the Pathogen had escaped Aki's Accoustic Shell and goes nuts and gets shot. In the Midst of Gray saving her, his unit and Dr Cyd are branded traitors and forced to into Hiding, and has entrusted Gray as a temporary Spirit to save Aki Subconsciously. With Cyd's research blacklisted and Aki's dream recording used against her, General Hyde has permission to blast Ground zero in Botswana with the Zeus Cannon! To his nefarious End, Hyde arrests the technicians maintaining barrier around New York to attract "test subjects" In the Brig, Aki, Cyd and the Deep Eyes conclude on thing from Aki's Dreams, the Phantoms were Warmongers whose Planets Civil War destroyed it's environment! They are now Invaders, they are Messengers! Messengers from a planet that destroyed itself with war and Earth is next!

Sorry, But if you are trying for a "War is as bad Not looking after your Environment during Peacetime" Aesop, You Fail Badly since your film has Technological advanced humans and Phantoms trying to "Warn" us by feeding on souls and corroding the land! By not knowing the Non humanoud Phantoms are just Animals doing animal things! General Hyde has doomed New York but freed our heroes when a Dragon flies into a Turbine!

So lets finish this!
New York is Fucked, the Deep Eyes are picked off one by one as they repair Aki's Ship! Aki Cyd and Gray are flying to Botswana but so so is Hyde. The Zeus is Fired but it Only Merges all The Phantoms into a giant tape-worm! inside the core Aki finds a Phantom that has Spirit Frequency: the last Spirit! it goes to absorb the soul but instead the being is absorbed into aki, Hyde blasts the cannon again but angers the tapeworm Further, Gray sacrifices himself as as his soul is pulled from his body by the tapeworm, his body acts as a crucible to spread the spirit wave to cure the Pathogen as the Tapeworm become a million Willow wisps that spread world wide!

THIS FILM SUCKS!
Slapping a name onto a story is dirty trick, especially if doesn't fit to that franchise! the last time FF went into space was the 8th game ans you can ask Spoony how well that turned out!

The Animation which was lauded in 2001, has aged badly and in a franchise known for Colour, Emotion and Quirkiness, i don't know what is more drab, the grey, black or off white clothes of the humans, the clunky, unfeeling dialogue!

IN SHORT:
FINAL FANTASY: SPIRITS WITHIN: YOU'LL BE BETTER WITHOUT!
