![]() The biggest thing that people who watch the film may not like is that in order to get the 'full' Final Fantasy XV story you have to get the game as well. All of the events are set after Noctis leaves the city of Insomnia and before Final Fantasy XV starts. Noctis and his friends, who are the stars of Final Fantasy XV, have been sent out, so Noctis can wed Lunafreya. The film is centred around King Regis, Lady Lunafreya, and the Kingsglaive, most notably Nyx. If you've followed Final Fantasy XV for a while and know some of its lore then the story will be a lot clearer. The film has a good tale to tell, but if you have no prior experience to Final Fantasy XV, then you may get lost in the story and wonder what the hell is going on. Kingsglaive's narrative is where it starts to falter. It does improve towards the end, but is certainly noticeable. The rest of the cast isn't too bad either, however, one character's voice acting was noticeably worse than the others, and that was Libertus, who stood out and felt out of place. All do a great job at voicing their characters, which is to be expected. The three protagonists Nyx Ulric, Lunafreya Nox Fleuret, and King Regis Lucis Caelum are voiced by Aaron Paul (Breaking Bad), Lena Headey (Game of Thrones) Sean Bean (The Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones) respectively. The cast is also very good too, especially when it concerns the main characters. One track in particular, 'Calling for Rain,' is very catchy and is sure to be a favourite amongst viewers and Final Fantasy fans. The music is as you'd expect from Final Fantasy dramatic, orchestral, soothing, and relaxing, although there are of course exceptions. The film's score is exceptional too, with each piece setting the tone for the respective scene. The same can be said for the film's locations, too, as the city of Insomnia is exquisitely detailed, with each building having a great amount of attention paid to it. This is one of the best looking CGI films to date, as the characters look almost lifelike and at a glance you might think they were real. CGI has been improving rapidly over the past decade, and Kingsglaive follows that trend and then some. The biggest positives are the CGI and special effects they're simply jaw-dropping. But is the film any good? Well, if you're a fan of Final Fantasy (better if you are die-hard fan of FFXV), then the answer would be yes, but that's not the case if you're just here for the movie. It has been out for a while and the game, Final Fantasy XV, was recently released too. Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV was announced at the Uncovered event for Final Fantasy XV back in March 2016. If you were surprised by the fact that Final Fantasy XV was getting a CG film then you wouldn't be the only one. ![]()
