Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within
I am a huge fan of the FF game series. The movie does not really follow one of the games, but if you play the games you would immediately recognize the basic elements of the game (everything in the world is made of elements or "spirits", spirits exist without the body, the elements must be collected to save the world). The story was good, and the amount of work which was applied to the animation was astounding. For instance, hair was animated strand-by-strand. This made the characters flow naturally. Some parts of the movie are beyond realistic.
