I just finished watching it raw, and I must say that it is absolutely amazing. I don't know a whole lot of Japanese but I was able to follow it ok. Square's second foray into a CG movie was a tenfold improvement.
Some interesting points:
--Remember the gunblades from FF8? They make a nice showing here.
--Sephy clones as well, I believe. They refer to Cloud as their "brother" anyway.
--The Turks show up as well, with some guy in a wheelchair.
--The church with the hole in the roof and the flowers growing near the altar, near where you first get Aeris in your party in FF7, still hasn't been repaired after two years.
--I doubt many people will get this one, but Marlene's voice actor sounds alot like Yuzuru's.
--Tifa makes a good bat and batter. Materia makes a good baseball/rock. (Looked alot like "Holy" too.)
--There is a hilarious moment involving a fight scene and the FF7 battle win music.
--Mog has certainly seen better days. He makes an appearance (well, it could be any moogle really) as a stuffed animal.
--Further proof that if you are going to join a cult, never accept anything they ask/offer you to drink.
--Vincent's shoes are hilarious. They look like the beak of a woodpecker.
--In the FF world, cell phones work well even when dropped into a deep pool of water.
On a more serious note, the music was excellent, as to be expecte from Uematsu. There were more than a couple new songs from him as well as some old favorites like Aeris' theme, JENOVA, and OWA. It's been a while since I heard them, but I think a few of The Black Mage's versions were slipped in as well.
I can't wait until I can watch the subbed version. =))
Edit: I just confirmed the Yuzuru suspicion with imdb and ANN.
Edit: FF7:Last Order is out now. From Wiki "It is said to be an anime rendition of the past events prior to the game Final Fantasy VII. It appears to revolve around the event that took place in Nibelheim, involving Zack, Cloud, Tifa and Sephiroth." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Last_Order:_Final_Fantasy_VII

I'm downloading it right now.
Quick question: (i'm not reading your post due to potential spoilers  sorry) Would I need a good knowledge of ff7 to understand the movie? I played FF7 for 10 hours only  . Any link you can give me where it gives a semi-brief background on what happened in FF7 that would be adequate enough for AC?
P.S. did you download it? If so, it didn't come with the subs? I'm sure I'm downloading the raw (since it's only been like 2 days after the premier), but there's also a .rar file that says Subs in the torrent.

Well, if you know japanese, they recap the important things in the beginning of the movie. You'll be at a slight disadvantadge if you haven't played through the entire game, but if you can't understand what they are saying at all, I guess it doesn't really matter ^_^;;
This is a great story analysis of the game, but it's long: http://db.gamefaqs.com/console/psx/file/final_fantasy_vii_plot.txt
You may need to copy and paste it to get around Gamefaqs hotlinking checking :<
Edit in response to Edit: Yes, it does come with a sub file, but the subs are japanese -.-

I downloaded it and was pleasantly surprised to see the inclusion of subtitles.
Then I looked at the nfo and saw that they're Japanese subtitles...

Damn I knew there was a reason I wanted to finally finish FF7. Oddly enough, I could easily beat sephy, but I want to kill all of the weapons first.

Quick Question, since i never had BT before, when i installed it and ran it on my comp-i'm on a dell-a think popped up saying block on all ports, so i just closed. Should i allow?
