Diagonaldi Very well executed

Mjeteconer Just perfect...

SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

petragreen Compared to Shamballa which concluded the original FMA a better movie. However feels kinda forced. It clearly takes place somewhere half way through the brotherhood series but after what episode of the TV show? It does have good action sequences and better plot than Shamballa but the animation and story feels it is lacking in quality compared to the brotherhood TV series. The main problem with this movie is Julia is the main character focused on and Ed and Al are the side characters. Worth watching but feels an unnecessary addition to the TV series.

Eric Stevenson Well, this movie introduced me to one of the most critically acclaimed anime series of all time, "Fullmetal Alchemist". I believe this was one of the few FMA movies to receive mainstream distribution in theaters. I admit to not knowing much about the franchise, so I might get a couple of facts wrong when I critique it. I at least know the names of the main characters and understand some of the basic premise. This movie features the Elric brothers, Ed and Al. Although both are said to have lost their spirits, only a fraction of Ed's body looks mechanical. This movie features them saving a town called Milos by finding the scared star.Yeah, the title says everything. There's this woman named Julia who appears and it was weird not knowing if she was a main character in the series or not. What I love about this film is how beautiful the animation is and how great the action scenes are. We get tons of creative environments and elements. While not a fan, that's all I want in something to love it! Anyone can enjoy this beautiful film that's nicely paced with great voice acting and likable characters. Ed(ward) is easily my favorite and that's pretty handy when he happens to be the main character. Should please any anime fan, just like me. ***1/2

manendra-lodhi The film is a complete pack of extraordinary imagination. And important thing is that these kind of experiments looks right with animation movies only. When one sits to watch an animation film, one is fully convinced and prepared to see something extraordinary. I thoroughly enjoyed the film in every aspect. However after seeing the reviews I found that people were disappointed because in the original series fullmetal is the main character. The film might look to be a show of mishandled characters to some of those who have seen the TV series already. However for a new viewer like me, it was a complete treat. After watching the film I knew that the main character is somewhat kept aside most of the time but I personally considered that it was a perfect way compared to the 4th part of the pirates film. So, overall I enjoyed each and every minute of the film."A must watch for all animation lovers and a definite one time watch for all others."

TheSuccessorOfTheReaper I'm a big fan of Brotherhood. If you consider brotherhood, you can tell something like sense of humor, drawings, drama and psychological factors.About this thing, when I saw Ed's face I thought I was watching a fan-made movie or something like. I don't know who visualized this time but It's kind of a betrayal to the original series.Story is also terrible. I couldn't wait until I see the next episode during the brotherhood because story was absorbing but This time Im so bored.As a fan after watching the whole episodes it's a great thing to see something new about Fullmetal Alchemist but not in this way...
