as everyone wondered what happened after the finale to the original fma. we were blessed with this movie which took place on the other side of the "gate" in pre- ww2 Germany.
now ed is working in rocket science with Al's counterpart who barely gets screen time but i was interested in the character. in this movie we see old faces through the counterparts like Hughes , scar and Bradley which helped the movie.
the movies setting switches between dull Germany to light amestris and is not bad in switching between the two.
the characters do develop a bit but not as much as in the series ... of course but Al's character really annoyed me as he resembled his brother too much and lacked individuality. the animation is good and so is the sound.

Basically its worth the watch after finishing the original series but its nothing to special so be warned.

the fma series is very popular in both the original and the re-adaptation and i can say I'm one of those fans. although most reviews go into detail ill keep it short.
This movie is 2 hours wasted of your time. the "plot" is not connected to the main story and the premise is based around the philosopher's stone (or the star of milos in this movie.) the animation and sound was good enough for any casual fan to get by but the plot was absolutely dreadful due to uninteresting characters being boring and never leaving an impression. the climax was decent as it did ... have a plot twist later to be twisted out of control by revealing the character had been alive this whole time.
Basically stay away from all fma movies as they will leave you as hollow as alphonse.
