Summary: Amazing ending to the series
Comment: Wow, this was an amazing conclusion to the astronomical series. I'll stop using big words now =) Anyway, If you've seen the series, you definitely have to get this. And for 30 dollars for a NEW one (at least right now), I would get the special edition. You get nice art card things (that are not attached to the booklet, so I framed them and are scattered in my room) and there's a small booklet that has sketches of the characters, and there's just so much more stuff! Why are you still reading this, order it!!!

Summary: A pretty good ending for a great series
Comment: Since several people follow my anime reviews often. I know some haven't seen the series. So for those purposes, I will not reveal any of the story. Those who seen the series already know the events concerning the Philosophers Stone and the fate of the brothers. This movie picks up after the ordeal and ties up loose ends.
Right off the back. Don't expect the same greatness from the series. Everything that made the series great, gets bumped down some. This movie is meant to finish everything. Character development is non existent. The new characters introduced are meant to fulfill small roles and they do just that. The battle scenes are good and thankfully aren't very short. The slow pace for the first 30 minutes or so pays off.
The only thing that got better was the animation. As if that could have been possible. The animation does surpass the tv series a bit. And the soundtrack is just as impressive.
Like End of Evangelion, this movie is not meant to be your introduction. There is no backstory, it's treated in a way that the viewer should know what is going on. I won't give hints on the ending except it does provide closure. If you liked the series, at the very least this should be rented. Overall, I would give this a 3.5.

Summary: Interesting continuation
Comment: This feature is a good way to get back in touch with the characters that made the FMA series amazing. It's interesting to see how they adapt to their changed lives. The Nazi storyline was very Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, but still entertaining. Overall, this was a satisfactory follow-up, with the only real negatives being that the whole story felt extremely rushed, while some sequences dragged on.
