Die Brüder Edward und Alphonse Elric führen nach dem Tod ihrer Mutter im Kindesalter ein gefährliches Experiment durch: Sie wollen die Verstorbene mittels Alchemie wieder zum Leben erwecken. Doch der Versuch geht schief und die Brüder bleiben verstümmelt zurück. Edward verliert einige Gliedmaßen, Alphonse sogar seinen ganzen Körper. Ihnen bleibt nur, Alphonses Seele in eine Rüstung zu übertragen, in der er fortan existiert. Jahre später, ist Edward bekannt als Fullmetal Alchemist und wird immer noch von dem Wunsch getrieben, seinen Bruder zu heilen. Nur der sagenumwobene Stein der Weisen könnte ihm jetzt noch helfen – aber die Elrics sind nicht die einzigen, die nach diesem sagenumwobenen Artefakt sucheen.

Fullmetal Alchemist Rezensionen & Wertungen

jackmeat5. November 2024
My quick rating - 5.9/10. I had heard good things about this live-action adaptation of the popular manga and anime series, bringing to life the tale of two alchemist brothers, Edward (Ryôsuke Yamada) and Alphonse (Atom Mizuishi) Elric. Their journey begins with a tragic attempt to resurrect their deceased mother, an experiment that backfires disastrously, leaving Edward without an arm and a leg, and Alphonse's soul bound to a suit of armor. Determined to restore their bodies, they embark on a quest to find the elusive Philosopher's Stone. The film's narrative is steeped in rich lore and alchemical intrigue, reminiscent of the detailed world-building seen in the Harry Potter series. The story's depth and complexity offer an engaging premise, drawing you into a world where alchemy blends seamlessly with the fabric of everyday life. However, the execution of this intricate plot is somewhat marred by the film's tonal inconsistencies. One of the standout elements is its quirky characters, each bringing a unique flavor to the story. Yet, their portrayal often veers into the realm of over-the-top sitcom antics, which can feel jarring against the darker, more serious undertones of the story. This sitcom-like acting style detracts from the gravitas of the brothers' quest and the emotional weight of their personal tragedies, making it challenging to fully immerse in the story's more poignant moments. Visually, the film offers a mix of impressive and lackluster CGI effects. The depiction of alchemical transmutations is a visual treat, capturing the magical essence of the source material. However, some of the creature designs and action sequences fall short, occasionally pulling us out of the experience due to their inconsistency in quality. Despite not having read the manga, I was familiar with its existence, which provided some context for the film's narrative. This adaptation, while ambitious, seems to struggle with balancing faithfulness to the original story and the constraints of live-action filmmaking. The film's pacing feels rushed at times, as it attempts to condense a sprawling and complex story into a manageable runtime, leading to an uneven flow and some underdeveloped plot points. In summary, I found it a mixed bag. It succeeds in introducing the fascinating world of alchemy and its eccentric characters to a new audience. The prime-time sitcom-like acting, combined with inconsistent visual effects and a rushed narrative, makes it difficult to fully engage with the story's emotional core. For fans of the original manga and anime, this adaptation might offer some nostalgic moments, but it falls short of capturing the full magic and depth of its source material. I am still looking forward to checking out the 2 sequels sitting in my watchlist.
