Fullmetal Alchemist Reviews
Nerdist
Scott Beggs
This couldn't have been an easy series to distill into one movie, but even so, the thinness of the plot doesn't do justice to the characters or the jaw-dropping visuals and design.
Cultured Vultures
Carlos Frigo
Key aspects of storytelling, character building, and presentation are thrown out the window, and the finished product is a frustrating 135 minutes that feels like Chinese water torture.
GeeksHaveGame
Chris Sawin
Just because the visuals are nice in Fullmetal Alchemist doesn't mean we can overlook the lame costume design, the strained acting, or the piss poor representation of a beloved anime and manga series.
Common Sense Media
Renee Schonfeld
Violence, gore, peril in live-action manga adaptation.
Geek
Bob Chipman
An ultra-condensed, very fast-moving yet also sluggish-feeling run-through of the major story points from the Manga and the two Anime series.
The Young Folks
Evan Griffin
It's hard to recommend to anyone but the most faithful of curious fans.
IGN Movies
Kaori Shoji
Fullmetal Alchemist has some good things going for it, but needs to fix the leaks and sputtering in the narrative's engine. The movie leaves room for a sequel, so maybe we'll get to see a new and improved Hagaren soon.
The Daily Dot
Danielle Ransom
Although not quite the disaster of previous manga adaptations, the film still falls short of the original story.
The Mary Sue
Kaila Hale-Stern
Where this version really won me over is with its compelling effects and worldbuilding. It's hard to translate the madcap randomness and outrageousness of anime action into, well, real life, but Sori gives it a spirited go.
Den of Geek
Daniel Kurland
This film may be strong enough to create new Fullmetal Alchemist fans out of those who are unfamiliar with the source material, but it's not impressive enough for existing fans of the property to think that this is a home run, either.
Hollywood Reporter
Deborah Young
Characters come and go quickly, leaving a feeling that there is too much compression of the multi-episode story.
Variety
Richard Kuipers
Following [a] spirited set-up, the story never gains much propulsion or emotional weight.
Asian Movie Pulse
Panos Kotzathanasis
"Fullmetal Alchemist" is an impressive film to look at (minus the blond wigs), but unfortunately, in terms of narrative, characters, and adapting is a mediocre effort.
Thrillist
John Maher
Even in movies, the laws of equivalent exchange apply: you can't get out any more, or any less, than what you put in.
Decider
Kayla Cobb
If you're a fan of the franchise, it's worth checking out. It's a watch that pales in comparison to the original, but Fullmetal Alchemist makes for such a good story, even a bad version of it has weight.
