Editor's Note
Set two years after the final episode of the FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST TV series, this film picks up with Edward Elric's attempts to rediscover the alchemical powers that once he had, enabling him to return to his world. Stuck in the parallel realm of Earth, Elric has lost the powers that brought him here, but has taken up the study of rocketry in the hopes of regaining them. He is aided by Alphonse, a young man who bears a striking resemblance to the brother Elric left behind, and who now toils to find a way to join Elric.

"Here's the thing about anime: It's not about the story, it's about emotion, getting you to feel what the characters are feeling....Just go with it." -- Grade: B- 09/22/2006 p.81DVD Verdict 8 of 10
"Fans of the first few volumes will find plenty more to like in this installment. Fullmetal Alchemist has really hit its stride, and continues to be a treat for a wide range of anime fans. If you haven't yet checked out the series, it's well worth it." - Joel Pearce
