Trivia
Atom Mizuishi was brought on as a motion-capture actor for Alphonse Elric. Director Fumihiko Sori was so impressed with his performance that he cast Mizuishi as Alphonse's voice actor too, with approval from Alphonse's original voice actor Rie Kugimiya.

Goofs
In the manga and anime, Edward Elric (Ryosuke Yamada) is shown as coming up to only the shoulders of the major supporting characters (Roy Mustang, Riza Hawkeye, and Maes Hughes, for example). In this movie, not only is he a lot closer to the heights of the supporting characters, he is also taller than Winry Rockbell (Tsubasa Honda).

Quotes
[from trailer]
Edward Elric: [to his brother] promise I'll get our bodies back.

Crazy credits
After the first part of credits, there is a scene where Envy's burned up body starts cracking and a little green animal exits from it, then runs away.

A decent movies, but for the fan its a must watch!

Overall, its a decent movies that have many positive aspect, but the cinematography and directing are not as good as the original, pretty good acting, good cg, as any other anime adaptation it would have its story packed short, its a pretty good job for this one though, yet there's lot of good moments in anime left behind, i don't mind with japanese cast even if the anime setting in alternate universe of europe, otherwise it would've been a better portrayal of the character.
