![]() Still, Olivier's actress was really spot on. I think they could have removed it, and still made the film work. As much as I liked that arc in the manga, it didn't work here. ![]() I think cutting out the Briggs stuff entirely would have benefitted them. My main complaint was how long this film was. The CGI was definitely not great, but I was able to look past it. Overall, I think these films do a better job at adapting Hohenheim's funnier/softer side than the anime does, but that's just me. Also, his voice acting for Father as a blob was really enjoyable! I was also happy they included Hohenheim's "vintage armor" line, as the anime didn't. I was always bummed that hadn't made it into the anime, so I'm glad this film included it. Uchino as Hohenheim is by far my favorite part of the film, and seeing his ending scene with Trisha was really sweet. No live action adaptation of an anime is ever going to be good, especially when they're working with 27 volumes. This movie is by no means perfect, but I still had a lot of fun watching it. Perhaps if you view this as like a fanmade trilogy with more budget in it then you might have a better time. Overall not really something I'd recommend for a live action show but well some people clearly like it so who am I to say what other people will like or not but this review isn't it. It looks worn in for the most part and they tried to really replicate what the anime characters were wearing so that was nice. They sorta fixed it next installment but.eh Costumes were I think the better part of the film. First film Yamada (Edward) dyed his hair and it was really a trashy job people thought it was a wig. Wigs were bad and you can tell they're wigs. You can tell they poured their heart out in making Alphonse look good because he actually is able to blend in with the environment, perhaps some of the alchemy effects as well are good but the rest. I know people can tell it's CGI because normally it's quite impossible for it to be done irl since it's clearly not animatronic nor practical but see they also didn't do the CGI any justice. The bad effects are too noticeable especially in the first and third film. I have watched a lot of Japanese shows that do it this way so to me I'm used to it but I am aware it can be so cringy because it takes you out of the moment. The slapstick comedic timing, exaggerated reactions etc. you know how in anime they react dramatically? That's in here. Acting: Mostly miss if you're not used to the styling. I am wondering if someone who hasn't seen the source material can really bond and understand the nuances of the characters. They just took what they thought were good memorable points then threw it in the pot with no seasoning. So much of the plot points and what made FMA great wasn't present in these movies because they had to cut off so many. Revenge of Scar is probably the best if I were to choose? Likely because there's not a lot of plot points that busy themselves in the story telling. well it really didn't live up to any sort of good expectations for it. FMA anime/manga is one of my favorites, I just finished the trilogy live action just to see it and.
