Is it because I have always had low expectations for the live-action version, so this one is unexpectedly not ugly. How to say, although the childhood Ed and Al's hair color, as well as the European-style architectural environment and the Europeans played by the Japanese made me play frequently, other characters, whether in costumes, are very restored. Rust, especially, is amazing.
In the battle scene, except for the amazing special effects at the beginning, the back is relatively watery, and there is no more exciting scene.
As far as the story is concerned, I think it is coherent and clear and respects the original without any magical changes. Due to the limited space, directly cutting off the plot of Ska and the master also ensures the integrity and compactness of the story. The plot of the leader and the doctor has been reduced a lot, but the impact is not large. The live-action version did not spend too much time laying out the basic settings so that you can slowly understand and slowly enter the play. After all, it is a fan-oriented work. I think it is a summary. Well done, highlights the point. As the most abusive plot at the beginning, synthetic beasts are reserved more, mainly eliciting a plot between brothers from shaking to trust. The Fifth Research Institute jumped a bit fast... I remember it was a very later plot. But it doesn't matter to the theater version.
How to say I don't think there is a big problem in general, the characters have no OOC, and seeing the original 2D animation re-interpreted by a real person still brings back a lot of memories.
