The incomprehensible back story didn't dim my enjoyment much. The movie is a crackerjack audio-visual thrill ride.

Fullmetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos
Overview
A fugitive alchemist with mysterious abilities leads the Elric brothers to a distant valley of slums inhabited by the Milos, a proud people struggling against bureaucratic exploitation. Ed and Al quickly find themselves in the middle of a rising rebellion, as the exiled Milos lash out against their oppressors. At the heart of the conflict is Julia, a young alchemist befriended by Alphonse. She'll stop at nothing to restore the Milos to their former glory – even if that means harnessing the awful power of the mythical Philosopher's Stone.

Fans, go be with your people. Others, approach cautiously.

The widescreen canvas is an improvement over television's limited expanse. But if you're not among the indoctrinated, don't bother.
Andy Webster, New York Times

This is a very intelligent, well-plotted story - and my hunch is that we have not seen the last of our heroes.
