Robert Abele Los Angeles Times Fans, go be with your people. Others, approach cautiously. Rated: 3/5 Jan 20, 2012 Full Review Andy Webster New York Times The widescreen canvas is an improvement over television's limited expanse. But if you're not among the indoctrinated, don't bother. Rated: 3/5 Jan 19, 2012 Full Review David Lewis San Francisco Chronicle This is a very intelligent, well-plotted story - and my hunch is that we have not seen the last of our heroes. Rated: 3/4 Jan 19, 2012 Full Review Jeffrey M. Anderson Common Sense Media The movie is gorgeously animated and has many powerful images and ideas. Rated: 3/5 Jan 30, 2012 Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru Exhilarating, intelligent and compelling with plenty of surprises and dazzling animation. Rated: 8.75/10 Jan 20, 2012 Full Review Rene Rodriguez Miami Herald Like a lot of anime, the movie remains entertaining even when you have no idea what's going on. Rated: 2.5/4 Jan 19, 2012 Full Review Read all reviews

Liam D It might not be as good as the anime but for an big screen adaptation it's still an impressive movie Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/02/23 Full Review Audience Member Simply amazing soundtrack and everything about the movie Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Very good. Animation was very different from brotherhood however it worked very well for the story that was being told. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Works very well as a standalone arc, but if you haven't seen BROTHERHOOD, the motivation and struggle of these characters may be lost to new viewers. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/10/18 Full Review Audience Member Incredible in every regard, The Sacred Star of Milos proves that the franchise is far from dead. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Good animation and plot but strictly filler or more of a fan service. Doesn't add anything to the FMA main story line, also the timeline would be somewhere in the middle of FMA: Brotherhood, would have preferred if it were a continuation to the series. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
