Just finished this movie and I can say for sure: I was not disappointed!!
It's been a while since I've seen the Anime, so I kind of forgot what happened in detail. The story is fascinating and beautifully shown though!
At some points I thought things were happening a little bit too fast but as I can recall, so did in the Anime.
Sometimes I had the feeling that the feelings weren't as emotional as in the anime but maybe that's because I KNOW the anime already so I wasn't really surprised about anything.
Still - you understand the story well because everything is explained.

The acting and the cast were perfect - well maybe I would've imagines Prof. Tucker a little bit differently but other than that they really did an amazing job in choosing the actors! I recognized so much from the anime and I  really really hope there will be a second movie. I was really curious about who they would choose for Roy and at first glance at the trailer I was worried about the cast for Edward but I after I've seen this movie I'm glad they chose those two.
Also: I was very happy about the animation and the effort they put into the settings and the costumes!

The music -  that's the only thing that I was a little bit sad about because I remember the music from the anime which I couldn't stop listening to for a while. Maybe that's also why some scenes didn't seem as emotional for me as they originally were.

Overall I think this anime adaption is really well done and I would recommend it to everyone - also to those who haven't seen the anime :)
