Objectively: This is a simple and concise short made up of material relating to the Ishval war in Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood. I didn't notice any transitions and on a technical level everything seems well put together. This works very well as a standalone short.

Subjectively: I didn't care much for the series when I saw it, and so I can't say this was really for me. The narrative is heavy-handed and melodramatic, and I can't say I'm a fan of the dubbing. It's a shame that the Japanese track wasn't included as an option (there were two audio tracks, but both seemed to be dub?). I'm sure that anyone who IS a fan of the series will get more out of it, as it is well put together.
