I love the Fullmetal Alchemist series. I've seen all of the original anime series, and the first movie. I haven't seen Brotherhood yet because my wife isn't all that interested.
Without resorting to spoilers, If I take her to see the second movie, will she be confused because she hasn't seen much? Is it all action? How much inter-personal relationships are covered?

Brotherhood is much closer to the manga and well worth you time. While I love the original, Brotherhood is better in all aspects.

According to that review, you should be able to follow it without having seen Brotherhood, since it focuses mostly on new characters, and takes place midway through Brotherhood. However, I haven't seen the movie, so I can't say for certain.
The Greed arc is roughly where the the original anime and Brotherhood diverge. So even without seeing Brotherhood, there's some backstory that will be familiar.

@McKay Sorry, I missed that part. Until someone else who has seen the movie/has a better review answers, I'd guess she'd be quite confused - Why is Al a suit of armor? Why does Ed have automail?
