Serenity offers perfect proof that Firefly deserved a better fate than premature TV cancellation. Joss Whedon's acclaimed sci-fi Western hybrid series was ideally suited (in Browncoats, of course) for a big-screen conversion, and this action-packed adventure allows Whedon to fill in the Firefly backstory, especially the history and mystery of the spaceship Serenity's volatile and traumatized stowaway, River Tam (Summer Glau). Her lethal skills as a programmed "weapon" makes her a coveted prize for the power-hungry planetary Alliance, represented here by an Operative (Chiwetel Ejiofor) who'll stop at nothing to retrieve River from Serenity's protective crew. We still get all the quip-filled dialogue and ass-kicking action that we've come to expect from the creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but Whedon goes a talented step further here, blessing his established ensemble cast with a more fully-developed dynamic of endearing relationships. Serenity's cast is led with well-balanced depth and humor by Nathan Fillion as Captain Mal Reynolds, whose maverick spirit is matched by his devotion to crewmates Wash (Alan Tudyk), Zoe (Gina Torres), fun-loving fighter Jayne (Adam Baldwin), engineer Kaylee (Jewel Staite), doctor Simon (Sean Maher), and Mal's former flame Inara (Morena Baccarin), who plays a pivotal role in Whedon's briskly-paced plot. As many critics agreed, Serenity offered all the fun and breezy excitement that was missing from George Lucas's latter-day Star Wars epics, and Whedon leaves an opening for a continuing franchise that never feels cheap or commercially opportunistic. With the mega-corporate mysteries of Blue Sun yet to be explored, it's a safe bet we haven't seen the last of the good ship Serenity. --Jeff Shannon

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - This is a good movie, fairly difficult to find.
I began looking for "Serenity" after I rented the entire "Firefly" series. I was beginning to feel frustrated because in my small town all we have is a Wal-Mart and they don't carry "Serenity." It was very convenient to pop online and order "Serenity." It arrived in about a week. The case was a little dented, but it was still wrapped in the celophane and the disk plays perfectly, so no worries, right?



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Shiny!
This was a great series (Firefly) followed by a great movie. I hope Mr. Whedon makes another.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A well made end to a wonderful franchise
I was a bit skeptical when I learned that Firefly would be transferred to the big screen, but I should know by now not to doubt the Whedon. Set shortly after the end of the television show, Serenity seamlessly movies us into a marvelous capstone for the series we all fell in love with. Serenity answers many of the questions that have plagued fans since the show met its untimely end, and provides a hopeful and energizing send-off to a wonderful group of characters. Otherwise, the packaging is pretty ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - WOW!
My children have been raving about this movie and after I saw it, I could see why they are Brown Coat Fans. I guess I'm one now, too!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Loved it, and didn't even know it was from a series!
A friend recommended this. We watched and didn't even know it was a series until our friend told us. After that, we had to watch the series. The series is good, but the movie is even better. It's full of action, adventure and a few twists. You'll find the characters likeable and you'll find yourself rooting for them. Watch it, you will not be disappointed, even if you are not a sci-fi fan.
