"Best Sci-Fi flick in years..."
5 stars"

Whether you are a fan of “Firefly” the TV series that Serenity is based on or not, there is so much to like about this movie that you'll probably turn into a fan anyway. The storyline is smart and intriguing, the character's unique and well played and the dialogue is some of the sharpest and funniest outside of a Tarantino movie. Writer / director Joss Whedon's crew of characters are instantly likeable. Nathan Fillion makes Captain Mal Reynolds a sort of modern day Han Solo whilst the sexiness duties are handled with ease by Jewel Staite, Morena Baccarin and Summer Glau. Some of the best lines come from Alan Tudyk and Adam Baldwin and as much as I love Star Wars Episode 3, every time I see Serenity I wish that George Lucas had hired Whedon to spice up that movies dialogue. The effects aren't going to bother ILM or Weta but are still completely convincing and well used. Besides Serenity's budget is a fraction of most movies ILM are involved with. For Firefly fans there are are some shock character exits but they only serve to imfuse some urgency and a sense of threat into procedings as the movie winds up to a very satisfying conclusion. All in all Serenity is one of the finest Science Fiction movies of the last two decades and although the cinema box office was disappointing hopefully massive DVD's sales will force Universal to re-consider starting up the Firefly TV series again and everything can go back to beng just “shiny”.

Critic Reviews:

  • " Joss Whedon makes a rousing feature-directing debut, exploiting the cult status of his short-lived series Firefly to continue it on the big screen. " – Andrea Gronvall
  • " The settings and tone are hyper-real, yet the human behaviour is grounded and credible, the moral conflicts complex and involving. Shiny, intelligent fun. " – Nick Funnell
  • " Go out and see Joss Whedon's witty whizbang of an action movie, or we will kill a kitten. " – Ken Tucker
