The Film "Serenity" serves as a cliffhanger-ending to the Cult-Hit TV Series "Firefly". "Firefly" aired on the FOX network between the years 2002 and 2003. FOX aired the episodes out of order (Wich caused the series to recieve poor ratings.) and doomed the phenominal series right out the gate. Regardless, I was a dedicated viewer all through its run. Then FOX released the Series in a DVD boxed set, and BAM! it brought in a lot of revenue. Universal stepped in and treated the fans (and listened to thier pleading) to something spectacular. "Serenity" works just fine as a stand-alone Sci-Fi film. It's got a great Story, wonderful characters, and is full of action. For fans of the show, "Serenity" is something more, an experience. "Serenity" is our last outing with the wonderful crew, and boy does it deliver.
What's great about it: The Story, Premise, Characters, Acting, Writing, and the Directing.
What's not so great: Nothing!

Serenity - Looking it's Best in 4K

Serenity continues the magic of the original Firefly series, helping to bring some closure to a great series that ended way too soon. Joss Whedon had a very special show, taking an everyday man and his eclectric crew, just trying to make a living on the frontier of space, while the corporate elite try to consume and control everything. No social commentary here.
Presented in 4K, Serenity has never looked better. This is an upscale from a 2K master according to sources, which had me originally wonder if it would be worth re-buying. At it's current price (around $18) it is. A definite must for fans of the original series.
There's a nice increase in detail and clarity while maintaining some grain and the look of film. The lettering and detail on the Serenity pops, textures on clothes are clearer, along with facial details. Colors look stronger too. I tried the included 1080p blu ray afterwards (which always looked strong), to compare, and it looks lighter and more washed out. A few of the special effects suffer slightly from the increase in resolution (the scene where the Serenity lands in an open field or the Rever ship chasing it looks more fake), and in one or two scenes faces looked a little shinier than normal, but that might be me nitpicking.
This is a great buy at this price, and Serenity won't look any better unless they ever do a full 4K or higher scan from the original 35mm prints. Watching this again made me want more Firefly and wonder why this amazing series had such a short run.
Serenity in 4K is the way to go!

The show the film is based on was unfortunately cancelled after not being given a real chance. The shows were aired as they were produced rather than in order, the production schedule demanded for the show left Joss Whedon little time to create elaborate environments, which only appear in a handful of the only season made. The show was often preempted for sporting events and left with no real conclusion when it was cancelled. This film stands on its own right and is fairly easy to follow, however, you get a much different perspective if you watch the show as well. The film is well done and is an awesome sci fi film. The production and adventure is on a much grander scale so it doesn't disappoint. Some sci fi movies based on a show end up being just long episodes, with some reruns of a tv show with greater worth than the film. This movie allows for an incredible conclusion to the story, or if you see this first, an incredible start. That's how i got into it. I saw the film, i got hooked, and i bought the series, also available here. Check it out, its a good buy.
What's great about it: Awesome film
What's not so great: Wish the show was still on

I'm not sure how it hold up as a standalone movie( I imagine it would feel a bit slow) but it is the best possible wrapup to an awesome series that was tragically cut short.
What's great about it: All the same characters, all the same action and comedy.
What's not so great: It's over =(

This movie is a masterpiece. If firefly never makes a return it will be a travesty to the entire film industry. Everyone needs to experience firefly and serenity. Tell all your friends. Let's get an army of browncoats to bring it back! You can't take the sky from us!
What's great about it: Everything
What's not so great: Nothing

I completely loved this movie in every way. It's based off the TV show Firefly. While you need not watch the show before the movie, it still is a great idea. You really get connected with the characters. I drove to Chicago from VA just to see this movie on it's very first showing. Joss Whedon is amazing and so is this movie. If you like SciFi at all you will not be disappointed.

'Lil Albatross

Operative:"That girl will rain destruction down on you and your ship. She is an albatross, Captain."
Mal:"Way I remember it, albatross was a ship's good luck, until some idiot killed it. Yes, I've read a poem. Try not to faint."
Humanity has made it's way to another solar system, escaping the troubles of the old. They terraformed a massive number of planets and moons, and the massive and sterile Alliance government has brought civilization to all. Captain Mal Reynolds of the Firefly class freighter Serenity is not a fan.
His ragtag crew keep the ship running long enough to get into all manner of trouble with the Alliance, and he harbors a teenage girl that is the Alliance's most wanted, simply because she knows their secrets. She's the albatross, and for reasons even he doesn't always understand, Mal is determined to keep her safe as the Operative of the Alliance remains true to his word; raining destruction and death all around them.
Easily the best Science Fiction feature ever. Definitely the most under-rated. This film has no weak points, no regrets. It's an all around hit that never got it's due.
What's great about it: Joss Whedon is a master storyteller
What's not so great: poor box office returns mean you won't likely see a sequel
