Serenity (2005)

Serenity

This review is based upon the fact I'm a huge fan of the TV-show Firefly, and my ability to rate this movie on its own is nonexistent.

Firefly was sadly canceled in its first season, but this movie got to make a closure to several of the questions the fans of the show asked themselves. It's not perfect, even for those familiar with the storylines, but it does at least reward the fans with some inside jokes and character based behavior.

The arch mystery of River Tams faith is the important part of the movie, and the part we were looking forward to enjoy slowly in the show. I wish I could have enjoyed it the way it was supposed to be, but Whedon has done quite well taking it to the big screen for a final Serenity-reunion three years after the show got canceled.

A must see for any Firefly fan, but not mind-blowing in many ways.
