Fans of Firefly and Serenity’s brief but exciting space journeys on TV should run, not walk, to their nearest theater to see Josh Whedon’s Serenity. What a complete breath of fresh air seeing a solid screenplay, lively acting, realistic and likeable characters and a director who leaves nothing on the table. The fans wanted this film badly and Whedon doesn’t disappoint. Want truly scary antagonists? Drop your Blue Oyster Cult and do fear the Reavers!

We caught the 7pm showing tonight and it was about half full. I think once the word and more reviews get out this film is going to make a lot of money this weekend. While leaving I heard somebody say: “That was pretty good.” Really, I can’t see anybody that liked Firefly not really liking Serenity. The questions are answered! Easily the best movie I’ve seen in 2005. If I say any more I’ll just ruin the film, so I’m not going to spoil the fun. I wish all movies were this engaging. If you like science fiction go see this film. Grade: A+
