After a critically acclaimed run for a single season, the Firefly series was adapted to the big screen. While the TV series never captured a large audience, it showcased a strong cast and original storyline. The movie version shares the same cast and a strong script. Nathan Fillion leads a crew of renegades who travel on a space ship that gives the movie it's name. Chiwetel Ejiofor launches his career as the military agent chasing a passenger on the ship. This mysterious passenger is magnificently played by Summer Glau who steals several scenes. Fans of Firefly will love the film although will be heartbroken by the loss of a key member of the crew. Its a great movie that is very under-rated.

Mal, the captain of Serenity carries on his ship a very special girl. River, a young psychic who has been trained by the Alliance as a human weapon, was rescued by her brother and thus she represents the number one target for a merciless assassin, sent specifically to get rid of "the evidence". Although she is perceived as a threat by the crew, she will prove to be a priceless key in unveiling a disturbing secret, kept safe at all costs by the Alliance.It's a dramatic story filled with action and shooting while its complex characters contribute decisively to a wonderful atmosphere. You become connected to the events, start to care about the captain, River with her troubled life and the others. The action is pretty spectacular, at one point I started wondering if I was actually seeing The Matrix in space. It definitely looks great for its time although the effects are not groundbreaking. It made me enjoy it from one end to the other, it surprised me with its story and course of events and it thrilled me with its characters. A must see!

Serenity is one of the greatest sci-fi movie of all times. But beware! It is full of complementary value for audience that was fan of Firefly serie. Firefly serie production was interrupted without any end, actually broadcast stopped in mid-season. So this movie stands as full of answers for questions that you wouldn't know if you do not watch serie prior.World of Firefly? Just mix Fallout - Madmax and Startrek. One of the best environment and political system that you wish to imagine yourself. This movie gives it all. Just listen to my words, to enjoy this masterpiece, catch-up with Firefly. It is another masterpiece that you will cry since its production cut in half, at 14th episode of first season...
