Description:
A passenger with a deadly secret. Six rebels on the run. An assassin in pursuit. When the renegade crew of Serenity agrees to hide a fugitive on their ship, they find themselves in an action-packed battle between the relentless military might of a totalitarian regime who will destroy anything - or anyone - to get the girl back and the bloodthirsty creatures who roam the uncharted areas of space. But, the greatest danger of all may be on their ship. From the mind of Joss Whedon (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel) comes a new edge-of-your-seat adventure loaded with explosive battles, gripping special effects and fantastic new worlds.

Amazon.com:
Serenity offers perfect proof that Firefly deserved a better fate than premature TV cancellation. Joss Whedon's acclaimed sci-fi Western hybrid series was ideally suited (in Browncoats, of course) for a big-screen conversion, and this action-packed adventure allows Whedon to fill in the Firefly backstory, especially the history and mystery of the spaceship Serenity's volatile and traumatized stowaway, River Tam (Summer Glau). Her lethal skills as a programmed "weapon" makes her a coveted prize for the power-hungry planetary Alliance, represented here by an Operative (Chiwetel Ejiofor) who'll stop at nothing to retrieve River from Serenity's protective crew. We still get all the quip-filled dialogue and ass-kicking action that we've come to expect from the creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but Whedon goes a talented step further here, blessing his established ensemble cast with a more fully-developed dynamic of endearing relationships. Serenity's cast is led with well-balanced depth and humor by Nathan Fillion as Captain Mal Reynolds, whose maverick spirit is matched by his devotion to crewmates Wash (Alan Tudyk), Zoe (Gina Torres), fun-loving fighter Jayne (Adam Baldwin), engineer Kaylee (Jewel Staite), doctor Simon (Sean Maher), and Mal's former flame Inara (Morena Baccarin), who plays a pivotal role in Whedon's briskly-paced plot. As many critics agreed, Serenity offered all the fun and breezy excitement that was missing from George Lucas's latter-day Star Wars epics, and Whedon leaves an opening for a continuing franchise that never feels cheap or commercially opportunistic. With the mega-corporate mysteries of Blue Sun yet to be explored, it's a safe bet we haven't seen the last of the good ship Serenity. --Jeff Shannon

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - WOW!
My children have been raving about this movie and after I saw it, I could see why they are Brown Coat Fans. I guess I'm one now, too!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Loved it, and didn't even know it was from a series!
A friend recommended this. We watched and didn't even know it was a series until our friend told us. After that, we had to watch the series. The series is good, but the movie is even better. It's full of action, adventure and a few twists. You'll find the characters likeable and you'll find yourself rooting for them. Watch it, you will not be disappointed, even if you are not a sci-fi fan.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - The movie is awesome, but don't buy from this company ever.
I waited for over 2 weeks to receive my order. Once in hand, the DVD would not play in my DVD player for HD, and it won't play on my computer, nor my husband's computer. It's a dud. What a let down. I don't recommend buying the movie through this company ever. I love the movie itself and wanted it in my collection, but now, I have to find another place to buy it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - best movie
One of the all time best movies ever. Joss Whedon is an excellent writer and director. What really puts this movie above the rest is the number of times you can watch it, this is one of the few movies you can watch over and over again and be satisfied.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A fitting complement to the Firefly series
The movie was a well done story that answers many of the questions left when the Firefly series was terminated. If you enjoyed Firefly then Serenity is definitely worth your time.
