Serenity Reviews
You don't need to be a fan, or have watched the show, or even like the genre to appreciate one of the best science-fiction movies of the 21st century.

Sadly, it seems certain that Whedon listened too carefully to the suits at Fox who told him to pump up the action.

Fans are sure to be pleased, but if writer/director Josh Whedon is looking to develop a new fan base, Serenity isn't the way to do it.
| Original Score: C | Nov 19, 2019
Boasting an intriguing plotline, breakneck pacing, characters with depth and a good deal of knowing humor alongside some gobsmacking special effects, Serenity is the true successor to [Star Wars].
| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 27, 2019
Thank you, [Joss], for creating this world, for seeing it through, and for giving us die-hard fans the closure we so desperately needed. You just earned yourself a lifetime pass from geeks everywhere.
| Original Score: 10/10 | Oct 25, 2018
A lovely example of 온라인카지노추천 sci-fi doing what it does best, and with an amount of money that no 온라인카지노추천 sci-fi ever had at its disposal.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 7, 2017
. . .it's got plenty of sci-fi soul food including tough-talking space cowboys with marshmallow hearts, blistering boobie babes, sassy sidekicks and blood thirsty savages.

Whedon's years in 온라인카지노추천 have helped him hone a clean, efficient, entertaining style grounded in character, camaraderie and his trademark dialogue...

After suffering through a summer crammed with 온라인카지노추천 shows being remade into movies, it's refreshing to see a movie based on a 온라인카지노추천 show that is so entertaining that it actually makes you want to go and see the show of which the movie was created.
| Original Score: 8/10 | Aug 10, 2012
New viewers will be a little bit lost, and old fans won't get quite everything they wanted, but there's enough going on in Serenity and it's all so much fun that it doesn't matter.
| Original Score: 7/10 | Mar 30, 2011
In the end you are left with the feeling that Whedon works better on television than in the cinema.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Oct 18, 2008
Hardcore fans will undoubtedly be satisfied but its unlikely this will spread much beyond that audience, and even they will find it lacks that human spark and freshness that made the series distinctive and appealing.
| Jan 15, 2008
For what it is -- viewed as filmmaking in and of itself -- "Serenity" is tense and smoothly put together.
| Original Score: C | Sep 23, 2007
A magnificent closer to the series, and Whedon shows how much love he has for his fans by giving us a quality finisher...

Joss Whedon makes a rousing feature-directing debut, exploiting the cult status of his short-lived series Firefly to continue it on the big screen.
| Jun 6, 2007
Firefly finally has the triumphant finale fans longed for: the excitingly tense, often surprising and even more frequently comical Serenity. Fans will rejoice.
Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Aug 31, 2006
The settings and tone are hyper-real, yet the human behaviour is grounded and credible, the moral conflicts complex and involving. Shiny, intelligent fun.
| Jun 24, 2006
In the context of an action cinema driven by false hope, misogyny and sadism, Serenity is an inspiring respite.
| May 27, 2006
Go out and see Joss Whedon's witty whizbang of an action movie, or we will kill a kitten.
Full Review | May 12, 2006
The movie is a sci-fi buccaneer swashbuckler; Whedon hits all the obligatory space-opera notes, and he does it with a degree of verbal wit and agile pacing that could teach George Lucas a thing or two.
| Original Score: 4/5 | May 12, 2006
