DVD Reviews of Serenity (Collector's Edition)
DVD Review: Alone in the Verse
Summary: 1 Stars
I hated this movie. What had been a show about Mal and his crew became a movie, River the Reaver Slayer. At the big fight scene, I wish everyone had died and just ended the stupid movie since to me Firefly was dead. Yes there were a few good moments and some great lines but that was at the beginning of the movie. Jayne (Adam Baldwin) was terrific as usual. I saw the movie at an advanced screening and refused to see it when it hit theaters and would never ever waste my money on it like I wasted my time seeing it.DVD Review: A Far-From-Serene Surprise
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm not a big sci-fi fan, and I never watched the TV show upon which this movie was based. A good friend twisted my arm--almost physically--and convinced me to give this movie a chance. I finally popped in the DVD yesterday and...Wow!
"Serenity" is what so many other movies try to be. It's clever, campy, witty, fun, thrilling, while also throwing in tidbits of social and religious commentary. From universe-shaking conspiracies, to clairvoyance, to good old swashbuckling adventure, this is an entertaining movie. The plot's been told enough times here, but suffice it to say that imagination runs high and the characters each have their own distinct personalities and purposes. This is storytelling in all its wild-eyed, woolly-haired fun, and I'm sorry I didn't jump on board "Serenity" sooner.
DVD Review: Best Scifi ever!
Summary: 5 Stars
I learned about the show Firefly on an online forum for Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles and then watch the TV series on Hulu. I loved the show so decided to get the movie. WOW, this is just like the TV show but 100 times better. Best Scifi movie of the new century.DVD Review: One of my favorites
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is simply amazing. Based off of the not so well known cult hit "Firefly", this movie continues the story that that prematurely canceled series was never able to. To those of us who loved the series this movie is a treasure. Joss is a masterful storyteller who has created such depth and realism for all of the beloved characters that it really pulls you in, and the special features and commentaries give it excellent replay value. I would suggest this movie to anyone looking for a solid, fun movie.DVD Review: Thanks for the send off Joss
Summary: 5 Stars
This was a farewell from Joss Whedon to the fans of Firefly. It was not received well at the theaters because it was for such a nitch market but the film itself was excellent, with a wonderfully paced story, great and furious action, and evenly paced character development. This film had all the elements. Keeping well in step with the series, Serenity just showed us why Firefly needed to be picked up by another network. Unfortunately it wasn't but this film was a great send off - Thanks Joss
Description of Serenity (Collector's Edition)
The action-packed adventure Serenity continues with the fully loaded Special Collector's Edition! With over 60 minutes of all-new bonus features and never-before-seen footage this must-own set takes you deeper into the incredible worlds created by Joss Whedon (Buffy the Vampire Slayer Angel and Firefly). It's an exclusiveedge-of-your-seat experience that can't be missed.System Requirements:Running Time: 119 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?SCI-FI/FANTASY Rating:?PG-13 UPC:?025195008938 Manufacturer No:?61101072Serenity 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
