THIS WAS AN AWESOME movie.
Now I'm normally a sucker for good sci-fi, but my girlfriend isn't. She HATES anything titled Star-whatever. But we both loved it.
The dialogue is snappy... very funny and interesting.
The visuals are great for a movie that wasn't a blockbuster hit... much better than I expected them to be.
The fighting was incredible... when the lead character River goes into butt-kicking mode, it is truly a beautiful thing to behold.
So overall a funny, well-paced action/adventure that just happens to be in outerspace. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

I chose it through Blockbuster Online based on the user reviews. When reading the text outlining the plot, I wasn't so sure I would like it, but, my wife and I both thoroughly enjoyed it. It was much better than we expected. The plot was good, the acting great, and the special FX were top notch. I highly recommend this movie if you're in the mood for a sci-fi.

I never saw the Firefly series, but the movie was very good. There were some things that may have been referenced to the series, but it was easy to follow. WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

I loved this story of having to fight a military dictatorship. The visuals were great, the good guys were very courageous, and River was a very interesting psychic and fighter. WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

I only wish there would be a Serenity II, III, etc. The characters are all believable and it is a true masterpiece. There is no closure, we want more Joss! No power in the Vers can stop us!

The visuals are very well done. If you have a nerdy streak, liked the original Star Wars movies, etc., you'll enjoy this film. I'd never seen the series, but I'll try it out now.
