Serenity

Poor Firefly, you will always be missed. Luckily, we have Serenity to comfort us. Poor Serenity sequels, you would have been missed if you ever existed.

Lets not get sidetracked, or lost in tears, or what-ifs like this. Serenity is Joss Whedon's film directorial debut. A god among television viewers (or at least those with good taste), Whedon has given the fans what they wanted. He gave us one last adventure with Captain Malcolm Reynolds and his misfit crew. I never thought I'd see Kaylee, or Jayne, or Wash, or Zoe, or Inara, or Simon, or River, or even Book again. Whew. But they were friends, or as much as fictional characters can be. This sci-fi space opera has the rag-tag crew travel the universe in order to undermine the intergalactic douchebags, the Alliance. Nathan Fillion, Alan Tudyk, Adam Baldwin, and Summer Glau all shine. It is to be advised that the best viewing comes after watching the Firefly series this film was based on. It was a short season, you can do it.

And may it be added, Chiwetel Ejiofor's the Operative is a fantastic villain. Also, keep an eye on the long shot that introduces us to the crew and ship.
