About this product

Product Information

Beloved television cult director Joss Whedon (BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER, ANGEL) makes a spectacular first foray onto the big screen with SERENITY, the cinematic adaptation of his wildly popular but short-lived sci-fi series, FIREFLY. A mix of space western, comedy, and drama, SERENITY follows captain Malcolm "Mal" Reynolds (Nathan Fillion) and his ragtag crew as they trade their way around the edges of civilized society. Of particular interest are two passengers they take on, Simon and River Tam (Sean Maher, Summer Glau), a brother and his telepathic sister on the run from the corrupt governing Alliance. As notorious former members of the anti-Alliance opposition, Mal and his crew make it difficult for Simon and River to stay hidden. Everything goes completely awry when a government assassin is sent to retrieve River. As Mal is forced to choose between his close-knit crew and the brother and sister newcomers, it becomes apparent that River harbors both a dangerous secret and astounding fighting powers, and Mal decides that discovering the truth about what she knows might just be worth his time.Many of the film's action sequences revolve around Summer Glau's martial arts skills in her portrayal of River. Glau prepared for her role with Hong Kong stuntwoman Ming Lu, as well as stunt coordinators Chad Stahelski and Hiro Koda, and as a resulted performed nearly all the stuntwork herself. In addition to the stellar stunts, realistic graphics, and an often haunting score, the film's actors display a rare chemistry that brings viewers both into their lives and into a possible version of humanity's future.

  • Serenity movie

    This was a great addition to the tv series, Firefly, which should not have been cancelled. The movie was a bit more serious than the series, but still had it's comical moments. Nathan Fillion was an excellent leader to the group of misfits that inhabited the Serenity, each playing their parts in total devotion to their captain. The ending was very climatic and victorious for the group, though losing part of their crew. I would definitely recommend this movie.

  • Terrific follow-on movie to the Firefly series

    Firefly was a great series that got unfairly canceled after one short season. Serenity is a great follow-up movie that continues this outer space Robin Hood story with the same great ensemble cast. A great movie-length episode that pretty much stands alone without having seen the Firefly series, although it would add greatly to the entertainment value to watch Firefly, first to understand each character's background and past relationship with each other.

  • Serenity movie based on Firefly tv series

    I am so pleased that I bought the movie. I have watched it so many times and still enjoy the movie every time. I really appreciated that the movie picks up where the tv series stopped. I like each character and wish there were more movies made in order to follow the story lines. Thanks to Joss Whedon and all the actors.

  • Love it

    Wish it would have been a longer series but the movie was even better, although sad. If anyone is out there that has a say, remake it and bring it back.
