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 civilised 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 harbours 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 stunt work 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.

ReviewsNew York Times - Scene for scene, SERENITY is more engaging and certainly better written and acted than any of Mr. Lucas's recent screen entertainments., Entertainment Weekly - TV season's worth of roller-coastering drama, most of it balanced on the capable shoulders of Fillion, a natural leading man., Hot Dog - Fantastic non-stop action adventure, Total Film - Seriously entertaining, Sight And Sound - Many of the film's pleasures are down to small-screen values... and the good-humoured playing of an experienced, non-starry ensemble cast, Daily Telegraph - Thrills, spills and eye popping explosions ...sheer, joyful entertainment

  • Serenity: a heart-wrenching but ultimately uplifting ending to the space western.

    I had just finished re-watching the space-western series Firefly on Disney+ and was looking to see the movie conclusion. Buying the DVD was a much more cost-effective option than paying for streaming it. In 2005, all the cast were still so young (and so hot!). Serenity expands and brings a new realism to the series and gives it a heart-wrenching but ultimately uplifting ending.

  • Arrived sealed with the disc and inserts still in the box. Yet to watch but the disc is immaculate so I imagine it will be fine.
