My Serenity review

 My Serenity review

Intro: Man! This series can’t catch a break.  

Serenity: This movie takes place sometime after the events of the series, and the crew of Serenity have gone their separate ways. They’re reunited when an assassin of the alliances is after them, and the crew learns a dark secret about them. So, they have to decide if they will continue running or will they stand their ground?  

This movie is a good addition to this series! The fact that this movie exists is a milestone, I mean, how often do canceled TV shows get a movie? This movie made this series look a lot better. It answers some of the unanswered questions about this series, like why is the alliances are after River, we get backstory on the reavers, we have a reason to despise the alliances, and two crew members finally get together. Freedom vs control is still a theme in this movie; however, the movie handles it in a way that’s not black and white. There is also an underlying theme of faith. What the Alliances did made them look like they have a GOD complex. The movie proved high stakes for our characters. I can’t elaborate on that without spoiling the movie. I have nothing new to say about the characters because the movie hasn’t done anything thing new with them. I like the Operative (The Assassin) because he knows what he's doing is wrong, but he believes it’s for the greater good.   

The problem I have with this movie is that it doesn’t give us all the answers we are looking for in this series. I don’t like what happened to one of the characters. I’m going to leave it at that. I notice some editing issues. Overall, this is one of the rare movies that is just as good as the series itself, and fans will not be disappointed with this movie.  

Rating = Worth Seeing
