Synopsis

The crew of Serenity will take any job, even if that job isn’t exactly legal. Captain Malcolm Reynolds and his crew take small smuggling and robbery jobs to keep their ship afloat, and to stay under the radar of The Alliance, the galactic conglomerate that not only rules the galaxy, but was on the opposite side of the war Mal lost years ago. But when a Simon and his unstable, telepathic sister, River join the crew, they get in much more trouble than they bargained for. A mysterious man is after River, because she stumbled onto a secret no one was supposed to know… and the alliance will do anything to get her back. –IMDb

The most entertaining and full of heart space-opera of 21st century, and the crazy part is it would have never happened if everything had gone the way Whedon originally planned.

3 1/2 out of 5 stars. Not as warm as Firefly was but Serenity has everything Firefly had, it just changed wardrobes a bit. If Firefly was high school, Serenity is college in another state. Its nice to get the closure the show never got the chance to offer, not to mention the possibility of something else in the future.
