Review
The
world presented is comprehensive and detailed, making Joss Wheadon's
feature film debut a weighty and rich portrait at the intersection of
fantasy and science fiction (although the film is in spirit more related
to the former). Stylistically and thematically, Serenity is
ambitious but only moderately inventive; we're given well-choreographed
action and adventure in a world where The
Matrix meets the western genre and embarks on an
intergalactic road-trip. Enjoyable at its best, but Wheadon can't refrain
from being only slightly less pulpy and unscrupulously geeky than he was
in his previous TV-series.
