Title: The power of belief
Review: Have you ever started a fabulous book, engaging, well-written, and then have it disappear before you could finish reading it? The cancellation of Firefly, an incredible series, was one of the most frustrating and cruel decisions ever made by network. Fabulous acting, great stories, many questions unanswered – and then the rug pulled out before they were finished.But because the fans demanded it, eventually Whedon’s miracle arrived, and a movie was made. We could attribute this to the powers of love and belief, both explicit themes in the movie.A movie is not the same as a television series. A movie needs more scope, so instead of the ragtag group of individuals trying to scavenge a living and survive without being detected, which was part of the charm of the series, we get to watch them fighting, essentially, two armies. Devoted fans may also not need some of the exposition.Some little things that I love about both the series and the movie is the use of language. The dialogue is fantastic: witty, funny, sometimes very apt. Whedon, like Humpty-Dumpty, is a master of the words he uses, bending them to his will. There’s “shiny” and “companion” and “nethers”. And perhaps, my favorite, the use of the word “‘verse” to mean “universe” – but which of course also has the poetical meaning of the story.Not all the threads left hanging from the series are tied up, but many of them are. We learn a lot more about River. We resolve the relationship between Simon and Kaylee. Mal recovers his belief system. We have a more sensible explanation for Reavers. We don’t get the background on Inara or Shepherd Book, but at least with the latter he says he’s not going to give his life story.The movie starts and ends with discussions of love. We first learn the love that Simon has for his sister, recognized by, of all people, the movie’s main antagonist, the nameless operative. The nameless operative also understands the power of belief. The operative is therefore in a better position than Mal at the movie’s beginning. However, the operative is too committed to unquestioning belief and because of this he does things that he admits make him a monster. Mal, during the movie, also learns to believe again – but his commitment to this is based on a more thorough investigation. There’s a wonderful exchange, in which the nameless operative asks Mal if he is ready to die for his beliefs. Mal says, “Yes – but that ain’t exactly Plan A.”I do have some quibbles. Jewel Staite lost the 20 lbs that she gained for her original stint as Kaylee. Perhaps she’s more beautiful without the 20 lbs, but she no longer feels like Kaylee. And although I can imagine Kaylee and Simon getting together – they’re both good people – they really don’t feel like a good match. Also, there seems to be no resolution to Jayne’s story. He finally gets to be considered a genuine hero and perhaps that should have been acknowledged.Nevertheless a wonderful movie and a tribute to the faith of the fans and Firefly’s creators.

Title: outstanding film follows up on Firefly series
Review: This film is a continuation of the Firefly TV series, axed in its prime by TV network executives who just didn’t get it.For details about the series, search for the Firefly DVD set here on Amazon, and read the reviews (mine first, of course!) Buy them both, but watch the series first! You will enjoy it more that way.The story line is about a spaceship full of interesting characters squeaking past the law, trying to live free and do the right thing whenever possible. This film picks up a short time after the last TV episode, Objects in Space, and follows on very nicely with the story arc of the series.To go into the story very deeply would give away too much. Suffice it to say that many of the smaller story arcs from the series (avaliable on Amazon in a boxed set) are resolved, and the series put to rest with a finish that would have made a beautiful season ender. There is an opening for more movies/projects based on the same “verse,” (short for Universe, show slang for the extremely interesting world/society/galaxy Joss and company created for the series). This ‘verse consists of a blend of the old American West, Chinese culture (people speak Chinese and English interchangeably), old West technology and future space travel and related technology.One would think the blend would simply not work, but it does work, and it works unbelievably well. The characters draw you in instantly, and hold your attention through the entire series and movie, leaving you wanting more. I have watched Serenity (the movie – the first section of the DVD series set is also called Serentiy, but is different) so many time I have lost count (not as much as Howard Hughes watched Ice Station Zebra, rest assured, but lots). (Which reminds me – the recent movie about Hughes is also great.)In the movie you will see some things clarified, some things teasingly dangled in front of you and then buried (for future projects?), and at least two primary parts of the story arc resolved. It will make you laugh and cry, be happy and angry, leaving you feel very much a part of the lives of the characters. I won’t give you details about the story line because that would take too much of the fun away. Great surprises and twists in store!I haven’t been a Joss Whedon fan before, but I sure am now. I am going to go back and visit his previous series and see what I have been missing. I complain frequently that there is little or no good TV being made, but Joss proves me wrong. I just haven’t found enough of his work. I am also going to keep an eye out for the actors in other projects, as they are all great as well.Remember, I recommend you get this movie with the Firefly series and watch the series first. This movie really ought to be packaged together with the series, and I would love to see a boxed set with both, and some new featurettes. The extras included with the movie and the Firefly series are also interesting and leave you wanting more.

Title: Cult classic that lead to the Firefly TV series
Review: This is a favorite movie of mine, with a captivating storyline. When it came out, it was considered so good that they actually had a spinoff TV show based on it. I was thrilled to find it as a digital prime video.

Title: Sci fi action doesn’t get any better than this.
Review: Easily one of my top 10 favorite movies of all time. A well-earned and appropriate sendoff and tribute to Firefly and the crew of Serenity. Very well done. They did it right and they did it smart.

Title: Best villain since Darth Vader
Review: Chiwatel Ejiofor was outstanding, and the rest of the movie was very good. Characters are better than the actors, but it wasn’t a big deal for me. Good concept excellent villain.

Review: Es una de mis peliculas SciFi favoritas. Ya la tengo en DVD. Pero la he comprado en 4K para disfrutarla en mi home cinema (LG OLED 65″ y amplificador Onkyo 5+1)- La calidad de imagen es buena. No es tan espectacular como otras peliculas que tengo en 4K- Lo que si he disfrutado mucho es el sonido en el setup 5+1 se escucha de escandaloDebo advertir que siempre escucho la version inglesa, que suele tener el mejor sonido (Dolby True HD)Aunque ya he explicado que las escucho en ingles, me ha gustado que esta version incluye pista en castellano (mi version en DVD no la tenia)
