Pure entertainment; kudos to Joss Whedon for having the courage of his convictions to stand by his vision against all odds, when hapless studio hacks fiddled with his sci-fi series ‘Firefly’ (showing it in the wrong order and changing the time slots) Whedon rallied his hard done by cast, re-wrote, re-titled and re-released this ‘Star Wars’-esque sci-fi adventure (or space opera to use a Lucas term, much to the delight of moviegoers worldwide.
‘Serenity’ didn’t exactly set the box office alight, but it made more than enough (in praise as well as pounds) to warrant an inevitable sequel. Watching this reminded me of the first time I saw ‘Pitch Black’ not knowing quite what to expect, and loving every second of what I saw. ‘Buffy’ was over-hyped, never got a chance to see ‘Firefly’ but I always liked ‘Alien: Resurrection’ (penned by Joss) and can’t wait to see more of River Tam, Captain Reynolds and the rest of these wonderful, engaging characters, lets hope the sequels no ‘Matrix Reloaded’. review by Kashif Ahmed
