Serenity (2005)
loved it loved it loved it
The only thing I wish Joss Whedon had done differently is the ending. It seems so final :( I, like many of the Firefly fans out there, was really hoping that the film would hook a new batch of people to create the pressure needed to get the show back. Sort of, "hey, great flick Joss, we think there could be a show deal in this - whaddya think?" but all the ends are neatly tied off & it seems there's nowhere else to go. Still, I'll be going to see it again tomorrow & will snap it off the shelf on release day when it comes out on DVD. Many family members will be receiving it as a gift from me as well. I was so caught up in the action I would occasionally hear the people in the row behind me snickering as I cowered down in my seat with my shoulders so tense they were up over my ears, or I clapped & uttered a "yeah!" when things went spectacularly well. I love this universe and wish there was more of it to see. Highly recommended!

all the ladies fall for constable Fraser...
including me... Smart, handsome, considerate, strong, athletic... the list of qualifications for man of the year just never ends. I loved this show; it is the only series I ever planned my nights around. I was thoroughly devoted, and followed reruns from channel to channel just to try and get it all on tape. I think it dreadfully unfair that it was released on video in the UK and not here; maybe they thought the Americanisms would be tough for Americans to take but I found the show constantly likable & want it back! The occasional guest star slots for Leslie Neilsen were absolutely fabulous - think "The Naked Gun" in an RCMP uniform. The shows with Carrie Anne Moss were great too, perhaps the best character I've seen her as to date. The music was always wonderful, the stunts incredible, the wolf adorable, the women frustrated and charmed, the good guys believable and the bad guys deserving of their fate. If you find this in your TV listings and are one of the uninitiated, make a point of seeing it. You won't be disappointed.
