SERENITY (2005) - Dec. 10, 2005 (Second Viewing)
As I suspected, this movie works a *lot* better having seen all of the episodes of the show. It doesn't matter that the film doesn't really develop any of the characters, as they've all been fully fleshed out on the show. As well, there's a lot of things which seem insignificant but actually aren't, if you've seen the series. The performances are all really good, and the whole film just seemed a lot more exciting and fast-paced this time around. I still think it would have been just as good without killing off all those characters (Wash's death seemed particularly pointless) but aside from that it was really good. ***1/2
