Serenity

I went and saw Serenity yesterday morning with Daniel and his Mum at the movies. I'm a big fan of the TV series Firefly which is what its based on, and I have to say that the movie wasn't better then the series and it definetly wasn't worse either - so about on a par to the series. Which of course means that it was absolutely excellent.

A lot of the movies i see can get boring in parts, so you kind of notice how long the movies been going for and how much longer its got left to go. This was not one of those movies. I'm not sure if the movie would be as good for people who have never seen the series before. But because i've seen the series i have to say that it adds something more to it, cause you already know the characters and their backgrounds so parts of the movie mean a lot more.

Oh don't read this next part if you intend on seeing the movie - cause it will ruin it for you. *Spoilers*

There were a few surprises in the movie, like when they killed off Shepherd Book and of course when Wash got killed by the Reavers - Didn't see that one coming. The Reavers in it were pretty cool - not the scariest things ever - they actually kind of reminded me of the zombies in "Dawn Of The Dead (2004)". Only more intelligent.

hopefully there will be a sequel movie or a new TV series. That'd be pretty sweet :)
