I was lucky enough to be able to
attend a midnight showing on release day, which was attended by what
had to be dedicated fans. The excitement level was high, and
the anticipation of what was to come was enormous.
The movie hit the screen and we found
ourselves entranced. The cast was wonderful, the effects were
great, the story was fun (just what was River's back story,
anyway?), and we completely lost track of time while we devoured the
visual feast set before us.
In all fairness, I would suggest that
emotionally sensitive youngsters watch this movie only with parental
supervision. There are some very intense and disturbing scenes
that might upset them.
The movie brought forth all sorts of
emotions, from wonder to joy to anger to sorrow...just the right
sort of movie, at least as far as I am concerned. It's great
for newcomers to the Firefly universe, as well as the hardcore fan.
I've already started looking for the DVD set for my collection.
I see there are comics available, and a pending novel...I think I'm
going to have some new reading material, as well...
Take a chance...go see Serenity.
