I will always respect and appreciate the will of a director/writer in trying to do something bold and bonkers. Whether that’s a divisive plot twist, a double-faced character or even an unusual method of filming, it doesn’t really matter, as long as it succeeds. Steven Knight delivers a story that doesn’t feel right from the get-go. Everything feels strange and random, with weird dialogues and awkward hints at something underneath it all. Then, a somewhat predictable plot twist changes pretty much everything since our pers... read the rest.

This is insane, which is why I really like it. It's original, it had my attention throughout the entire runtime, and I can't remember the last time I got this many chills--maybe never! I'll admit it fails to ever become cohesive but it's got so much fucking flavour that I can't not gulp it down. What would one call this? Artsy schlock? This is artsy schlock. This is my initial rating upon a first watch; it is possible I will feel differently about the film on a second watch.

If you never heard of Serenity before, you’re not alone because neither had I. The movie was in and out of theaters making a mere $11.4 million off of a reasonable $25 million budget. But one of the best perks of reviewing is getting to see films I might’ve otherwise skipped and boy was Serenity one hell of a ride.

One of the weirder films I've seen recently. And I like weird, I just don't like... This. Credit where credit's due though, both Anne Hathaway and Jason Clarke are one hundred percent believable in their roles, which is impressive given the setting, and... Terrifying, given their relationship dynamic.

Final rating:★½: - Boring/disappointing. Avoid where possible.

Good watch, could watch again, and can recommend.

This is probably more interesting than good when it comes down to it.

I'm not a big fan of Matthew McConaughey or Jason Clarke, but they sure nail all the crazy in their roles.

Djimon Hounsou probably has the only character that isn't crazy to some degree. The "Moby Dick" reference is strong, but the story structure allows for theming to evolve as the story continues.

Each arc is interesting as if it is a new story using the same characters.

While the journey definitely carries some intensity with it, the end is a bit vague and m... read the rest.
