I never heard of the Firefly series, and the first time I watched it was this movie which came a few years after the series ended. The series was highly unknown and only ran 1 season. False advertising and a bad TV spot are the reasons why it was short lived. The show.. is awesome.. even better than this movie in my opinion. A great mix of the old West with outer space and some Asian words mixed in. It's a great series and if you ever have the chance watch the Firefly series before you see this movie. This Serenity movie takes place chronologically after the series. The last few episodes seem to be out of order, and they were from what I read. So far I feel the series chronological order is 1. Serenity (season episode not the movie), 2. The Train Job, 3. Bushwhacked, 4. Shindig, 5. Safe, 6. Our Mrs. Reynolds, 7. Jaynestown, 8. Out of Gas, 9. Ariel, 10. Heart of Gold, 11. Objects in Space, 12. War Stories, 13. Trash, and finally 14. The Message. I just put them in that order today since it made the most sense as to what happened in previous episodes compared to what happened in later episodes. If you watch them in that order things will make sense. Then this movie last. This series/movie is just very original, and there are no words for it but to watch them all and see for yourself. I give the series a 12 out of 10 and this movie a 10+. The Firefly theme song is awesome too, and I always love hearing it. If nothing else give this movie a watch. It's very interesting and original to say the least and glad I found it on Netflix several years ago and found the series later. What a wonderful watch. Maybe someday these creators or someone else will come along to make a similar show. 200 thumbs up!!
