If you squint just right, you can see the deeper themes that Knight is toying with – questions of free will, and of the consolations of fiction – but never does he hit the intellectual or emotional pressure points that would make the whole ordeal worthwhile. As somber as it is unintentionally silly, "Serenity" doesn't have a prayer.

They're both highly regarded professional actors; they wouldn't make a bad movie would that? I was wrong. Hathaway in particular doesn't exactly excel in this role either. Macaunghay is fine, a little melodramatic. And then the movie… this movie fucking sucks, Daddy. good acting interesting plot twist shitty script What was this movie actually about?

I can handle the truth. The kid programmed a patch into a fishing game where he can make his parents have rough sweaty sex on a boat >>>>>>>>> This movie gets five stars lmao fuck it. exclusively for people that watched The Truman Show and were like "man, i wish there were more matthew mcconaughey drunkenly yelling about tuna and iraq and sucking on anne hathaway's chin"... luckily that's me.
Like, it could have gone anywhere, and you went with this? Still, the first half is textbook 90's thriller histrionics, and McC is in mega mode. Recent reviews This review may contain spoilers. now why did the kid program his dad to be so horny It doesn't even make the Top 50 list of crazy-stupidest things in this batshit turd casserole, but whenever Diane Lane looks out of her horizontal wooden blinds, she tilts the one that's two or three slats below the crack she's actually looking out of. Liked this movie a lot when I originally watched it, but on rewatch I love it! I am ok being in the minority on this one. Wait..... this isn't Firefly the actual fuck i cannot fully express the way this movie completely twisted on its head in the WORST WHAT WAS THIS SHIT Today I "watched" Serenity. My life has ended and begun again. Nothing will be the same. I never knew how deep filmmaking could be. The shark is called Justice and there is a character named The Rules. THE SHARK IS CALLED JUSTICE.
a few screams and line deliveries in here that would make nic cage proud ("GIMME THE ROD! ") scattered throughout this very pro-rum, pro-butt, pro-murder, hoot-and-holler cinema gem. as pure a piece of nonsense screenwriting as one could hope for in their life. loved it.?? Lmaooooooooooooo. To be fair, I definitely liked this, as it is incredibly watchable and baffling from the first scene to the last, but I'm still trying to figure out exactly why. It really has no reason to exist, but each and every decision, whether by narrative or character or visual, feels so particular and pored over. It's equal to someone playing darts in a dive-bar, and they miss the board *every fucking time*, and not only does it *not* hit the board, but each dart flies in a different direction so gracefully and forcefully that it must've been on purpose, right? Well, it wasn't. No way. Nohow. But it's that dedication and unaware innocence towards the exorbitant stupidity of Serenity that creates a new good-bad classic, one which features (among many wonderful, wonderful things) a man named The Rules and Diane Lane as a sexy, senile cat lady.
