(3) Serenity

Directed by Joss Whedon
Rated PG-13
2005
119 minutes

**** 1/2

Taking the best elements of Star Wars and combining them with a classic Hollywood western, in my opinion, sounds like a possible disaster. However, Joss Whedon's Serenity (based on his brilliant-but-canceled 2002 Fox series Firefly) ends up being one of the best space adventures since the holy trilogy.
