Shares plot similarities with The Fifth Element? Erm, there was a woman in it? Mal is just like that clown Bruce Willis played? That's a bit like saying Oliver Twist and Paper Moon share plot similarities because both central figure kids lost their mothers and there's a lot of crime involved. Did this person see either movie? It doesn't help when the professional critics don't pay attention.

I do have to agree though that the ads and the movie itself were aimed at heavily at people familar with Firefly. For instance, if you hadn't seen the series, what the heck would you make of all the dinosaur toys around the right control panel when they lift off at the end?

I hope the movie succeeds in what it seems Joss was aiming for: to sell more Firefly DVD's which in turn will sell more Serenity DVD's when it comes out and to keep the franchise alive.
