I found it bizarre that there was Chinese writing all over everything, but there were no Asians anywhere in the movie... Maybe the odd one in a big crowd, but that was it.
I can't remember why it is (without loading up my DVD of Firefly) but Joss explained why he wanted some "bastardized" version of Chinese as some sort of "throwback" language the characters used when upset or frustrated. It seemed to make sense (but I forgot what it was).

As to acting, I think Nathan did a good job. Everyone else seemed adequate except for Summer's performace which I found to be in-character quite well.

Even seeing it the second time at the theatre (to help with weekend sales), I found myself on the edge of my seat quite a bit (though I knew what was going to happen).
