I thought it was pretty good... Some great special effects (the space fleet battle was really nice), but the rest seemed rather moderate quality. Good Character development with the captain and some primary crew (and the girl), but others were practically written out. I guess it is hard to compete with the gold standards of Star Wars / Star Trek, or dare I say Battlestar Galactica (the TV series)...

This series pioneered a lot of what you now see in BSG and even in the last Star Wars movie. The movie was a lot darker than the series and given the fact that it was dramatically cut down for $$ and time sake, I think they pulled it off brillantly.

By far its one of the best Sci-Fi movies I have seen in a good long time not counting ROTS.

I would give it a 7 out of 10.

I'll probably go see it sometime soon. I don't know anything about Firefly but it sounds like everybody who watched it liked that show.

Didn't the way they ended it seem to you that the producers were not intending any future for a continued TV presence? It seemed to me that the ending was done in such a way that it said "OK fans, now just sut up about another TV series."
