Why so many people like serenity? I watched & it felt like a tv movie. Unless I watched something else. It's the joss whedon one about a few people in a space ship right? Very normal sci-fi show leh, almost dull.

It is in a unique genre of SciFi Western. To me it's an interesting take on modern sci-fi and I liked the TV series, but it's not everybody's cup of tea.

Another movie I just saw and liked: Another Earth.

I watched 1 episode of Firefly. Keep expecting Leonard Nimoy to turn any second now. Gave up, stopped.

If anyone wants to watch a classic horror film, try "Omen (1976)"

This is how a horror movie should be : minimal gore and blood but scary and suspense like hell.

Of course, it belongs to a trilogy of Omen 1, Omen 2 & Omen 3

I just watched Revolver. Surprised that I missed this Guy Ritchie movie.

Questions
1. Continuity. Didn't his brother died in the first few minutes sending him home?
2. Why did Mr Macha kill himself?
