Serenity,” the film continuation to the short-lived TV series “Firefly,” is the perfect remedy to help soothe bitter fans’ resentment against Fox cancelling the cult show. The creative mind of Joss Whedon (of “Buffy” fame) brings the beautifully crafted and acclaimed futuristic series to the screen with some of the wittiest and quirkiest rebels to ever control a spacecraft.
The one-disc DVD contains the usual bonuses — outtakes, deleted scenes and commentary from writer/director Whedon. But it also offers several interesting featurettes, including a couple behind-the-scenes vignettes of “Firefly,” a Whedon introduction and the intriguing documentary “Future History: The Story of Earth That Was.” The complete season of “Firefly” DVD is also an excellent companion piece and necessary addition to any sci-fi collection.
