Show ffOUMUEVI 4 Sefitevn&e'i ft r 2$, 2005 4 ) a WateBu WBiiedleinis SeireIraSiiy, New 'space Western' sure to please Anybody out there remember that show Firefly? It was on Fox for a season back in 2002. Anybody? Well, to be honest I never saw an episode until a few months ago, and Ive only seen about four or five since then. I neednt have seen anyr episodes to thoroughly enjoy Serenity, the excellent Sci-f- i movie based on Joss Whedons (creator of Buff the Vampire Slayer and Angel) failed space western series. Serenity can stand on its own and provided enough background information to appeal to those who never saw Firefly. The movie follows the were perfect for a film setting. Although a fewr of the exploits of the cargo ship Serenitys crew, a ragtag bunch of space adventures who will take any job as long as it pays. Led by Captain Mai Reynolds (Nathan Fillion). The crew gets into trouble when they take aboard a fugitive doctor and his deranged sister. The oppressive government known as the Alliance, who had been experimenting on the girl, send an assassin (Chiwetel Ejiofor) to make sure that her secrets remain hidden. I was drawn in by the story and the characters, while they may be stuck in roles best subplots might only be understood by fans of the show; they were not essential to enjoying or understanding the plot. The film had some excellent comic moments, but retained a very dark edge, what with the desecration of corpses and the torturing of se-roi- us young girls. With gunfights, spaceships, political infrigue, battle axes, and een a little romance, this movie might just have it all. Even if you are not a total geek or a passive Sci-f- i fan, check out Serenity as a smart and exciting action movie, well worth the price of admission. suited for a TV series, felt well developed and their conflicts nmeMs air Home-styl- e food fits eDBMDatts students' budget Students in the mood for authentic diner style food will find Demetris Cafe the place to go.

As Kyle becomes more panicked, her paranoia threatens the flights safety. Many questions are raised during the film: How could someone just disappear in mid-air- ? Who would have a motive for kidnapping Pratts daughter? Is Pratt really just all the right questions, relentlessly trying to convince the crew shes not crazy. Foster delivers a powerhouse performance that keeps the audience guessing. Shes very moving to watch, quite mesmerizing, said Bean (Lord of the Rings Troy ) to Entertainment Weekly , Youre doing a scene and get caught up watching her. Fosters performance shows why shes been in Hollywood for 33 years, and theres no signs of her stopping anytime soon. Fosters cast mates do a particularly fine job as well, especially Sarsgaard (Garden State, Skeleton Key) who doesnt like flying at all in real life. Its interesting that I did a psychological thriller on an airplane because Im involved in a psychological thriller every time I fly, he said to Entertainment Weekly Flightplan has many similarities to 1997s Breakdown starring Kurt Russell, but has enough twists and turns to keep the audience guessing. While not an Oscar caliber film, Flightplan makes for good fare, particularly in the ordinarily drab fall movie season. |
