Review of Serenity (2019)

By Stephen Rebello (292) for Playboy Online (295) on 25 Jan 2019

Everyone in front of and behind the camera has done such good work in the past that maybe we should consider Serenity a bold but wacky misstep…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Miles Surrey (15) for The Ringer (285) on 25 Jan 2019

Well, having finally seen Serenity, let me just say: REOPEN ALCATRAZ AND GIVE STEVEN KNIGHT A LIFETIME SENTENCE…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Alison Gillmor (124) for Winnipeg Free Press (342) on 25 Jan 2019

There's a reason why Serenity feels, well, like a bad movie…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Annlee Ellingson (847) for L.A. Biz (397) on 25 Jan 2019

Serenity is not what moviegoers will feel watching the truly bonkers, yet boring thriller starring Matthew McConaughey…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 25 Jan 2019

Though its big ideas don't work, Serenity's narrative miscalculations result in some pretty entertaining - if completely unintentional - comedy…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Katie Walsh (1,279) for Los Angeles Times (12,977) on 25 Jan 2019

The off-kilter, colorful, cartoonish fantasy of Serenity is just so odd and appealing that you want to spend time with the characters, aboard…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Allison Shoemaker (83) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 25 Jan 2019

Serenity is often stylish. It is never, ever dull. It is also deeply stupid…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Anne Brodie (132) for What She Said (131) on 25 Jan 2019

As per any McConaughey outing there's plenty of his naked rear end and rippling muscles but even so, he shows real depth and vulnerability…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Jeffrey M. Anderson (3,573) for Common Sense Media (4,943) on 25 Jan 2019

Starting out promisingly, like a glossy, heated, modern-day film noir tribute, this thriller eventually begins to reveal its twist, and everything…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Kristen Lopez (178) for Culturess (85) on 25 Jan 2019

There's absolutely nothing like Serenity out there. It's so insane, weird, dumb, and funny that you'll be enthralled…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Roger Moore (6,008) for Movie Nation (3,875) on 25 Jan 2019

The setting, the sexy tone, the cast and snippets of sharp dialogue tamped down my eye rolling through the film’s first half…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By David Edelstein (2,124) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 24 Jan 2019

Serenity isn’t just meant to surprise you — which it will — but to give you an emotional wallop — which it may or may not…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Moira Macdonald (1,892) for The Seattle Times (964) on 24 Jan 2019

Let’s just say that things aren’t always what they seem, and that there is not enough popcorn in the world to make this particular twist go down…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Adam Graham (720) for Detroit News (2,682) on 24 Jan 2019

A lot of things have to go wrong for a film to misfire the way Serenity does, and all of them happen here…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Joe Gross (195) for Austin American-Statesman (501) on 24 Jan 2019

The more one thinks about it, the more one can see a cast with this kind of talent reading the script and thinking, Okay, that's kind of cool…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Andrew Barker (315) for Variety (12,700) on 24 Jan 2019

Serenity sees a usually reliable screenwriter-turned-director take a bold swing and miss the mark completely, so intent on pulling the rug…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Nate Adams (71) for The Only Critic (71) on 24 Jan 2019

Obnoxious and painfully dull, Serenity is an early candidate for worst film of 2019…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Steve Katz (19) for Bullz-Eye.com (1,091) on 24 Jan 2019

The insanity of where Serenity goes really must be seen to be believed…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 24 Jan 2019

Serenity is not just awful. It’s amazingly awful, which means that very few people will want to see it, but some probably will…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Randy Cordova (352) for Arizona Republic (3,909) on 24 Jan 2019
