Simply fucking ROCKED. Well written, beautifully envisioned, and executed perfectly. But I have one little rant that isn't really a spoiler.
The series and film claims this all takes place in a single solar system with "dozens of planets and moons that were terraformed." (Or more accurately, Southern California-formed.)
This is freaking impossible with a single star. It's have to be a freaking bright supergiant to have a life zone large enough. So I, being an absolute geek, have come up with a solution.
Serenity Actually takes place in a trinary system. The central star is a fairly bright giant (call it a F5 III) with three gas giants in its life zone. These GG have multiple large moons. The second star is a G0 V orbiting at 80+ AU, with two worlds in its life zone, plus one right outside the edge (but still close enough to be somewhere above utterly frozen. The last star is a G8 V with a few piddling worlds and moons that were terraformed, but not overly well. This is the "outer system" mentioned in the canon, since a distant trianry could be well over 300 AU away.
Other than that, not a single complaint about the film.
