Do they give out awards for casting, because the casting in this flick is BANANAS good! Dig how the villain lives by this warriors code, and when we cut back he's just calmy watching Sarah Paulson basically sacrifice herself to send out the message (not that she would have survived anyway, but at least she had the decency to try to warn others). I think in that moment he respected her greatly w/r/t how her life ended. Great to see his eyes well up.
I dont think Ive ever seen a sci-fi movie where I was so freakin afraid that one of the characters might die. Firefly/Serenity makes you care so much for its characters
The whole series makes it clear, mal and zoe are not average soldiers. They survived the most horrific battle of the war. They are the equivalent of the Japanese survivors of iwo jima. Outnumbered 5 to 1, outgunned and still managed to kill 25% of the attackers. The battle of serenity valley was supposed to be the 'verses gettysburg but the outcome was more like iwo jima.
I feel bad for the operative... he gave up his feelings, honor, dignity, ... , his very soul for an ideal... and it turned to be as ugly as him. In the end becoming a monster to create thst perfect place was a waste.
He was reborn. In the end, he did NOT become a monster. Did you miss the ending? He said "It's over, it's all over. He got his soul back and had an epiphany. It was his 'road to Demascas'.
CaptainZ he is kind of a young version of the Shepherd. I’ve read the background of Shepherd book, but I can totally see a different version of him in the operativ
@@delcatroque2463 He is finished, there is no coming back from that, he is just wating for someone to kill him, he doesn't anything else to give. He knew that everything he did was extremely evil, there is no absolution for sins like these, no matter what the christian believe in repentance says. As Stannis Baratheon says ""A good act does not wash out the bad, nor a bad the good"" the operative understand this.
Mal quotes Neo: "I'm going to show these people what you don't want them to see. I'm going to show them a world without you, a world without rules and controls without borders or boundaries, a world where anything is possible. Where we go from there is a choice l leave to you."
River has stopped .... because she ran out of targets .... Could she take the imperial soldiers ..... they will never find out ..... aren't they lucky ...
I read one theory that it was an automated process triggered by Mal coming up through the elevator; the timing for when it opens could be just enough for someone to walk from one end of that corridor to the other, but Mal stopped to talk to the crew instead
The most underrated scifi film/series...EVER! It holds up against Wars and Trek, even with its short run. So good...
How do you clean out a room full of Reavers? You run a River through it.
Fuck yeah you do!!!
The way she tore up EVERYONE was pretty awesome..

They are all excellent but Summer Glau is outstanding.

many years later the film gets to me still.
Also one of the best fight scenes. The common soldier beating the brakes off the specially trained agent

Great movie, great scene. a man who fights a losing war...

It they ever did another movie he could be the next "Shepard Book"... Used to work for the Alliance, but no longer.

he still has the same believing at the end, he's just not gonna work anymore with the alliance to make it come true

Shame this show was canceled
I love this part of the movie too. But I was weirdly impressed with the platform, moving the slightest bit, when the captain walked across it.
Treebeard: Unleash the RIIIIVAH! boy did they. I'm not locked in here you you, you are locked in here with ME!
man that elbow to the throat must have hurt

Let the river flow
2:08 Beginning of one of the best parts of the whole movie. You're welcome.
Some people just don't get what went down. Then they turn twelve.
Mal: Report! River?
Zoe: *sad expression* It's terrible...for the Reavers! She annihilates them right behind that door.
That screwdriver to the foot is proof that spinning is, in fact, NOT a good trick...
excellent example of manipulative governments...
better than starwars
WONDER MAN v MORDO. Make it happen.
I didn't know it was possible to upload ultrawide at 240p
Here is my question; Who opened the door for River?
Frankjc3rd
In the movie the
Door wouldn't properly
It was in the script. So.....the writers opened it.
She opened it then got back into pose position to look cool
She is physic
