Atom User Reviews for Serenity
Hmmm. This movie was like watching paint dry, flimsy and lame concept/plot. Good, top notch actors doing weak acing. I hate to say this, I always try and usually do find the overall good in a most movies, but this one was just plain dumb. Very very thin. This would’ve been fine if it was an amazon or Netflix original. But for a studio release with big names? This movie gets a C-
Steamed hams are making me thirsty
Boring and stupid.
Good movie but not what I expected.....
We found the movie to be both interesting and towards the end you’re trying to figure out the twist. A lot of other reviews didn’t seem to like the twist but I give it create for being original. Some folks may need to think it all through when it’s said and done. But for all its originality I can’t really give it more than 3 stars. It doesn’t leave you on the edge of your seat but it’s ok. I do have to say the sex and nudity seem unnecessary—- especially after you realize the twist..
Movie was great if you like movies that make you think and also are what they seem.
not what i expected, not a return plot, good movie
The positive... it's beautifully shot. But that's about it. It's horribly overacted, the plot is a convoluted, nonsensical mess that WANTS to be clever but desperately fails. This is easily the worst movie I've seen in quite some time...
It started out really good but about halfway it started getting weird. After that I lost interest.
Pretty wild!!!
A little weird but not bad quite an interesting twist
Even with a star studded cast, the movie amounts to nothing more than a Frankenstein-like mashup of shutter island and ready player one.
I felt it could have been better and that there are HUGE continuity errors in the writing and plot. The resolution is also really poorly thought out.
this movie was possibly the worst movie i’ve ever seen
had me guessing throughout
It had the trappings of a good movie but I just couldn't deliver
Story contains a really different twist. Actors were true to their parts.
Serenity was a beautiful movie. More than a movie, an insight to the protagonist mind. It is bizarre, new, and mad. Too much for an individual to understand but let loose and have the waves push you to shore for it will all make sense in the end. It had some bad scenes but based on the ending, it's deliberate. Film for those who appreciate the art of film making.
had a great twist I wasn't expecting. really enjoyed the movie.
Left with a big “huh”
I really wanted to like this bc of the cast but the plot was really shallow. Some of the metaphors were interesting but fell flat when you were still trying to figure out the point of the movie. It’s still engaging enough to watch though
Can't stand this twist. Feel ripped off.
Dumb and stupid
My boy McConaughey deserves better.
im sure the blooper reel was better than the crappy movie, good thing the seats are comfy for a nap so it wasn't a complete waste .
Terrible film...with great actors. what a shame
TERRIBLE
Zero stars is far too generous for this slop!
horrible
Metacritic
Terrible and insane, and will surely end up being one of the worst films of 2019. But it’s also such a wildly ambitious roller coaster ride that it must be experienced, preferably with friends, to laugh together at its cheesy dialogue, over-the-top performances and multiple, major plot twists.
It’s one of those projects that initially seems hokey beyond repair but quickly evolves into something genuinely unique. Serenity may not make it onto many critics’ top-10 lists come the end of 2019. But it’s certain to be one of the more unforgettable viewing experiences of the year.
Serenity is a twist in search of a movie, a film noir in search of a purpose, and a great cast in search of better material.
