I thought this would be a fantastic min i series, decent cast, and John Rhys Meyers kinda looks the role.
Soooo disappointed.
I mean John Rhys Meyers, i know he won an award for it and all that, but he was not very good IMHO. It got to the point where my sister and I had to stop watching. The story was fine, and the ideas worked, but the main performance was just appalling, and the lip syncing was even worse.
No the door is definitely still open for a decent Elvis movie or min series.

This film is brilliant.
Whether this is your first introduction to the work of Joss Whedon, or you are and avid Buffy, Angel and/or Firefly fan, you will enjoy this.
From start to finish it is go go go. The character development is so spot on. So many concepts fit into one film. Being a firefly fan and knowing the background I was concerned about how easily this information was going to be passed to a new audience.
There were a few characters I wish were developed more. Largely because I knew them from Firefly. It didn't, however, detract fro the film in any way.
True drama, true comedy, true sci if, even a true western. So much can be said about this film.
If you can, just for the enjoyment of it, have a look at Firfly first but this is in no way essential.
All the actors deliver every part fantastically. Except maybe David Krumhotlz as Mr. Universe. I liked the concept but it wasn't delivered well.
Chiwetel Ejiofor was excellent as the Operative.
All the crew of Serenity were great. I think some people maybe disliked Summer Glau as River, but I thought she worked really well.
This is definitely one of the top five films to see this year.
Joss Whedon is a genius
