And even if some critics did not appreciate Serenity - it seems to me that it brings a fresh breeze to the current over-aggressive landscape of the thriller genre and delivers a good, well-played and cinematic scenario - just as it is when it comes to dealing with professionals of this level. So I advise you to leave the judgments of others away and trust your personal ones - only possible after you have seen the movie, which - personally - I strongly recommend you.

Perhaps Steven Knight's movie could be decoded better at a second view. The exotic landscape (filmed in Mauritius!), the extreme ambition of a man to hunt a tuna fish, the strange signs that appear to him distracts you from some seemingly innocent details, but meaningful in the logical thread of what wants to show us "Serenity".

And yet, despite the mix of genres, the story also has something in it that keeps you close, even if the solutions are not always up to expectations.

Serenity is a special drama in which it sneaks a small dose of mystery. The story seems simple at first glance. However, the mystery, introduced in an original manner, along with a little thriller, brings a lively breeze to the film. In addition, Serenity is not afraid of nudity and sensuality. Matthew McConaughey, in a great shape, alongside Anne Hathaway and Diane Lane, two attractive and exciting female presence, raises the temperature with a few degrees in the cinema hall.

Serenity is an enigmatic and SF thriller who keeps you guessing and you have no idea what conclusions to draw in the end. I do not know how much I understand it or not, but I dare to say it is a movie about control and personal choices, but especially about that one person that guides us in our game called "life".

We believe we have control and we have the power of decision, but is it so!? At least from this point of view, the film left me with a big question: is the free choice just an illusion? "People like to say they know everything. But if the truth is that nobody knows anything? "

Now the big question is no longer whether "will it do it or not?" But "what is true and what is not?" And that's where the storm begins, and the movie just starts playing with our mind! I have questioned everything, I tried to imagine all sorts of alternatives, but to the end no one knows the truth!
But I have to admit, I would have liked the scenario to put the story to the limit of real and unreal, the scenes that will keep the true story alter with those that take you to the other possibility, so that by the end of the movie we are all dizzy and do not know what to believe!

The film is a noir thriller with elements of science fiction. Although the film has been harshly criticized by the international press, in my opinion, Serenity is a good film that manages to keep the mystery to the end, the outcome being surprising. [...]
With Serenity, director Steven Knight tries to bring a story filled with mystery, tension, uncertainty and emotion on the big screens in a world where nothing is what it seems.
