I assembled some positive review quotes for a quick spoiler free read. You can also copy/paste send them to friends for some marketing.

LA Times: "A strongly acted, well-written story
fortified by riveting action sequences — a rarity
these days among studio releases — "Serenity" should
delight Whedon novices as much as the already
converted."

NY Times: "It probably isn't fair to Joss Whedon's
"Serenity" to say that this unassuming science-fiction
adventure is superior in almost every respect to
George Lucas's aggressively more ambitious "Star Wars:
Episode III - Revenge of the Sith." But who cares
about fair when there is fun to be had? Scene for
scene, "Serenity" is more engaging and certainly
better written and acted than any of Mr. Lucas's
recent screen entertainments."

Atlanta Constitution: "But the [movie] is surprisingly
entertaining, with a sly tone that mixes action and
humor and even manages to beam a message about
morality and hypocrisy." Grade B

Chicago Tribune: "And oh, what a movie it is.
"Serenity" is a brash, funny, action-packed bit of
sci-fi ecstasy—and a giant raspberry to the execs who
let "Firefly" fall out of the sky." Grade A-

E! Online: "It's faithful to the die-hards and still
deserves a larger audience. And most of all, it's a
popcorn film that dares to be about faith and
consequences (in more than a half-assed way). Grant
yourself the wisdom to see it." Grade A-

I love these! Thanks for posting them! I saw a great review on my local TV station this morning and copied it down. I actually already posted it on another thread, but it's so shiny I don't mind posting it twice!

"You don't have to know the series to enjoy Serenity. This is just good old fashioned space opera. It's really exciting. It's witty and funny; it's character driven; it has substance and even a few surprises. Now if you already know and like these characters it does make it even better. Anyone who likes sci-fi will dig it, but fans will be doing backflips. It's that good! You can consider me a new member of that club. Three and a half stars."
