Serenity (15) Whedon, who masterminded Buffy the Vampire Slayer, went on to make another TV series, Firefly, dumped after 11 episodes. Serenity continues the story, with spiffy effects and smart one-liners.

Ithas been claimed as an allegory of Putin's Russia, but its doom 'n' gloom scenario is so complicated and dark that it could really be about anything at all. Tough Watch.
