A rag-tag crew of space-smugglers becomes embroiled in a plot to capture one of its crew which expands into them going up against the whole of the multiplanetary alliance.

One of the best movies I've seen. It's concise, extraordinarily well-acted, looks great, and has a phenomenal story. I don't know that I'd recommend this for people who haven't seen Firefly - (2002 show), but for those who have seen and liked the series this film becomes mandatory viewing, though only after a long while after watching the series.

Nothing could possibly go wrong in an amusement park populated by robots.

A good-ish movie, which must have been spectacular at the time because of its original themes and spectacular presentation. It holds up very well over the few centuries since its release.

A renown robber is caught, but actually getting him to the law is complicated and dangerous.

The tone is definitely off from the original. I definitely wouldn't recommend this, especially even to fans of westerns.

A renown robber is caught, but actually getting him to the law is complicated and dangerous.

A good tone, and I think I would recommend this to fans of westerns, but I'm not one of them.

A broke pig farmer picks up the gun again when he falls for the lie that a bounty was placed to avenge a horribly disfigured and disabled whore.

It's a movie; meh.

I don't even know how to summarize this movie; it's story isn't compelling.. just some people who might have had an interesting backstory hanging out on a planet kinda trying to survive-ish.

7 gunmen, for approximately 2.5 reasons, fight on behalf of a town they don't actually care about.

Fair. I mean.. it's just fair. Why bother with a remake if it's not going to even attempt to be better? It's a knockoff of the 1960 version set in California United States. Recommended for fans of westerns, but only so you can say that you saw it..
