I finally got around to Firefly after years of having it recommended to me. It was quite ballza. I was expecting an ongoing serial kind of thing, and was at first a little disappointed by the stand-alone episodic nature of it but once I got over that, it's a really fun show.
I'm not much of a Joss Whedon fan but I really liked everything on offer here. A lot of the fight scenes had an early-2000s corniness to the choreography but I'm cool with that. I liked the nice balance of intrigue, adventure, camp, and occasional dry humor. The lack of resolution to the hanging plot & character threads at the end of the season doesn't bother me, I enjoyed it for what it was. I'm sure knowing ahead of time there wasn't going to be much (or any, really) in the way of answers by the last episode probably helped quite a bit.
The girl who plays the mechanic is a supercutiepie.
In a way, it satiated my thirst for more Cowboy Bebop, though it is neither as dark nor as gripping as CB. Made for nice light watching though. I'll let you know what I think of the movie after I've seen it.
Overall, highly recommended and enjoyed. I'll probably watch it again at some point if I'm really sick for a few days or if I get snowed in or whatever.
