As an avid Sci-Fi fan I was thoroughly looking forward to this. Space Sweepers doesn't disappoint - The special effects were impressive, the characters were interesting and worth investing in. All the elements are there and the only downside is the plot holes but I can forgive this as it is bloody hard to do a great Sci-Fi from scratch in 2 hours which is why most standalone Sci-Fi films never rate too highly as they have to sacrifice backstory. This movie had all the Serenity vibes going on but don't forget even Serenity had the luxury of a TV series behind it. I actually think Space Sweepers is better suited to a TV series giving the creators an opportunity to plug those plot holes and really flesh out the world they introduced us to. If we are lucky it will be like Battlestar where they are testing the waters before committing to a series - then again that may just be my wishful thinking!
