In my opinion, no. But I really think the best way to enjoy the film is to see the series first. The movie just accentuates what was already going on in the show.

I loved the series - not so much the movie. I was very dissapointed that it didn't have the same western charm as the show did. Too many hovercrafts and spaceships and sci fi gizmo. There was this awesome moment early in the series when they land the ship, open the cargo doors and run out on horseback - that's the kind of inventive setting that made the series so entertaining. |
Yeah, there was the whole aspect of trying to keep fans of the show happy, but at the same time you have to realize that the film is reaching a much broader audience...an audience that didn't watch Firefly.
Therefore a lot of backstory and "catching-up" had to be done in the first part of the movie. You have to make sure everyone knows whats going on.
