The feature film The X-Files: I Want to Believe is a satisfying if unspectacular installment in the X-Files series, taking place an unspecified time after the show's nine-year television run. Former agent Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) is now a doctor, while Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) is being hunted by his former agency and living in seclusion. He and Scully are summoned back by a case involving a missing agent and a former priest (Billy Connolly) who claims to be able to see clues to the agent's whereabouts psychically, though his initial search turns up only a severed limb. Don't expect the usual cast of characters; the FBI has completely turned over (except for the George W. Bush portrait), and the only reason Scully and Mulder are back is because agent Dakota Whitney (Amanda Peet) remembers his success on similar cases involving the unexplainable. Don't expect the same rogues' gallery either; unlike the previous X-Files feature film, which was inextricably linked to the series' convoluted mythology arc (and served as a bridge between the fifth and sixth seasons), I Want to Believe is a stand-alone piece that makes use of the series' roots in horror/sci-fi and moody Vancouver, B.C., locales. Also unlike the previous film, which was almost self-consciously shot for the big screen, this film is on a smaller scale, like a double-length episode of the series. But it's still a good reminder of the creepy vibe that hooked fans for years. And the relationship between Mulder and Scully? It seems to have resumed pretty much where it left off, at least when you take into account the long period of separation. But stick around for the end-credit sequence to take in all the possibilities for the future. --David Horiuchi

1 out of 5 stars bad x   January 10, 2009
I am a big X-Files fan but I feel like my time and money was wasted. The story was not a X-file story or anything thing like one. The must have made it just for the money.


1 out of 5 stars no wheres near the original.   January 9, 2009
This was so way off the mark. I am so disappointed, the plot, the acting, all of it just didn't take off. It didn't have the magic I grew to love in the TV series.


5 out of 5 stars X Files   January 8, 2009
Well, we all waited for the final movie, and this one was good. Liked the story line, thank goodness no more aliens! It put a nice ending on the X File saga.


5 out of 5 stars X-File Fan   January 8, 2009
I waited and waited for this movie to come out so I could have my own copy.


1 out of 5 stars I Wanted To Believe   January 8, 2009
This movie is a pile of crap. Too Dark. Too Dingy. The tension between Mulder and Scully too intense and far far far too late in the game. Carter and Spotnitz did not do justice to the legacy and now they may have buried their heads beneath the icy indifference of a Hollywood serial killer known as "The Box Office Return". Pity, I really did want to believe....again. Technically excellent picture and sound.
