X-Files: I want to believe

Post by fabyak »

Been ten years in the making and they managed to get the main original characters back for it, and to sum up the film in one word:


meh


There were a few good Mulder one liners and a couple of funny moments but all in all it was very disappointing. It would had made a good filler episode in one of the tv series to go in between ones that carried the main storyline but was of no real consequence in itself

I would give it maybe 5 of of 10
Spoiler:
Also, getting a Catholic hospital to agree to allow her to do stem cell treatment on someone? No way in hell would they go for that!

I enjoyed it as an xfiles double-ep type thing.

Not so great as a movie.

I must say I'm glad it was MOTW style, rather than a mytharc movie, as the xfiles was so far up its own arse by the end in that respect.

Oh, and billy connolly spoiled it a bit for me, I always liked that they usually got decent, but unknown actors who were often creepy enough to work nicely. Connolly didn't seem to manage that, wasn't too impressed.
