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

 no wheres near the original. January 9, 2009
D. Washington (hagerstown,md)
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.

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.

Caryn Fuerte (Richmond, VA USA)
This movie sucked as in the actual movie story line!!! But the movie got here quick and fast and was in perfect condition just like i bought it in a store!!!
Big Disappointment January 7, 2009
Jeff Stiegler (Paso Robles, CA United States)
Being a avid X-Files fan, I was looking forward to this movie. The movie turned out to be a big disappointment and much of the movie was spend on endless number of arguments between Mulder and Scully. No space aliens. No great mystery. No suspense.
The movie also took a cheap shot at President Bush. This was tasteless at best. Since I only watched the extended version I do not know if the theatric version contained the same scene.
