Editorial Reviews: Amazon.co.uk Review The feature film iThe X-Files: I Want to Believe/i is a satisfying if unspectacular installment in the iX-Files/i 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. p/pDon'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 inexplicable. Don't expect the same rogues' gallery either; unlike the previous iX-Files/i feature film, which was inextricably linked to the series' convoluted mythology arc (and served as a bridge between the fifth and sixth seasons), iI Want to Believe/i 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. i--David Horiuchi, Amazon.com/i

Benham (london, england) 4 out of 15 found this review helpful This film has had a few bad reviews and having now seen the film i can safely say it did not deserve them. most of the bad reviews have been saying that it is just a normal run of the mill cop film about a kidnaping it definatly isnt for a start it features a phycic preist and how is a plot to transfer the head of a dying man on to a healthy body of a kidnap victim run of the mill the film also ties up some lose ends left at the end of season 9 (mostly the fact that mulder is still on the run). So to sum up this film is amazing and if you enjoyed the t.v series you will enjoy the film. This is true x-files Amazing November 29, 2008 Laura Godfrey (UK) 1 out of 3 found this review helpful Its been a long wait but this film definatly makes it work it, the two disc editions comes with lots of great extras as well which is always good for fans! A must buy! October 8, 2008 GIBIT (United Kingdom) 2 out of 10 found this review helpful Forget any bad reviews! br / br /This film did exactly as it should have done with allowing us to see the lifes and relationship of TVs best SC-FI couple 6 years down the road from after the series ended. br / br /Mulder and Scully are back! The story of the film some say wasn't the type of things you would see in the series. Well think again because certain episodes did deal with psychics and neutral paranormal acts such as the episode 'hell money'. br / br /This is a brilliant film which really should satisfy any X-Files fan as well as people who want to see more then a little gore and violence. The film also makes full sense without having to see the whole series! br / br /5/5!!! mulder and scully rock September 28, 2008 Ms. M. Kane 1 out of 8 found this review helpful Well at long last we have the second x-file movie and it was worth the wait loved it story different form tv show but still great. Mulder and scully back together after all this time was ace and its good to see how there relationship has progressed the unite as one but still have there individuality that they had in the tv show. Big yin billy was good in the film though it would have been better if the original cast could have been in it the lone gun men for one was great to have skinner back at the last min i didnt think he was actually going to show.Cant wait for the dvd so i can add it to my collection, the x-files was the best tv show back in the 90s and still rules the roost now all these years later love it welcome back..... xxx Countdown November 7, 2008 Peter J. Hodgson (UK) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful Since its release I have heard and read mixed reviews mostly bad, these of course are from fans pissed off at the end of season 9! "The Truth" wasnt a very good or satisfying end to the series, as a hardcore fan I can certainly say. I suppose what people expected was something pretty damn spectacular here with this movie. We should expect that its the X Files for Peets sake. But many of the really cool episodes were written by writers other than Chris Carter, in fact I think you will find if you revise all your Box sets that the episodes written By Carter are the most lame. Kim Manners is working on Supernatural, Spotnitz is mostly on bigger movies while the rest are all over the board from CSI, Bones, the short lived 4400 right up to the new series of Fringe. I wasnt expecting anything fantastic story wise but what was promised "a stand alone movie" fan though I am of the conspiracy it was all explained to MY satisfaction in Season Six's "One Son" "Two Fathers" right up to Season 7's episode (forgot the name) where we discover Samantha Mulder is dead and has been for some time. This is X Files! even some of the stand alone episodes were a bit weak and give the guys there due it has been a while since they wrote anything new for these great characters. The experience was fun, the movie was average and alas there were no revelations...nothing the fans didnt already know. Seeing the characters I love on the screen again was something pretty awesome, I am so glad that they are back for the ages. Chris Carter will eventually make the 2012 movie, this should be the ultimate X File movie, the date of the final alien invasion. Where Mulders greatest mistake throughout the nine years and the years of silence after where he could have gone public and prepared the world for this...even if many wont believe at least he would have some more troops. Believe! Showing reviews 1-5 of 25 1 2 3 4 5 Next »
