Review of The X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008) by Lauriee. — 26 Jul 2008
I've been an X-Files fan since its inception. The stories were so intertwined and fascinating. Unfortuntately this film doesn't hold a candle to the tv series or the first movie which was very well done and in keeping with the spirit on the series.
What I missed most was the relationship between Mulder and Scully. There was no witty banter, no both of them in the same groove. The story was also quite dark and sinister just for the sake of being dark; not mysterious and clever.
If you didn't see Chris Carter's name on the credits you wouldn't think he was the director. It just didn't feel like his story. I'm going out to the video store to rent season one and relive the series in all its glory.
