X Files: I want to believe - Mini Review
Like someone said “I want to believe” it is good. When asked how good of a movie it was I tend to say:
“It was an ok movie, but it was not a good X-files movie”
I am somewhat of an x-files fan and just watched the whole 9 seasons of the show last summer over a period of a couple of month and enjoyed it immensly. The show never really went bad after being on for so long and the last episodes of last season were quite good.
Since the mythology of the show was so good, one would expect the continuation of that and tying up of the loose ends or something of the sorts. Aliens or Sully’s and Moulder’s superi-ntelligent child, supersoldiers there are many cool things…No you get none of that… Instead, what you get is an extended “moster of the week” type episode which was not even all that great.
It was about psychic convicted pedophile preist that has some kind of connection with one of his past victims and that victims partner trying to save him by killing people and attaching the head of dead guy on to them, it does not sound like a very good idea. But they pulled it of considering that.
It was okay for a strange detective movie, and it was good to see the M&S dynamic but I am afriad it was not good enough. And some of the themes in the movie were, to say the least, weird. I will not go into detail. I also heard somebody say that the phrase “i want to believe” was said too much through the movie, though I have not noticed.
Anyways, I am somewhat disappointed but it is not unbareble.
