Concept of meeting and killing yourself was intriguing enough to get me to the theater without knowing anything about the real plot thread at the end. Willis and Gordon-Levitt played off each other well, and characteristics of Willis show up in G-L pretty well.
Some parts of the plot I found a little pedestrian, but overall I enjoyed this flick. Go see it. It will keep you thinking about the "world" and its order, as you learn more about the "rewards and punishments" system in play.
Pros great actors
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This never felt like a long movie. It was suspenseful, as I couldn't guess what was going to happen next, until the very end, and even then I wasn't sure. Well woven story with rich scenes, great acting, and camera work. Nothing hammy in this cinema sandwich.
I watched the ending and walked out thinking just how good the movie, and the series was. Christopher Nolan is an excellent story teller and movie maker.
Great work, don't miss it.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors, great cinematography
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I really liked this movie for its realism and emotional impact. I have no doubt that EOD technicians live in a pressure cooker like these guys do. The directing and photography were excellent. I felt like I was there. The lead actors were very good, The only borderline aspect was predictable scene with the Colonel/Counselor in the field.
Having "been there done that," I found nothing implausible. Not for kids, sensitive souls, nor a first date unless you both watch a lot of UFC action.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

You don't have to be a fan to like this movie...

This movie stands on its own. You really don't need all the X-Files background for this tale to make sense.
It's been quite a while since the last movie, and obviously much has happened between Scully and Mulder. This time around the threat is much more Earth bound. The story operates on several levels with quite a bit of speed folded in to keep you involved, if not on the edge of your seat. From the love-hate relationship between Mulder and the FBI, through the varying trails the main story line can take you down, to the faceted relationship between Dana and Fox, This was a good experience.
See it, you will be pleased.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
