While critics may not like this movie, if you are a SATC fan who understands that sometimes the show is just about having fun and wearing crazy clothes, you'll like this movie. Maybe it's not as great as the first one, but it's still a good time. I thought it was exactly what I would expect from the SATC brand.
If you like seeing Mulder and Scully be Mulder and Scully, or you don't know anything about the X-Files, you'll probably think this movie is just fine. If you're looking for classic X-Files plot lines, you'll be disappointed. David and Gillian do a fine job reprising their roles, so that was fun to watch. The plot was more murder mystery than X-Files/sci fi fun. It was kind of boring, but not awful. At the end of the day, it was an okay movie. Hopefully they will make another one that is a little more X-Files like.
It was worth the near 20 year wait to see this movie. The trailers do not do the movie justice. It was fun and exciting, everything you would expect from an Indiana Jones movie. Harrison Ford is still great in the role, and Shia LaBeouf makes a fun addition to the cast. The plot wasn't perfect, but that didn't matter. It was still a great movie.
