I was worried when they said it would be a stand alone, but this was a great movie. We saw development in Scully and Mulder's relationship on a meaningful level and it was connected to the action of the plot. The storyline was creepsville! If you're a true fan of the series--not just the myth arc, or not just the big budget hollywood original movie--you will appreciate this film. It could bring new fans to the show, who enjoy smart creepy style suspense.
