Must see AT the theater

Admittedly, I am a major X-Files fan and have been waiting for years for this movie to come out, so when they advertised a release date, I knew I would be at the premier. This movie was nothing like the first one. It didn't center on the alien/conspiracy portions of the show (which weren't ever my favorite anyway) and instead took a dark walk into the paranormal (just like the first two seasons of the show typically did). It had a similar feel to Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose. It contains very dark content and is extremely suspenseful. The rug doesn't get pulled out from under the viewer too many times, so maybe the other reviewer was disappointed by that, but I found the movie to be exciting and fulfilling, answering some of the questions I have wondered many times since the show ended. Also, it is SO awesome to see Mulder and Scully interacting in what would be nine years later since the show ended. The movie was also careful to make sure that non-X-Files fans wouldn't be left out, making sure to at least partially explain most things that were brought up from their past. There are some really funny parts, one involving George W., as well as Mulder's typical wry jokes. I loved it so much and I would highly recommend you see it on the big screen. You will be glad you did.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
