A Gift to Fans
PostedJuly 26, 2008

After waiting six years to see Mulder and Scully again, I've now seen IWTB twice in the past 24 hours. The movie is a true "thank you" to the fans. There are so many moments that only a true Phile would appreciate. I won't give them away, but believe me, they'll leave you smiling.
That old Mulder/Scully magic is still there and David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson have gotten better looking with age, if that's possible.
The case at the heart of the movie has moments scary enough to make you jump out of your seat and creepy enough to make you look away from the screen. And there are some moments in the movie where I literally said outloud, "I did NOT see that coming."
The back and forth banter between Mulder and Scully is as tender and witty as ever. As Mulder says, "just like old times."
Billy Connolly gives a stand-out performance, and reminds us one thing the XF writers do so well: give us a character we should hate but can't. Think CSM or Krycek.
Keep your eyes open for very brief cameos by some interesting people.
I won't give any of the plot away but I will say, stay through the credits. Trust me :)
