As a fan of TXF, I really enjoyed this movie, as did my hubby (who is NOT a fan, so I was surprised about that). I actually think hubby might have liked it even more than I did, which says a lot since he never watched the tv show. The film does not deal with your typical X-File story; instead it is a thinking psychological casefile with several twists & turns, the paranormal aspect being a psychic priest. I feel that I will need to go & see it again to really digest all the details, as there is A LOT of info to put together. I loved seeing David Duchovny & Gillian Anderson together again as Mulder & Scully. I think the movie could have benefitted from MORE involvement of the other actors on the series, so I hope that they them back for the next movie in a greater capacity. I did find myself missing the mytharc aspect of TXF, so I hope the next movie deals with that (although hubby was happy that there were no aliens &/or government conspiracies). All in all, I think philes and non-philes alike will like this film, so go see it; but plan to see it more than once if you truly want to absorb it all.
