THE X FILES: I WANT TO BELIEVE (Theatrical Release USA 2008)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.3|5.0 Starsìììì

The X Files: I Want to Believe—classic X-Files story turned into a movie—has the typical format that the television series used and will satisfy the X-Files fan. The main roles are reprised by David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson. Director Chris Carter did an outstanding job re-capturing the original flavor and intent of the show. The acting is good; the portrayal is great; the suspense is the same.
