The X-Files: I Want To Believe Review

Short version: The best that can be said about this X-Files film is that it’s good to see Mulder and Scully on screen once again.


Screen Rant reviews X-Files: I Want to Believe

 As Screen Rant’s resident X-Files fan It came down to me to deliver a review for The X-Files: I Want To Believe. As I’m UK-based it took me a week to catch up with the film as it’s only just opened here.

Firstly the film has got some pretty bad reviews, and the opening weekend’s box office was only $10 million - a third of what X-Files: Fight The Future took 10 years ago.

So is the film any good?

Yes and no.

Movie News Grab Bag July 25, 2008

In today’s Movie News Grab Bag, I’ve got a confirmation on the director and writer of the RoboCop sequel, X-Files: I Want To Believe is getting poor reviews, and my theory on why Ant-Man isn’t on the release slate yet.

RoboCop 4 (unless they ignore parts 2 and 3 and do a reboot): Darren Aronofsky, director of Pi and the one movie I liked but I’ll never watch again, Requiem For a Dream, has officially signed on to direct the RoboCop sequel, set further in the future after the program was shut down.  Will it be a new RoboCop, or will Murphy live again?  David Self (Road to Perdition) is writing the script.  Sounds like it’ll be fun, especially since it isn’t a remake!

Even More 'X-Files: I Want To Believe' Pictures

I’m running out of new ways to introduce new X-Files: I Want To Believe pictures.

I can’t think of any more jokes, stories about disinformation for even interesting anecdotes about David Duchonvy’s Calinfornication, except that The Red Hot Chilli Peppers are suing the makers of the show over the use of the title (as in their song… erm - Californication).

So without further rambling - if you continue reading you will see new images from the news X-Files film, that reveal nothing at all…well that we don’t already know…which is nothing.

You know what I mean.

Keep reading.

Can We Just Keep Calling It ‘X-Files 2?’

Can We Just Keep Calling It 'X-Files 2?'

Blazing across the internets today is news that the official title has finally been announced for the upcoming X-Files movie, which most folks have been referring to as simply X-Files 2.

So are you ready?

The X-Files: I Want to Believe

Really? That’s the title?

Anyone who reads this site knows I’m not a huge fan of the franchise, but the trailer actually looked pretty good to me. Gotta say though, my first thought when I read that was the title?

Lame.

It’s almost as lame as Quantum of Solace. (Thanks, Jon!)

New Spoiler-Free X-Files 2 Pictures

New Spoiler-Free X-Files 2 Pictures

The truth is getting out there.

As the July 25th release date approaches (or August 1st here in the UK - damn!) we are slowly but surely being treated to more and more glimpses of the new X-Files sequel.

MitchPileggi.net has scored some pictures from the Sci-Fi sequel spin-off. What is strange con,sidering that they appear on mitchpileggi.net - is that there are no images of Mitch Pileggi (Skinner, if you don’t know).

I mean, there’s nothing overly exciting about these new pictures, but there is just something comforting about seeing David Duchovny standing next to that “I want to believe poster”.

For more Mulder and Scully action… you got it… keep reading.

Are There More X-Files Spoilers Out There?

Are There More X-Files Spoilers Out There?

It seems to me that every other week we discover a new X-Files 2 plot “spoiler.” Every time, I duly inform you of said spoiler and then I tell you that I don’t believe that it’s true, and that it is just Chris Carter’s way of trying to stop people like me from letting too much of the story out into the public domain.

Fair enough, I’m quite enjoying this little game, and I can’t wait to see this film when it hits the big screen this summer.

We have seen everything ranging from “leaked” call sheets, a supposed werewolf picture with Chris Carter and even a beautifully photo-shopped picture of David Duchovny mid-werewolf transformation.

Now for yet another news update.

According to XFilesNews.com, Scully works as a doctor in a hospital and the film will be pretty gory: featuring a scene where a woman’s head is chopped off by a “crazy man.” [I don't know how gory this can be if it will no doubt be receiving the mandatory PG-13 rating to bring in the kiddies. - Vic]

We can pretty much bet money that this film will not feature lycanthrope action, but if not that, then what will it be about?

Love, possibly.

You are now about to head into major spoiler territory if this is true, so be warned.
