The X Files. Another movie.

Note: This is not an spoiler... you can read without any worry.

I missed those years... the ones where uncontrollable and irrational passion irrigated every cell on my brain, and were fuel to burn insanely. Nights filled with impatience and expectation. I revived those nights today. In fact, I just arrived from the premiere of The X Files: I want to believe, that ubiquitous phrase that really were the central thread of a whole 9 seasons of the series. Here it is present, not only in the title: the story itself is way more down to earth than the previous movie, exploring a lot more the characters and less the stupidly ridiculous plot that started to grow around the fifth season and therefore crawled to the first movie. This one plays a lot more with the spectator, and while less gargantuan, the drama and tension between both the main characters and their believes, are stronger and better.

Very nice photography for most of the outdoor takes, and the most traditional darkness from the first couple of seasons which played very nice with the not-so-close shots.

Not everything is sweet candy either. There was a Deus Ex Machina I didn't like much, but I am not the one to critizise, because I haven't really followed the series after it became really popular (5th series) and so, I can only say I didn't like some spots in the movie, like a personal opinion.

Some point remains from the previous movie: The soundtrack is better than the movie. Not spectacular, as far as I can hear, and maybe not the same big names on every track, but I really liked the ambientation.

I would watch this movie again, when it comes to DVD, even if I went to the cinema with very low expectations (and that's good!), and just because I wanted to see Gillian Anderson again, after so many years. Sometimes I even have pity on those two actors because they simply got the star-wars effect. But my schok about actors was when I saw Xzibit there! at the first moment I couldn't believe it, but after a while, there he was, and doing a very nice job!

As a conclusion, I liked the movie, a lot, but I have to be honest. This is the last time we will be able to see anything new from The X Files, except from the merchandising, of course, because this film has clearly marked the end of an era.



P.S. Dana Scully (I want to believe she was) really looks sexy on bikini! P: Sorry I had to spoil everything!
