Summary: They Almost Kissed!
Review: That pesty cigar guy is back! And get this: bee pollen extract, corn, and alien life forms are the key in solving whether the aliens will win or not. And guess what? Though Mulder learns about the "alien takeover"; though Scully gets abducted by the aliens in their huge space craft; and though that darn cigar guy is masterminding all the secrey in the aliens "reclaiming" their planet, the X-Files movie is a tease. It lacks the almost spooky, clever yet down-to-earth storyline of the series. But, we do learn that Scully finally gets to see Mulder's theories from HIS point of view. We do see the dynamic duo ALMOST kiss. We do appreciate that perhaps what we know may not be what we should believe. I saw the movie 3 years ago and was intriqued because I'm a die-hard fan. I saw the DVD and still a loyal fan; but this reviewer says: the series is more clever, more intense, more hardcore X-Files. Scully and Mulder, however, display thier utmost in performance, in intrique, and in teamwork. For this we should be thankful.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Die-Hard X-philers migth be disappointed
Review: Since the Chris Carter wanted this movie to be understood by all viewers without alienating them.It kinda left die hard X-Philers going ho-hum but very entertaining none the less.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "You will dicover the truth, Mr. Muldar!"
Review: The first time I ever really watched "The X-Files" was when I went to see the movie 3 years ago! Since then, I've been a big fan of the show ever since, and of Muldar and Scully! What makes the film great is that it really introduces new fans to the series, and you don't have to be an X-Files fan to know exactly what it's about! At that point of its release, the movie was intended as a culmination of 5 seasons! It tells an interesting story about an alien virus which has been around since the last ice age that has been covered up by the government for so many years, and how Muldar and Scully have been trying to uncover the truth about it! In terms of the movies realism, the visual effects for the building exposion are very beautiful, and it gave you a real sense of what it was like in Oklahoma City 6 years ago. For many who have never seen the TV series, then you can always watch the movie for a good starting referance, and enjoy it! I know I did!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome!!
Review: If someone wanted me to thimk of one word that describes this movie straight away, I wold have to say suspense. This is sooooo much better than all of the episodes!(There's also some romance between Muldor and Scully.) Scully wants to quit, but does she?? Watch it and find out!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Why did the bee have to sting Scully?
Review: I have watched this movie fourteen times and I have to say that the scene outside Mulder's apartment always has me reaching for the tissues. I only wish that the bee hadn't stung Scully! The rest of the movie is great too, with stunning visual effects and outstanding performances from Duchovny and Anderson (as i've come to expect) Here's a tip: Buy the special edition because you get 45 minutes of 'the making of the x-files movie' with interviews. It's well worth the money!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fight THE Future
Review: This movie is absolutely awesome, the extra features offered by the dvd format along with the THX encoded sound is beyond description! Again, the on screen chemistry between Anderson and Duchovny is superb, though Chris Carter said there would NEVER be a physical relation with Mulder and Scully, it was handled very well none the less! There is no comparison of the vhs format to the dvd..dvd is far superior in picture and sound and this movie proves that point so well. Buy it and you will watch it over and over again..it is that good, even if you are not a follower of the X-FILES tv series.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fantastic!!
Review: This is my favourite movie of all-time!!

Yes I am an x-files fan, but I became one when I saw this movie! Right after I saw this(for about the 5th time), I watched the season premiere of the 6th season(in the series), and was hooked for life. Yes for life!!

The plot was amazing, the actors even better, the special effects mezmorizing, and the writing-awesome! I loved every aspect to this movie (Fight The Future), and that's why I rated it with 5 stars.

David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson are the amazing Mulder and Scully, and their chemistry, dynamic, everything was very, very well-acted.

You must see this movie, even if you're not an x-files fan! Trust me, you will enjoy it! If you are an x-files' fan, you'll more than enjoy it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Amazing!
Review: This was a great movie. David Duchovney and Gillian Anderson were both excellent. I also loved how it was slightley romantic. This is a must-have for all X-Files fans as it fills in the gap between seasons 5 and 6. Again, this was a great movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: X-Files: Fight The Future
Review: I remember seeing the theatrical release and thinking, how little it relied on TV continuity. (Which really helped some friends who had come with me, who had only seen Jose Chung's From Outer Space.) Over all, the theatrical version was good, and made GREAT by the appearance of Martin Landau and The Lone Gunmen. The video version, with less than three minutes of added footage, changed it into a spectacular X-Files experience. It tied the movie into the TV series, making the movie that much more important. Instead of being JUST a means to keep Duchovny happy, it had a reason for being the big deal it was. (IMHO, the fate of Samantha scene should never have been cut.)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Nice and creepy
Review: The X-files movie is basically a long, creepier episode. The aliens are nice and freaky (yup we FINALLY got to see them) and there are quite a few major suprises in the film. If you're an X-Files fan you must watch this, if you're not then you might still like it since the story is pretty self contained
