The X-Files: I Want to Believe
Yes mulder and Scully are back…
They’ve left aliens and UFO’s back in the basement!
This is a fresh spin on what we loved about the series with some new dark undertones, that make’s us question what we believe is faith, God and the notion of redemption.
The film itself is less action driven/CGI heavy than the first one, which i liked only because it allowed us to understand and follow our favorite duo, investigating and expanding their relationship, to greater horizons.
The performance of both David and also Gillian are compelling and dramatic, making us feel for them as they carry baggage from the choices they have made.
The supernatural thriller is a stand-alone story in the tradition of some of the show’s most acclaimed and beloved episodes, and takes the always-complicated relationship between Fox Mulder (Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Anderson) in unexpected directions.
Mulder continues his unshakable quest for the truth, and Scully, the passionate, ferociously intelligent physician, remains inextricably tied to Mulder’s pursuits.

Goofs
- Continuity: Near the end of the movie, when Scully visits Mulder at his house, Scully’s white Ford Taurus is parked outside, even though it had been wrecked earlier in the film. When Scully comes out of the house, a silver Ford Fusion is parked outside.
- Factual errors: In the film, they refer to the Richmond “DA” who appears later. Virginia has no District Attorneys. Prosecutors in Virginia are Commonwealth’s Attorneys.
- Errors in geography: Though the attacks occur in Somerset, West Virginia, in one scene shot from inside the victim’s car, you can clearly see a Virginia State Police Inspection sticker.
- Continuity: While driving on a snow-covered road, Mulder collides with a truck equipped with a snow plow. His car’s front headlight is visibly damaged. In the next scenes, the damage changes from shot to shot.
- Factual errors: Scully and Mulder fly in on a helicopter from Mulder’s house. After landing and exiting the helicopter the rotor is still turning but Scully’s and Mulder’s hair remain in place. The rotor wash would blow their hair around, in the next shot you see them walking away from helicopter with the rotor still turning.
