This sequel features Mulder being called out of retirement to work with Scully again to investigate the disappearances of a couple of FBI agents. They come across a former priest claiming to be psychic who can help them. The main problem with this film is that there's just no feeling of a big epic adventure. I didn't like the original movie but that at least gave us a bigger story. This once again played like a long episode of the show and not a particularly good one at that. There's this weird subplot where Scully obsesses over the priest psychic saying, "Don't give up".I don't know why she's so confused by this line. The acting, honestly isn't bad and it is nice to see these characters again. This takes place after the end of the show and doesn't in any way feel like a big finale, which is probably the biggest disappointment. It doesn't add up to anything big. I guess I appreciate how they were trying to be more philosophical by talking about religion. It's not terrible, but it's mostly pointless. **

... View MoreThis was in the theatres? It definitely watches more like a two part episode of the TV series than an actual film. The story itself is okay, entertaining although less woo-woo, out there sci-fi than I was expecting and more of a police procedural, find the serial killer which we see on just about every second show on cable TV nowadays.Anyways it wasn't terrible, David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson act there asses off, fully embracing Mulder and Scully (when did they get all in love and have a baby?) Billy Connolly is suitably creepy as the pedophile priest who claims to be having visions, Amanda Peet is an FBI agent who knows of their history with woo-woo cases and brings them back into the game to aid in the investigation into a group of missing women, one of whom is an undercover agent. I always struggle with Peet in the dramatic roles because she is so hilarious as a comedic actress.The mood throughout this is dark and cold, no cornfields here but lots of bleak snowy landscapes, snow covered highways, cars in snow banks, empty white fields so that I was continually reminded of the FX series Fargo. -Filmed in Pemberton, MT Currie (Lil-Wat nation) and Vancouver as Wisconsin.Not sure what to make of the weird post-credit sequence with Mulder and Scully all vacationey, in a rowboat in the middle of some tropical ocean, waving at the camera? 4/4/16
... View MoreI don not know, are U.S. people just dumb so or lazy? Why this is in every movie? Why? Is it a lack of interest or lack of knowledge, lack of imagination? Why almost in every movie where is a Russian person, why this Russian person has totally and utterly non-Russian funny sounding name??? What is this????:"Janke Dacyshyn"Have anyone from U.S.A. ever read some Russian book, ever seen some play or ever read the news?In the case that someone sometime in the future will shoot some movie where will have to be a Russian person with Russian name:Google List of surnames in Russia!And: Why Czech speaking actress is not even dubbed? Do every U.S. person believe that any "strange" Eastern European language is Russian?Btw, Eastern European...Austria is "western" although lying on the same latitude than Czech Republic :)
