Scully works as a staff physician at a Catholic hospital. Her focus these days is on a young boy with an incurable brain disease. Administration wants to give up on him. Scully, who feels a special bond with the boy, does not. Meanwhile, Mulder's focus is on clipping newspaper articles, throwing pencils into his ceiling and writing about the paranormal. Scully and Mulder are brought together as partners again when a special case requires Mulder's expertise and Scully is prevailed upon to convince him to help. The case involves a pedophile priest who claims he is having psychic visions regarding the whereabouts of a missing FBI agent.

The X Files: I Want to Believe ... feels like a TV episode that's been stretched out of shape, like a badly washed jumper

The film's best scene is when Scully announces she'll perform a stem cell transplant that afternoon and immediately rushes to Google it.
August 30, 2009
A sloppy, second-rate entry in the catalog of standalone X-Files adventures.

Astute readers will note that I have abstained from making cheap cracks about the I Want to Believe title, an almost superhuman feat given this movie's abundance of sheer nonsense.

Is it a stirring final hurrah for the show, wrapping up all its dangling plot threads? No. Is it an excellent evocation of what the show was, with a depth of soul and character most thrillers still don't bother with? Yes.

Only a fan would be inclined to tolerate this dunderheaded mystery.

The movie gets into some pretty freaky territory in the third act, but for this casual fan of the series, it's a strong effort featuring some great characters.

Even the apologists will have to admit that this is not the X-Files movie they'd hoped for.

Lazy plotting, so-so performances and squandered ideas lead to only one diagnosis: there is no compelling reason to keep this moribund formula on a life-support machine.

There was a lot of secrecy surrounding the new X-Files movie... But the film's big secret is out now: it sucks.

There may be no going back, as much as we might want to believe otherwise.
