Run Time 5 hrs and 37 min

Summary:

Dr. Dana Scully struggles with an emotionally heavy case, a young boy with a rare brain disease. The only way to save him is a very painful series of surgeries. Meanwhile, she convinces Mulder to help the FBI with a tough case that seems classically out of the X-Files.

Additional Comments:

  • I think I saw this movie, but I remembered less of it than I did the Fight the Future one.
  • This one is well after the X-Files closed. Mulder and Scully are partners/lovers but not married. They’re probably mid-40’s here.
  • Mulder’s called in to consult on a tough, time-sensitive case involving a kidnapped young special agent.
  • It’s a complicated case involving a disgraced priest who claims to have visions.
  • The medical/normal side of this case is highly creepy. The paranormal side is par for the course.
  • It’s good to see Mulder and Scully back in action, but it also feels like that ship has sailed. I’d almost rather believe they solved the last of the X-Files and road off into the sunset sort of thing.
  • It’s good but not as good as the earlier books in the series. I’m not sure why it’s even considered part of this series because I believe the rest of the stories are originals as opposed to being based on movie scripts.

Conclusion:

A good story with X-Files vibes, but much like the beloved TV series, it feels like it’s trying too hard. (I don’t think I ever finished that series. I have it somewhere, I just never watched season 8 and 9.)
