Fox Mulder and Dana Scully both worked at the FBI as partners, a bond between them that led to their becoming lovers. But now they’re out of the FBI and have gone their separate ways. 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 about the paranormal and throwing pencils into his ceiling. Scully and Mulder are brought together again when a special case requires Mulder’s expertise, and Scully is prevailed upon to find him. The case involves a pedophile priest who claims he is having psychic visions regarding the whereabouts of a missing FBI agent.-IMDB
A shockingly good movie, it's flaws only add to the sense of grunginess, and fear
What a disappointing coda to such a wonderful series. I'd really like there to be a third movie, a good one. I want Mulder and Scully to be awesome again. This was just meh.
About on par with a below-average episode. While not as polished as the first film, there's some effective atmosphere with some nice chilly imagery from director Chris Carter and cinematographer Bill Roe, and there's some solid performances - but the plot is awkwardly paced and bogged down by ponderous subplots. Maybe worth watching for die-hard fans of the series, but ultimately underwhelming.
