First reviews hit for new X-Files movie

The cloak of secrecy surrounding The X-Files: I Want To Believe is beginning to lift, as the first reviews emerge...

Published on Jul 22, 2008

While we don’t get The X-Files: I Want To Believe in the UK until the week later, it hits US cinemas in the States, and that means the first collection of reviews have started to hit.

It’s been, to be fair, a very mixed bag so far, too. Over at Ain’t It Cool News, they’re not too keen on the film, while Moviehole is declaring it as one of the best flicks of the year. The pair of reviews disagree on quite a lot of areas of the film, and we wait now for the avalanche of American reviews that are due in the next few days.

We’ll be deciding for ourselves on the flick next week when we get in to see it, but for now, you can check out the contrasting reviews by following the links down at the bottom there…
