I must admit...I didn't like the plot of the movie.
I did like the fact that there was another X-Files movie.
But the disappointment in the story hit me hard.
The writers have always been known for non-conventional twists, for the sinister atmosphere they could create and the show was known for its inventive camera angles and spine-tingling soundtrack.
This movie, however, lacked most of that and that made me incredibly sad.

But I loved what they did to the Mulder and Scully relationship. It felt right, realistic and good.
Feelings the rest of the movie unfortunately couldn't provoke...
There still are reasons to absolutely love this movie since it is the ultimate gift the creators of the show could give to all those crazy fans out there - myself included:
- The countless insider jokes - 
- Mulder and Scully -
- The Skinman - 
- the snow and Vancouver - 
- Mulder's jokes -
- Mark Snow's love theme for Mulder and Scully - 
- the feeling that along with time the world of the X-Files has changed, too,
 which is comforting and scary at the same time - 


And  I am still "happy as a clam" that my most favorite couple under the stars is doing great and that they are finally getting the vacation they deserve, teehee.
