X-Files: I Want To Believe.

Yes I want to believe alright. The movie was unpredictable, like the old X-Files episodes, and Mulder & Scully did a great job keeping things going in perfect rivetting fashion. The only minor complaint I could have, is the Amanda Peet character, who I thought was a bit annoying. The atmosphere was well-maintained throughout, and the characters fleshed out nicely into their roles, aided by a superb script and good direction.

Overall, a good solid movie. Recommended to all the X-Philes out there.

ah, _v_!
i'm so very happy to read your review.
i felt the same way. i walked out of that theatre feeling very satisfied.
a lot of complaints are aimed at the fact that it's very slow-paced. i loved this, though. it was perfectly understated, but still felt epic.

anyway, i'm glad you enjoyed it.

So much better than that rubbish Black Water. Stephen Curry was great for laugh, pretty good performance all round, some very nice cinematography, not really enough jumps for me though.

6.5/10

It's a movie about nighttime and it's dark, and not just dark but darker than it has been on any night before.

You should check it out.

- Days of Darkness. .. so so zombie film .. tried to introduce some new ideas - but still fell back on some very worn cliches ...(including some terribly written characters) wasnt too bad overall.

- The Comebacks - I probably laughed once ... not very good.

One of the most devastating films that I've ever seen...incredibly well written and acted, but the last 15 minutes or so are VERY hard to watch.

Running with Scissors:
I really, Really understood where the director was trying to go with this story, and I was so incredibly hopeful that at some point in this movie he would pull it off,even a LITTLE, somehow, someway.

But ALAS... my optimism was not justly rewarded.
Never rent this....ever.:(
