Movie Trailer Review: The X-Files: I Want to Believe

 

Being an X-Files fan I was very excited for another big screen adventure starring my old pals Mulder and Scully, but after viewing this pedestrian little teaser, I'm now a bit wary. Some chick runs afoul of an Ice Road Trucker and he makes a popsicle out of her? Is that the best Chris Carter and Company can do after 10 years?

Let's hope it's just a bad trailer and there's more to the film than another lame hunt for another lame serial killer. I want a bunch of cool-looking aliens (of the non-friendly variety), some major screen time for my main man A.D. Skinner and a visit from that lovable Peacock family.

After thirty seconds of research, I see the film only tackles one particular case and does not touch on the myriad of unanswered questions from the X Files mythology. That is actually good news because I can't remember any of those nerdy questions and don't really care anymore. I have three notebooks full of unanswered Lost questions to occupy my precious time.
