Titolo: [Anteprime] [Finalmente InTopic] Fight the future

Io non so mica se ce la faccio ad aspettare fino al 4 settembre...
Review by Melissa J. Perenson
<snip degli spoiler>
 
The X-Files movie has a fast-paced story--written by Carter and series 
co-executive producer Frank Spotnitz--that's bound to keep audiences on 
the edge of their seats. It includes all of the elements found in a 
typical X-Files episode: unexplained phenomena, fright-filled moments, 
and a multi-layered subtext. It also successfully combines an intelligent 
story with big-budget action and eye-catching special effects (a balance 
few event films manage to achieve--witness Godzilla), even though the 
convoluted plot will likely leave moviegoers puzzling over how the pieces 
fit together. 
Against the odds, Carter has also made a film that is accessible to a 
general audience but that won't seem redundant to longtime fans of the TV 
series. This is thanks to a clever narrative and to the fact that the 
film only focuses on one aspect of the X-Files mythos. Even so, Files 
fans will get more out of the Fight the Future than non-fans, and certain 
scenes definitely take on a different meaning when viewed in the context 
of the series' five-year history. 
Director Rob Bowman, who helmed 25 X-Files TV episodes, keeps the action 
rolling smoothly and crafts some exquisite shots that would have been 
impossible to capture on the small screen. Likewise, Anderson and 
Duchovny's TV chemistry translates smoothly to the big screen, and the 
high emotion quotient of the film even brings a new undercurrent of 
energy and camaraderie to their already unique relationship. Both actors 
do well at making their performances go the distance on the larger canvas 
of film without being distracted by the movie's greater landscape. 
As Carter promised, Fight the Future also answers long-standing questions 
raised on the TV show, but in the process it asks a host of new questions 
itself. That's frustrating news for fans of the series, but in the end 
it's okay--after all, it wouldn't truly be an X-File if everything was 
tied up neatly in a box. 
Fight the Future succeeds at being an entertaining movie while at the 
same time providing true fans with the quintessential X-Files experience. 
Better still is the fact that the fresh acting of Duchovny and Anderson--
and indeed the reinvigoration of the franchise itself--indicates that The 
X-Files has avoided the fate of Star Trek: The Next Generation, whose 
first film effort, Generations, proved uninspiring. -- Melissa
