FIGHT THE FUTURE.

FBI agents Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) try to find out why several fire fighters and a boy were placed inside a federal building that subsequently exploded.

This movie materialized after the fifth season of the popular TV series about aliens and governmental conspiracies. Its creator, Chris Carter, delivers answers to many of the questions asked during its run; die-hard fans of the show will find that part of the film more exciting than others, but the stars are fun to watch.

Production values are significantly higher than on TV; we get plenty of spectacular sequences with great visual effects.
