With
the X-Files closed down, agent Mulder and Scully have been assigned
to work on domestic terrorism threats. Meanwhile in a small Texas
town local children have stumbled onto a long forgotten cave.
Falling into the cave through a sink hole one of the kids finds
himself in a pool of "black oil". Soon these two separate
incidents will be linked together with Mulder and Scully connecting
the dots. Now Mulder and Scully will go on a quest from the blistering
sun of Texas to the freezing cold of Antarctica, that will finally
lead them both to the truth.
Shot
in between seasons five and six of the X-Files television
show, Fight the Future is both a great link to the show
and the separate seasons and a great starting point for any new
fans.
All
of the shows regular cast get to make appearances in the big screen
version as well.
Shot
on a bigger budget and full of special effects the TV show could
never afford, Fight the Future delivers the extra bang for the
buck. The "black oil" is finally fully explained and
we learn that it does not stay in the oil form for long. In the
artic Mulder must rescue Scully from a cryo-pod like state and
we get to see the scope of the aliens plans as the amount of hibernating
humans is extraordinary. The long awaited kiss between Mulder
and Scully finally
nope, not gonna tell ya watch and see
for yourself .
From
bombs, to government cover ups, to the truth of the secret purpose
of F.E.M.A, and the role that bees will play in our fight against
alien forces, Fight the Future finally answers a lot of questions
that the show has put forward in the last five years, it also
opens a lot of new ones. A must see for any fan and a good flick
if youre not, but watch out you may get hooked.
