Sadly, For Fans Only

When an FBI agent goes missing, FBI Special Agent Dakota Whitney (Amanda Peet) seeks the Mulder's help in debunking the psychic visions of a former priest who claims that the missing woman is still alive.

The X-Files usually manages to make the bizarre plausible if not believable. However, this is not the case with I Want to Believe. The movie spends a lot of time examining the nature of Mulder's and Scully's faith that the kidnapping case takes a back seat. The end result...an unevenly paced film and a rushed finale.

Fans will enjoy seeing Mulder and Scully again but aside from that I can't provide another reason for watching this movie.
