"As pure movie, The X-Files more or less works. As a story, it needs a sequel, a prequel, and Cliff Notes."
—
Roger Ebert
Roger Ebert"The... film strains to involve as many familiar elements as possible."
—
The New York Times
The New York Times"(It is) essentially a supersize episode that ignores a slew of fifth-season developments and adds yet another monster to the mix, one that owes a striking debt to ALIEN."
—
TV Guide
TV Guide"The X-Files does offer a bunch of old-fashioned, visceral pleasures."
—
The Washington Post
The Washington Post"The film awkwardly attempts to fill in five years’ worth of back story..."

Los Angeles Times

Time Out
Time Out"David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson are enormously sympathetic heroes."

San Francisco Chronicle
San Francisco Chronicle"(It) serves up set-pieces and a measure of scope that are beyond TV size but remain rather underwhelming by feature standards."
—

Variety"As a movie, The X-Files is studiously lurid and watchable hokum, but that’s all it is."
—
