Editorial Review:
Thirty-seven thousand years ago, a deadly secret was buried in a cave in Texas. Now the secret has been unleashed. And it's discovery may mean the end of all humanity.
"The plague to end all plagues"
When a terrorist bomb destroys a building in Dallas, Texas, FBI Agents Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) are drawn into a dangerous conspiracy surpassing anything they've ever encountered. With the dubious assistance of a paranoid doctor (Academy Award -winner Martin Landau). Mulder and Scully risk their careers and their lives to hunt down a deadly virus which may be extraterrestrial in origin - and could destroy all life on earth. Their pursuit of truth pits them against the mysterious Syndicate, powerful men who will stop at nothing to keep their secrets safe, leading the agents from the cave in Texas, to the halls of the FBI, and finally to a secret installation in Antarctica which holds the greatest secret of all.
The X-Files: Fight the Future Reviews:
X-files fan favorite. 
2009-11-26 - Good movie for the x-files fan. Still some questions remain. How did Mulder get to Antarctica and how did the duo get back?
For the Mrs.
2009-06-15 - My wife loves it, and Amazon had it at a great price, as well as shipped free with my other items.
Fair Condition 
2009-05-26 - Great price for this DVD. Gave it to my nephew as a gift. As a used DVD it was in fair condition. A few minor scratches and fingerprints, but it played and that's what counts. thanks!
You need to watch if you are an X-Files completist
2009-04-24 - I am watching the entire X-Files series from start to finish in order. I didn't see the first movie when it was released in theaters. I'm glad I bought and watched it now - I feel it's necessary for me to have seen it as part of the entire series - but it's not great. There are individual TV episodes that are much, much better. But it's not dreadful. Just not great.
Must own for X-Philes 
2009-03-29 - X-Files: Fight the Future flowed well in the series for when it came out, I think in between the fifth and sixth seasons. Conspiracy theories, Well-manicured man, black oil and bees? You can't get better than that in the XF universe. More Mulder and Scully than X-Files:I Want to Believe, and a better overall plot, but I still think that one is a must own for X-Files fans too.
Right now, at $5.99 at Amazon is a great price for a movie who previously was considered "Hard to find" and was going past $60 on Ebay. I took away a star for pacing. There are slow, boring moments in between decent action and dialogue, and while there is good amount of Mulder and Scully, there is not enough of them together to rate an excellent 5 stars. Still, a great movie for the story arc and the series as a whole. Highly recommended for every X-Phile, and a nice lowered sale price great for those philes to pick it up.
