      Critics Consensus

      Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny's chemistry remains intact, but overall, The X-Files revival lacks the creative spark necessary to sustain the initial rush of nostalgia. Read critic reviews

        A solid enough return to the small screen for Mulder & Scully. Follows many of the same structures to the first outings, and for fans that's just what they want.

      • Oct 23, 2022

        If you prefer the mythology episodes over the MOTW episodes, then the unexpected revival of The X-Files in the wake of I Want to Believe's failed attempt at resurrection will definitely upset you. Not just because only 2 of those 6 episodes actually focus on the mythology, despite the much different television landscape compared to the show's '90s heyday, when only Babylon 5 punished anybody who missed a single episode but because of Chris Carter being Chris Carter. There's retcons, a far-fetcged resurrection and still insisting on depicting an outdated mindset completely straight; the depiction of conspiracy theorists as heroic crusaders rather than the delusional nutjobs they became regarded as in the 21st century. Not to mention a very abrupt cliffhanger ending despite the show no longer having the same guarantee of a renewal that it had back when it was Fox's biggest non-Simpsons cash cow. The My Struggle episodes had their moments but no. II sucked, let's not mince words. However, if you, like me, prefer the MOTW episodes, then you might have a better time watching the 10th season of The X-Files. Mulder and Scully's chemistry is just as great as ever, even in the episodes dealing with that pesky Myth Arc, the special effects look great, it's really funny (mostly Were-Monster but the weakest MOTW episode that definitely has a bit of an Islamophobic feel, which I'm guessing was influenced by current events that make certain people wish Jack Bauer was a real person, had that gloriously insane sequence where Mulder gets high that has to be seen to be believed) and shows that even after all these years (and with their arguable MVP Vince Gilligan now making his own critically adored shows meaning that he sadly couldn't return to pen even a single episode), The X-Files still has some ideas left. With its great cinematic presentation, strong performances and even being quite emotional (seriously, why's all the best dramatic material in the MOTW episodes?), the 10th season of The X-Files is a mess during its mythology episodes but good sci-fi horror-thriller fun during its "filler" episodes. 3.5 stars because it's nice to see everyone again and because I prefer the MOTW episodes (as far as I'm concerned, the Myth Arc should've stopped with the Syndicate being taken out of commission in S6; by that point, the mythology felt superfluous and the fate of Mulder's sister was, no matter how much sense it made, was pretty much doomed to disappoint by the time it would be resolved). At least S11's existence takes the sting off of that really abrupt cliffhanger. Old habits die hard for Mr. Carter, huh?

      • Sep 30, 2019

        Although enjoyable and definitely worth a watch for X-files fans, a 6-episode season wasn't enough to fit both myths and monster episodes.
