watching movies one cup at a time

Welcome to Ice Cubes In My Coffee :: The Caffeinated Movie Guide. I love movies and I have strong opinions about all of them. When they are great, they can change your life. And when they suck, you can at least have fun ripping them to shreds. I have seen a million movies and I have a bunch of movie facts and trivia stored up in my head - it's time to share. I'm going to be filling this movie guide with reviews on an ongoing basis, building up a large library of reviews so YOU, the movie-watching public, will know what movies are essential viewing and what movies you must avoid at all costs (hint: anything with the words "Starring Dane Cook"). I will also be posting some interesting articles and lists along the way as well. So grab a cup of joe and settle in for some movie talk!

The X-Files: I Want to Believe

Starring: David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson
Director: Chris Carter
Year of Release: 2008
Rated in cups

It’s been 10 years since the last X-Files movie, 6 years since the series ended, and it’s heyday was in the late ’90s. So why drag it out of retirement now? Is there a story that just has to be told? More secrets to reveal? Sadly no. The movie doesn’t seem to serve any purpose except to give Duchovny, Anderson, and Chris Carter something to do. The movie is essentially a glorified TV episode and not a very good one. The story is very boring and hardly seems worth the effort at all. We waited all these years for this!? Spare us. If that’s all you got then just let the X-Files die.

Bottom Line: It’s a waste of time. Rent if you’re an X-Files fan, otherwise skip it.
