Movie Reviews of The X-Files: The Complete Collector's Edition
Movie Review: Great content, horrible packaging
Summary: 4 Stars
For the sheer volume of X-files episodes, this is a bargain- much cheaper than buying the seasons alone. I bought this as a Christmas gift for my 22 year old daughter, who is an avid fan. When she got it, season 4 was actually stuck to the box, and the drawer with the bonus materials was impossible to open without destroying the whole box. We returned it and had a replacement sent. Again, the box had the same flaw- drawer unable to open without destroying the box.
It appears the weight of the dvds at the top of the box causes the floor of the box to collapse into the bottom drawer. Basically, whoever designed this box um, shouldn't be designing boxes. Maybe it was an alien, unfamiliar with this thing we call gravity- yeah, that's it...
We decided to just keep it anyway cause hey, we like the X-files and there is nothing wrong with the dvds, just really poorly designed packaging.

Received my order in just under 4 days. The set that I received looks just like the display pictures. The drawer on my set works just fine (I guess they have fixed the earlier problem), the set is complete with everything that you would expect to have. Enjoying watching all the episodes, highly recommend for anyone interested in owning the entire collection. I purchased my set when the price was just $164.00 ...
Movie Review: x-files complete 9 seasons plus the movie
Summary: 5 Stars
this is the most awesome purchase that i have ever made in my life. this boxed set is so nice and so worth the money. the cds are in a heavy duty cardboard box that is very sturdy and will last a lifetime. all the extras that came with the set are just great also. i am very pleased. such a great find.Movie Review: 5 stars for the show AND DVDs, One star for the packaging
Summary: 4 Stars
The show is awesome, I have been watching it ever since I was 8 and I loved it. I wanted the show on DVD, and now I finally have it: All 9 seasons on DVD, plus the movie. The sound is amazing, and the picture is beautiful! It looks just as good as it did when it originally came out on DVD.
However, this would be a 5 star review if it weren't for such juvenile packaging. It's a pretty cool looking case when you buy it, but when you remove the wrapper, the thing is very floppy and poorly constructed from paper. The drawer is a real betch too, you have to hold it sideways to slide the material out. The discs are held in VERY bad packaging. It's just as bad as There Will Be Blood, it'll take a LONG time tog et one disc out since it's tucked in to the paper very tightly. It looks easy to get out, it is not.
But overall, very great set, and a must for all fans of the show who don't have it... or people curious about the show!
Movie Review: Great collection at a great price!
Summary: 5 Stars
My job required constant international travel, so I missed most of the X Files and other TV shows during their heyday.
I became a TNT X FILES on Monday night junkie. Actually, the shows began on Tuesdays at one AM and went until five, and also usually ran on one more early morning per week, plus fill ins.
When TNT scheduling changed and it appeared that the X Files were not going to be a regular part of the line up, I found this on AMAZON and was amazed at the price break and FREE SHIPPING, NO TAX savings.
I've read many of the other reviews, and won't attempt a review of the X Files. I have had no trouble with the case, nor the albums. No doubt the DVDs can be scratched by cardboard, but since I can't imagine watching a disc more than once or twice a year, I don't see that as a problem for personal use.
If you are in withdrawal from TNT, this product on AMAZON is for you!
