To be honest, neither is a great film on its own, but then they're really made to be super-long episodes of an ongoing storyline, rather than being self-contained.
I'd have to say FTF over IWTB because:
- Mytharc! Yay! Even if it makes no effing sense! - They're still in the FBI and thus drive around looking hot in business suits. - HALLWAY SCENE OMFG. - The Syndicate are in it, and I love to hate them. - The Gunmen are in it, even if it's only for about ten seconds.
I do like IWTB too, despite my misgivings about the last couple of years of canon. However I feel I should qualify this by saying that I would happily pay to watch two hours of Mulder and Scully going to the supermarket and arguing about the laundry, so you know.
I never saw either at the cinema because I am still in the juvenile stage of Philedom, having never watched a single episode before last November.
