I shall give my impression/recommendation in short, spoiler-free form first. Then some spoilery stuff under a cut. DON'T GO BACK THERE UNLESS YOU'VE SEEN IT PLEASE

if you had stayed until the end of the credits you would have seen mulder without a shirt on and scully in a bikini chillin' in a small rowboat in the middle of the ocean waving at the helicopter passing above.
I always stay till the end of the credits (unlike most people). I'm pretending that bit never happened, mostly because it does NOT fit the tone and mood of the film, and kind of made me want to slap the director.
I agree 100%! I hoped that the final scene meant "don't give up" would apply to Mulder, too - I took her faltering smile to mean that she was preparing herself for the surgery, not that she was leaving him. But yes, hella confusing.
I really liked how their character development (Scully as the driven professional, Mulder as the eccentric in the hidden back room with his newspaper clippings) felt authentic, while at the same time they hadn't solved all of their issues, either as a couple or as individuals.
