Security Police: The motion picture (SP 野望篇) (2010)

Here, a Japanese serial remarkably similar to The X-files makes the transition to feature film.

A policeman with pre-cog abilities gets sucked into a plot by a cabal of young Turks aiming to seek power.

Part of the fun is watching how the conspiracy theory genre gets deformed into a Thousand Xanatos Gambit with proliferation of conspiracies within conspiracies, and super-secret factions that even secret factions aren't aware of.
