| Professional Review: |
| Before they unleashed the idiotic mayhem of Independence Day and Godzilla, the idea-stealing team of director Roland Emmerich and producer-screenwriter Dean Devlin concocted this hokey hit about the discovery of an ancient portal capable of zipping travelers to "the other side of the known universe." James Spader plays the Egyptologist who successfully translates the Stargate's hieroglyphic code, and then joins a hawkish military unit (led by Kurt Russell) on a reconnaissance mission to see what's on the other side. They arrive on a desert world with cultural (and apparently supernatural) ties to Earth's ancient Egypt, where the sun god Ra (played by Jaye Davidson from The Crying Game) rules a population of slaves with armored minions and startlingly advanced technology. After being warmly welcomed into the slave camp, the earthlings encourage and support a rebellion, and while Russell threatens to blow up the Stargate to prevent its use by enemy forces, the movie collapses into a senseless series of action scenes and grandiose explosions. It's all pretty ridiculous, but Stargate found a large and appreciative audience, spawned a cable-TV series, and continues to attract science fiction fans who are more than willing to forgive its considerable faults. --Jeff Shannon |

 Written on April 7, 2008 Summary: Bought the worng thing and happy I did I saw Star Gate on BluRay and thought it was the new movie. I've seen this one before but it was great on a 42" LCD with BluRay Written on April 6, 2008 Summary: BLU-RAY HD ROCKS!!! Watch this movie again for the first time in HD. You'll see scenes you didn't see before. The price is right at around $15.00. Highly recommended!!! Written on April 5, 2008 Summary: Prelude to a fantastic series If you are a sci-fi fan this movie is a great beginning to a fantastic series of adventure. After you have seen this movie you will naturally ask yourself what else is out there. From here you go to Stargate SG1... ten seasons of fascinating adventure with a wonderful cast. This movie stars Kurt Russell who can make you believe he can truly do anything that needs to be done. James Spader is also at his best. Even if you don't consider yourself a sci-fi fan you can enjoy this one... adventure at its best. Who knows... what may truly be out there somewhere. Written on March 26, 2008 Summary: Worth the Money I have the original Stargate on DVD, but had to get the High Def version. Wow! Am I glad that I did. It is crystal clear even on my 80" screen. Now that is a true test of a High Def DVD. It is spectacular. More than worth buying a second copy if you already have it in DVD. If not, then get it. Great movie, awesome music and a premise that has really come into being now that the 20 year Human Genome project has proven scientifically once and for all that we are not decendants of primates. Basically there is no possible genetic link between human beings & primates. Leaving only 2 possibilities of how we got here. Either God's creation or genes from aliens, hence, Stargate. Written on March 25, 2008 Summary: Great movie - who knew how far it would go? I have only two issues with this flick: Too much emphasis on character relations with less action, and the director/producer commentary. First, the dir/prod explain that they had a whole lot more dialog than in the movie that they cut out - saying that it was more important (to them) that the interaction of communication between the cultures(worlds) and breaking down the lanuage barrier was better served. I agree to a point, but this is about good against evil: action speaks louder than words. Secondly, the commentary is informative, but pretty annoying....(sorry, guys) - I especially didn't like the "....we had absolutely NOTHING to do with the TV series..." comment. They didn't elaborate. Aside from that, The movie frickin' rocks! Who knew it would spawn a 10 season TV series! (I think this is one of Spader's and Russell's best performances... very natural looking in their respective roles) |
