STARGATE is the freaking greatest TV-series I've seen my whole life.It all started when a friend of mine forced me to watch two episodes with him. It was actually interesting :)Within the following 3 months I had bought and seen all of Stargate up to date. 10 seasons of Stargate SG-1 containing 214 episodes, 5 seasons of Stargate Atlantis containing 100 episodes and 2 seasons of Stargate Universe.Besides that I've seen the two Stargate movies: Stargate: Continuum and Stargate: The Ark of TruthWell, my point is that this is a freaking awesome TV-series. Worth watching! Maybe you shouldn't do it like me(watching 16 seasons and 2 movies within 3 months), but at least watch it:) Its so damn worth it.
... View MoreO'Neill (Richard Dean Anderson) and SG1 Tealc (Christopher Judge), Vala (Claudia Black), Samantha Carter (Amanda Tapping), Daniel Jackson (Michael Shanks), and Cameron Mitchell (Ben Browder) go to witness the last Ba'al clone extracted from his host. Vala disappears and then Teal'c among others. O'Neill is killed and the rest of SG1 escape back through the gate. In 1939, a ship carrying a Stargate gets invaded by Ba'al and his men. When Carter, Jackson and Mitchell re-emerge, they find themselves in that ship frozen in the modern Arctic. It turns out that it's the ship that was suppose to carry the first Stargate from Egypt to America. They are rescued by the alternate O'Neill. The government decides to scatter the three and find the Stargate in Anarctica without them. A year later, the Gouald under Ba'al attacks and the government recalls them for help.It takes awhile to get going. It's the try and true sci-fi premise of time travel. It is done well. It's got good action. It's got the characters fans love. Overall, fans who follow the TV show will love this movie. Everybody else will have problem following it.
... View MoreI didn't go into watching this with any real expectations, like I did previously with The Arc of Truth. So once that was out of the way, I really liked this movie.The acting was a big step up, more like what the series was like. The jokes and lines that the main actors and the other actors delivered didn't fall flat. I was glad to see that, since I was so disappointed with that in the previous movie. It was a decent return to form.The cinematography was well shot and the soundtrack was pretty well done. Both of these things added to the overall feel of the movie.As for the plot, it was rather simple... but it was still good enough and kept me interested in watching the movie.I recommend this film over The Arc of Truth. It's worth the watch.
... View MoreBasicially this is what happens: Before his execution, one of Ba'als clones go back in time and sinks the boat that carried the Stargate to USA in 1939. Time thereby is changed and the team has to fix it, but is stopped by an alternate version of they're friends/colleagues who wants too keep everything the way it is. Meanwhile Ba'al has become supreme lord of the Goa'uld and plans to conquer earth.The movie is funny and entertaining, but like the majority of time travel films, it neither makes much sense and nothing of the story's events have actually ever happened when they "fix" everything in the end of the film. So it really is just a funny way to waste time.I'm a big fan of Stargate SG-1, but the film was very predictable and reminded me of a "back to the future" film. But I love the characters and the acting is great, so I still give it an 7.
