I don't know what to say about this. Every single plot line is terrible, the production is laughable, the directing is bad and 1/2 of the actors suck. Jack and Hammond are missing. Oh, the prison scene with Priors is good and maybe... the opening 3 minutes... these are watch-able. Avoid the rest. Only for die hard fans.
... View MoreI took the time to watch The Arc of Truth a while back and couldn't watch more than a little less than a half an hour of it. The acting was practically non existent.As for the plot line, it seemed interesting enough and I was beginning to get drawn into it... but once I saw the main actors interacting for the first time, I pretty much gave up on the film itself.The secondary actors did a better job than the primary ones did. Both the lines and any jokes that the main characters said fell flat. I don't know why they (the main actors) didn't even bother to show up, so to speak, acting wise, in this entry. It's a real shame, because I was really looking forward to watching this originally.Overall this movie isn't worth the watch, in my opinion.Continuum is the better movie out of the two overall.

Suddenly the SG-1 find themselves fighting on several fronts, enemies both external and internal. The team is divided, an away-team trapped on a hostile planet searching for the artifact while the others stay behind on their ship Odyssey, that is under heavy fire from several Ori ships and risk to be overrun by replicators.Comments: A movie for the followers of the Stargate-series, or at least for those familiar to that universe. It follows and builds upon the series, using elements from that series. Actually it is very much an extended episode of the series, not differing much in either quality nor idea. So, if you like me enjoy the series you will most probably enjoy the movie as well even if it is far from being anything worth getting very excited about. Actually the budget seem also to be the same as of one episode so effects are used surprisingly sparse. I had expected more, I got the feeling it was a little diluted.Unfortunately, leading characters, most notably Colonel O'Neill, that started the series has trailed off and does not appear in this movie. The replacements are okay, but doesn't have the ability to lift the series as Richard Dean Anderson could.So, this is essentially a movie for those already following the series, it won't convince anyone new, as it is mostly average.5/10
... View MoreArk of Truth was a decent conclusion to season 10, but it was quite scatter-shot in the writing. I am a long time fan of SG1, but i felt cheated by this "movie".Why oh why bring back the relicaaatoooorsss, as Thor would say. When that scene played out when they were reveled, I sad to myself, OH NO...Please no more.The epic battle of Ancient/Ori just another light show like the " death of Anubus" Cookies and a kiss???? really??? Thought Carter and ONeall had hooked up by now. Jack should kick Cam's butt for that, but he was smart enough to stay away from this "mission"All in all, I really wish I had just rented this extended episode. I complain about movie ticket prices, yet i paid twice that amount for a DVD I will probably never watch again.
