 Borrow, don't buy! October 31, 2008
A very predictable thrown-together movie to make a few more bucks from an otherwise outstanding series. Better than "Ark of Truth",but not much.
 disappointed October 30, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I read all those wonderful reviews and then watched the film. I was disappointed and felt like another reviewer - let down.
I have been a Stargate SG1 and Stargate Alantis fan for years. It was cool to see them together for a brief few moments but then it turned out to be another episode. Where was the originality, the interaction, the character development? This movie could have rocked the house instead I went and made dinner. Returning to realize I didn't need to rewind. Admittedly, I did rewind the first time but then didn't bother for the second and third. I was getting bored.
I wish it was more and I think the disappointment was in I expected it to be more than just another episode. Everything was so predictable - a cash cow.
I am so glad I rented. I won't waste my money.
 mmmk ok October 24, 2008
was delivered fast but looked like someone put the plastic on halfass, almost as if it was viewed first.
 Great science fiction, great movie. October 23, 2008
This movie is a perfect bookend to the stargate saga, although of course the future is open for a continuing of the story.
Production values are excellent. Scenes hinted at in previous episodes regarding a massive invasion of earth by space are finally seen, and they do an excellent job of portraying earth under attack by space.
Virtually every old enemy re-surfaces in the movie due to the altered timeline story, and it is refreshing to see the familiar 'baddie' characters reprising these roles, even if only briefly.
You'll appreciate this movie the most if you see it after watching the main stargate series, obviously. But the pacing, the interesting story, great special effects, and the excellent performance by Cliff Simon as Baal really make this a wonderful science fiction production in general.
I look forward to future releases and the continuing of the stargate story in this and other media.
 Great Yarn, But So-So Transfer October 22, 2008
This is a way beyond average SG1 episode that asks all the questions an audience might ask, but it throws them back at the audience and then proceeds to go on with a quick-paced adventure that is more cerebral than the typical machine gun, staff-weapon blasting stuff. And though the movie is theater-quality production, the hi-def transfer is definitely low tier. Dark areas are grainy and many shots are less than clear. It's also worth a pause when Daniel Jackson looks at the back cover of a book he published in the alternative timeline. Clearly no one thought anyone would do it as no care is made in the editing or writing of text.
The movie's worth buying, but I wish the transfer had been better.
