Editorial Review: Product Description: Studio: Lions Gate Home Ent. Release Date: 01/08/2008 Run time: 21 minutes Rating: R Amazon.com: 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 Average Rating:
 Rating: - WE cant watch it on our TVThe quality is good but we live in Australia and our problem is that we can only watch the DVD's on our computer as they won't play on our DVD and TV. There must be something wrong with the formatting or something, but we can watch them on the computer which is ok but disappointing. Rating:  - Great MovieGet the movie and then buy every season of Stargate SG-1. It's worth it! Rating:  - Blu-ray version is defective and LionsGate won't replace itSearch the Internet and you'll find out this Blu-ray version has at least two defects; missing Egyptian and alien subtitles, and right half of main menu doesn't work (you can still change audio and commentary other ways, but I can't get to the THX demo or setup. Don't buy any Blu-ray titles produced by LionsGate. They're not honest businessmen. Rating: - Blu-ray - HD - Standard DVDI bought HD as the in coming standard, it wasn't. Bought a Blu-ray player to keep up. I have a standard DVD copy of "Stargate", so I knew a Blu-ray copy would have something to equal. Blu-ray quality is noticeably better, volume is some what lower (on my system) than the up-converted standard DVD. Now we need some high quality movies on blu-ray. (I don't care for old comic book hero movies, out grew them 40 years ago.) Special effect are great and ad a lot to a movie, but if all the movie has ... Read More Rating: - Original story, still stands up todayI saw this film in theaters years ago, and just viewed it on BD. The story includes all of the elements that make an interesting sci-fi flick, and it includes a dash of romance. The storyline of the "passageway" between dimensions is not unique, but since the film was released several years ago, I would need to say that it still stands up today in terms of relevance. It manages to be a sci-fi film, while still focusing on the core concept, which is not really laden with special effects, ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
