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

The film opens with the discovery of a circular device and the fossilized ... Read More

I have always been a big fan of the film. They also did a lot of good things with the TV series as well, but they still couldn't measure up to the film. One of the reasons why the film is better than SG-1 is the actors. Kurt Russell and James Spader were always one of my favorite actors out there. Richard Dean Anderson and Michal Shanks are good too, but they couldn't measure up to Russell and Spader. Also there are a lot of continuity errors in SG-1 and Atlantis considering they were supposed to be continuations ... Read More

The "Extended Cut" blu-ray turned out to actually be of less visual quality than the "Ultimate" version on DVD. It also has a very annoying security feature that tells me that I am infringing on the copyright when I try to play it though the Panasonic BD-55 to display on Vizio plasma TV without any other device between the player and the set. I examined the BD via my PC and there was no copyright issue at all, which is absurd when you have a BD burner in the system.
Yes, it is a movie that requires a ... Read More
