VHS Movie Reviews of Stargate [VHS]Movie Review: It's a movie all right. Summary: 2 StarsHave you seen the movie? Good, because as far as I can find, there is no way to watch this and know what the aliens are saying without subtitles, and when the subtitles are on, it's on for those speaking english as well. I have to say that I found this incredibly annoying and am fairly upset that this copy was like that, even my VHS copy didn't play it that way.
Movie Review: BLU-RAY review Summary: 2 StarsThe Stargate Blu-Ray does not look good at all. I would only buy this on Blu-Ray if you do not own it on any other version, as it is only $10.
Movie Review: Why do we spend so much money on a product of low quality? Summary: 1 StarsI had the Special Edition of this movie for quite sometime until the Ultimate Edition came about some years ago. I exchanged it and was able to compare the two pictures. The picture quality of the ULTIMATE was way too much better. Unfurtunately the ULTIMATE EDITION has a burnt piece of frame in a place the Special Edition hasn't. When James Spader is watching the dunes when they arrive at the New Planet. This is totally unacceptable. It's the same as buying the 2nd Platinum Edition of SNOW WHITE and discover there are dirt and debris on some frames just to annoy us, the consumer.
Movie Review: WARNING!! Summary: 1 StarsAmazon.com should make it more clear, that this is not the standard "Ultimate Edition" but the Ultimate Edition (version 2). These are not the same sets. Even though reviews and images posted are of the original... THIS IS NOT IT.
The V.2 does not come with the original theatrical version, and is just the "Extended Cut". On top of that the transfer is so poor, you have a better chance of seeing a higher quality version taped off of a television broadcast from 15 years ago. The picture is excessively grainy, blurry in most spots, and the colors are faded or washed out.
This belongs in a dollar DVD bin. I thought that for less than[..] on sale, I was getting a bargain... now I feel ripped off. While it may cost close to your standard video rental, it will be watched fewer times. It's truly sad that such a magnificent movie can't ever be viewed again how it was originally intended to be seen.
My advice... Avoid all Artisan Entertainment products until they can figure out how a movie is meant to be watched.
Movie Review: Very pleased Summary: 5 StarsI got my video right away, and was very pleased. I am a stargate fan and will be buying more videos.
Summary of Stargate [VHS]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
