VHS Movie Reviews of Stargate [VHS]
Movie Review: Picture Quality is Horrible
Summary: 1 Stars
Waste of money for the blue ray version, Will never by anything with lions gate on it againMovie Review: Good movie, blu-ray pointless
Summary: 4 Stars
This is another movie where it's pointless to have it out on blu-ray. It wasn't meant for that format.
Good movie though. Crappy TV show, but good movie.
Thank you.
Movie Review: A great beginning
Summary: 5 Stars
A wonderful start to a great franchise. I love this movie, and when I purchased the 10 complete series of Stargate SG-1 I had to buy this to kick it off. For under $7 it is a great price for a great film, and will help complete your collection of Stargate material, if you do not own it already.Movie Review: Not A good blu-ray.
Summary: 1 Stars
This is a review of the blu-ray version, not the movie itself.
If you already own the DVD version of this? Don't even think about buying this one.
Why?
Because its not a very good HD conversion. Way to grainy and dark and colorless.
My dvd version actually looks better than this one on the 55 inch lcd.
This version has horrible picture quality, even at the sub 8 price I paid, I feel I got ripped off.
Off all the blurays I have purchased , this is by far the worse transfer I have ever see.
Save your money and wait till they do a real HD transfer.
Movie Review: Amazon Description Wrong
Summary: 5 Stars
I don't know where Amazon got their description of this movie from, but it's completely wrong:
Product Description
A POLICE DETECTIVE IS IN CHARGE OF THE INVESTIGATION OF A BRUTALMURDER, IN WHICH A BEAUTIFUL AND SEDUCTIVE WOMAN COULD BE INVOLVED.
That has nothing to do with Stargate. Also, their reviewer seems not be a science fiction fan, using phrases like 'hokey hit', 'senseless series of action scenes', and 'pretty ridiculous'. He obvious doesn't know what he's talking about, since it spawned the single longest running science fiction show in history. It's an interesting premise with a new collection of technology from the warp drive and blasters we're all used to. Well worth a viewing.
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 ShannonGeneral Video
