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

Comparison between DVD and Bluray November 23, 2008
I own this both on DVD and this bluray. Some scenes are noticeably crisper. Other scenes suffer from granularity due to the low exposure and light levels in many of the scenes in this film.

I liked this movie so much, I bought it. The name of this movie
is "Stargate". Excellent.
WE cant watch it on our TV November 22, 2008

The 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.
Great Movie November 18, 2008

Get the movie and then buy every season of Stargate SG-1. It's worth it!
 Blu-ray version is defective and LionsGate won't replace it November 17, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Search 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.
