 GREAT MOVIE October 4, 2008
I INJOYED THIS MOVIE OF STAR GATE SG1 THIS SHOW WAS GREAT AND STILL IS INJOY THE SHOW..DANNY
Never a Stargate around when you need one October 1, 2008
Unlike Ark of Truth, which hurried to wrap up the SG-1 storyline with a nice little bow, Continuum doesn't have any more of those condensed mini-storylines that we love so much (or not). The trade-off is that its is basically a giant time travel episode that gets erased from existence by the end. Naturally, since this is an SG-1 reunion, the Goa'uld are back. Not that I'm complaining, but after the Ori (a pale imitation of the Goa'uld, but at least they had a justification for their evil), the egomaniacal Goa'uld seem like a step back. I think Ark of Truth is a better 'cap' to the series.
The high point of the movie is Carter, Jackson, and Mitchell's struggles to adapt to the unfriendly new Earth. I liked all the 'alt universe' versions of the team, particularly "Mirror" Teal'c. Despite the shiny new Ba'al insignia on his forehead, he's the most sensible guy among Ba'al's underhanded, sucker-punching cohorts. Proving once again that the "good" General Landry is a exception to the rule (see s.10 ep "Road Not Taken"), "Mirror" Landry is such a jerk that I half-expected him to turn out to be a Goa'uld, which actually would have been really cool; Alas, no such luck. Vala Mal Doran has an interesting turn as her Goa'uld counterpart, Quetesh, who makes for a crafty (if one-dimensional) villainess. It's too bad the Goa'uld voice-distortion effect disguises her voice, because it would be interesting to see how Claudia Black speaks with a evil personality.
Unfortunately, story dictates that our heroes spend almost the entire movie without their outer space weapons, tricked-out gear, or even a titular stargate. To be honest, it seems a little (forgive the term) alien.
