Blasting off where the Sci-Fi Channelâ??s longest running show, Stargate SG-1, left off, this thrilling feature thrusts the Stargate team â?" Daniel Jackson (Michael Shanks), Vala (Claudia Black), Tealâ??c (Christopher Judge), Sam (Amanda Tapping) and Cam (Ben Browder) â?" into their biggest challenge yet. In search of an Ancient artifact they hope can defeat the oppressive Ori, the team not only learns that the Ori are set to launch a final assault on Earth, but a double-crossing I.O. operative is aboard the Odyssey! Also starring Beau Bridges, this pulse-pounder is loaded with enough suspense, humor and action to fill a galaxy!

Why end the series? , November, 12, 2008

This was a nice enough continuation of the series but seems to lack some of the polish one would equate with a film. Granted there is more time designated for plot evolution and a bigger budget for effects but it lacked the 'wow' factor.

That said, I enjoyed the plot, the effects, the fact there weren't commercials and that Jack O'Neill was back with the group (you can't ever have enough pithy humor or cake!). It was well worth the cost of admission for a dedicated SG1 fan.

 

Like A Good Extended Episode of SG1- Recommended! , November, 07, 2008

"Stargate - Ark of Truth" feels like an extended episode of Stargate SG1, wrapping up the plot line of what some folks have called "The Ori Quagmire".

No spoilers from me, but you get pretty much what is expected including great special effects, a lot of action, close calls, and Teal'c being ever so... well Teal'c like :-)

It is a good wrap-up to the outstanding series Stargate SG-1 - The Complete Series Collection, and I also recommend Stargate: Continuum for those that want a little more.

Highly recommended for Stargate SG1 fans!

 

Close, but not quite there , November, 06, 2008

This movie is a good fix for a Star Gate junkie like myself. I've enjoyed Stargate SG-1 since very early on. I didn't find this movie very compelling. The story line was good, but not that good. It was in may ways predictable. It had a few surprises. The special effects were very good, but the storyline itself wasn't that great to me. I like Continuum much better than this movie. Do I think it is a worthwhile addition to my SG-1 collection - absolutely - they had me at the opening lines!
