Movie Reviews of Stargate (Extended Cut) [Blu-ray]
Movie Review: Good film, but - I got a defective CD - Artisan Ultimate Edition
Summary: 4 Stars
The original Stargate. Even more appreciated now that Kurt Russell is no longer with us. Superb work by an early James Spader (the independent thinking attorney in Boston Legal). Unfortunately, the second layer of my Artisan Ultimate Edition DVD is defective - all audio/video is erratic and pixelated after the layer switch at 1:22:18, all the way to the end. Please note that Amazon has compensated me for this defective DVD. I would recommend to any si-fi enthusiast. Good acting, direction and cinematography, excellent big production quality (the special effects still hold up well), and the story line is entertaining.
Summary of Stargate (Extended Cut) [Blu-ray]
A POLICE DETECTIVE IS IN CHARGE OF THE INVESTIGATION OF A BRUTALMURDER, IN WHICH A BEAUTIFUL AND SEDUCTIVE WOMAN COULD BE INVOLVED.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
