From Amazon.com:
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

Chevron 7 locked. Come with me through the Stargate, anywhere, any era, any genre ! This movie was the beginning, a new concept and story, fun and hidden taunts at social mores, which eventually extended into TV as SG-1, & Atlantis. The Ultimate Version seemed to make a little more sense than the original flick, but then hindsight is always 20-20 ! Daniel Jackson is a different type of Nerd, but 'makes good' in this star-breaking introduction. Sci-Fi concepts are often novel and mostly plausible extensions of current scientific options or opinions, and for the touchy-feelies out there, just enough boy-girl frames to fill the gap !

Oh Dear.
One of my favorite films and I was very disappointed. I wasn't too upset that there was no extras other than a commentry and previews of up coming Lionsgate Blu ray releases.
Picture quality was poor and grainy, although on close up's quite detailed. Sound wise very good presented in DTS HD and Dolby 5.1 EX.
If you like the film I would suggest you buy the region 1 Artisan ultimate edition which has remastered Theatrical and Directors cuts, as well as 2 featurettes and DTS 6.1 ES.

I really loved this movie, have it on dvd... thought I would get it on blu-ray to really saver the experience of a fantastic movie. BUT the reproduction of the movie onto blu-ray is dreadful, grainy and very very poor. If you need any advice before purchuseing this title. then take this advise "DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY,STICK WITH YOUR DVD VISION" because that is all it is wrapped in a blu-ray box.

Hadn't seen this one in a long time, although I am a huge fan of both the Stargate series. Amazing how Michael Shanks reprised the role of Daniel Jackson so well! Would recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it or hasn't seen it in a while.
