An interesting film, Its spinoff series going on to become one of the longest running science-fiction series ever created. While I found the film to be enjoyable with an interesting concept I felt it to be lacking in some areas. While not crucial to the television series Stargate SG-1 it is a film every "Gater" will enjoy.

SG-1 is much better than the movie. This movie you watch for the backstory; and then you don't watch it again.

This is a great movie. Roland Emmerich's best, which isn't saying much. It's definitely good for repeat viewings, the story-line and characters are fleshed out very well, the cinematography is great, the special effects hold up really well, the music is fantastic. You also see how the camaraderie and humor got started that you see later in SG-1 started. I would not have been angry had French Stewart had a recurring character on SG-1. Unfortunately, he did that awful third rock show.
