VHS Movie Reviews of Stargate SG-1 (Children of the Gods 1 and 2) [VHS]
Movie Review: A Must See for Late Comers
Summary: 3 Stars
Not everyone who loves Star Gate has watched it from the begining. If you're one of those late comers then this DVD is a must-see. It answers numerous questions of the who-how-whys behind the characters and especially the ever-mysterious Te'alc. While none of these episodes are ones you'll want to see more than once, everyone needs to see them at least once. 1) Children of the Gods, the made for TV pilot, brings back Daniel's wife Shar-rae and O'Neill's (with 2 L's) friend Scara, and sets the stage for the Daniel's constant search in later episodes for his lost wife.
2) The Enemy Within, answers more questions about the symbiote/host relationship.
3) Emancipation, a typical shallow 1st season episode, assumeably meant to build up Capt(Maj) Carter's character. Good casual watching & one of the rare episodes that is safe for younger viewers. Bonus points if you can identify the actor in this episode who later played a major voice character in a Disney animated classic.
Movie Review: A must for any Stargate Fan
Summary: 5 Stars
When I was first introduced to the TV show Stargate I had already seen, and fell in love with, the movie on which the series was based. However, coming in on the second season there were many question left in my mind, but my love for the movie extend to the TV hit.If you are like me, I highly recommend this title. Not only does answer some of the question I am sure you have had, but also provide an wonderful bridge between the movie and the series. If you only buy one DVD in the set, this is the one to buy.
Movie Review: Outstanding
Summary: 5 Stars
WaaawI am a big fan of Sci Fi and I must say that this DVD was above and beyond my expectations. Lot of action very well written stories and no waste of time, I mean some Sci Fi seriecs spend more than half of the time of the episode speaking about some feeling or personal changings or even love stories in between some of the characters with no action, while in Stare Gate one, those issues are blinded and mixed perfectlly in the story and not Just a waste of time
I have ordered Season 1 Vol. 1 and 2, and I could not sleep unti I finished them all,
Also I used to see some episodes of stargate sometiems on TV, but I had a million question on my mind, but this answered them all, for example I used to wonder how on earth Teal'c got to be on the group, and how come a supposingly "MILITARY" group is having two sientific minds on it and one of them is not a soldger? and alot of mroe but this DVD really answered every thing.
Movie Review: Filling in the gaps between movie & series
Summary: 4 Stars
Since I came late to the series, I decided to watch this movie in order to fill in the details between the original movie starring Kurt Russell, and the series. It does a terrific job introducing Capt/Maj Samantha Carter, explaining the return of Daniel Jackson, & developing the Jack O'Neal character. Of course being the pilot for a new series it ends with a cliff hanger that leaves you wanting more. But it doesn't develope Teal'c character or explain anything about him. In addition, it has inconsistancies with later episodes. In the final moments of the movie Teal'c explains to O'Neal that he's "carried a symbiot lifeform since he was a small boy." But in one of the episodes aired years later, Teal'c says the Goul'd murdered his wife & child when they enslaved him. As a movie it's great, but if you're looking to understand the story line of the series it won't help much. The VHS only has the pilot movie on it; to get the episodes you'll have to watch the DVD version. Wish someone had told me that before wasted my time & money with the VHS.
Movie Review: If you missed the beginning, get this!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was a latecomer to the Stargate SG-1 series, and seeing the pilot and first two episoldes explained a lot to me. This was a great DVD! Because I missed the beginning, I didnt understand some of the references -- such as the references to Kowalski or O'Neal's wife/son in later episodes. It also explained how he Jafar fit into the picture -- I always wondered why they were not Gau'uld (don't know if I spelled that right) warlords as well. The inital story was fascinating, and gave me the "story behind the story", some of which I had put together on my own, but this filled in the gaps. Over time, I can see that the series has maintained its quality promised in the pilot -- good plots, solid acting, well written dialogue and good special effects.
