Stargate - The Ark of Truth

I'm a great SG-1 fan and have everything from the Role-playing game to all ten seasons. Unfortunately I was very disappointed in the Ark of Truth. There was nothing new. Nothing even creative. The worst part for me was bringing back the Replicators. These creatures were already beat to death and here they served only as a means to give SG-1 something to blow up.

The main characters had virtually nothing to do in the movie. Sam spent her time blowing stuff up. Tilk, nothing but looking tough. Daniel, Vala...bit parts while special affects and the ancients saved the day. As a collector of SG-1 stuff I had to purchase it. As a movie...well, it's a pretty lame attempt to recreate the glory times of the series.

There was a danger that this would just be a shaky and rather resentful attempt at tying up loose ends: not at all! This movie shows how much mileage there is left in the Stargate story - and, I am afraid to say, the lack of vision that lead to the series being dropped.

Awesome movie! If you've never watched Stargate though, don't start with this. Go back and watch the SG-1 seasons first.

this was like watching the series. it get better everytime i see stargate.
i am so glad that they have movies to get my fix of stargate. i was sad when they ended the series but the movies just pick up where the series left off. lots of action and everything. great job stargate

numerous others have already pointed out all the tired and cliche and done to death aspects of the so called "plot" of this movie, and after watching it and reading that I was not alone in my thoughts about my wasted time I have to ask: why bother? all they did was reheat an old enemy and then hit the "done" button at the end of the movie, if they were going this route why not just use the Time machine reset button? pull out the Time machine you know they still have locked away in the basement, fly back to the beginning of season 9 and take away the Ancient communication device, this way when SG1 finds the Ancient treasure trove, they don't accidentally contact the Ori and life goes on happy and prosperous. simplistic and boring to watch but then again thats what we got anyway and my idea would have only wasted at most 10 minutes of your life instead of well over an hour.
