If Continuum, the second feature length, made-for-DVD film spun off from the long-running Stargate SG-1 television series, marks the end of this wing of the franchise--and it is hardly a certainty, given the show's Lazarus-like history--then all involved, including the viewer, should be well satisfied. Continuum commingles all the elements that have made Stargate so eminently watchable over the years, including engaging characters and storyline, plenty of action, impressive sets, and first-rate special effects. This time the whole gang is on hand, as the most recent SG-1 contigent (Ben Browder as fearless leader Lt. Col. Cameron Mitchell, Amanda Tapping as the brainy Lt. Col. Samantha Carter, Christopher Judge as the implacable alien Teal'c, Michael Shanks as the ever-resourceful Dr. Daniel Jackson, and Claudia Black as the irreverent, motor-mouthed Vala) is joined by characters whose roles had been reduced or eliminated along the way; principal among the latter is Richard Dean Anderson, whose Major General Jack O'Neill makes a welcome return after sitting out The Ark of Truth, the first post-series film (both of Stargate Command's head honchos, played by Beau Bridges and the late Don S. Davis, are also back). The villain is familiar as well: Ba'al (Cliff Simon), the last of the "Goa'uld system lords," who's scheduled to be executed--or, more specifically, "extracted," whereby the bad mojo inside him will be exorcised. Things don't quite go as planned, of course. Ba'al has managed to manipulate time, creating a situation where Mitchell, Jackson, and Carter find themselves caught in a paradox, an alternate timeline in which the Stargate program never even existed, making it easy for the bad guy and his gigantic space brigade to launch an all-out attack on Earth (though long-threatened throughout the series, such an invasion never actually happened until now). Our heroes' intrepid efforts to thwart Ba'al's dastardly scheme take them from the Arctic (for real) to the cockpits of F-15 jets and even the hold of a 1930s cargo ship (built specially for the occasion). All this, and Browder portraying his own grandfather too? Yo, Stargate: Continuum rocks! --Sam Graham

 fantastic! August 29, 2008
This video pretty much captured the essence of what the Stargate SG-1 TV series was all about. I thought it was great! I liked that it was a one shot story that you didn't have to go back and remember what it was referring to. Don't get me wrong, I liked Ark of Truth a lot.
Continuum was just plain fun. Which is what I loved about SG-1. The reason I gave it four instead of 5 stars is because the whole going back and changing the time line thing's been done almost to death. Though they did manage to portray the characters as outside of time in a fresh way. Aw, what the hell. I'll give it the fifth star.
If you're a fan of the series - BUY IT! You won't regret it. If you're not a fan, well, times a wastin' and you'd better get caught up. 'Cause you will be a fan.
Buy this video!!!
Oh, and buy anything that has to do with Firefly.
It's great to have SGC Back August 28, 2008
I hope we'll see more of this mini movies, though it seems for a story like that, a 4 hours movie could have been better. Yet, it's a fantastic storyline, exploring new ways allowing us however to see all of our favorite teams seens over the years while the show was on.
None stop action with a twist August 28, 2008
From the opening scene, until you realize the movie is already over, this is a great film. Very well done, and worthy of having in a collection for Stargate SG1 junkies!
Outstanding August 28, 2008
Even for someone who wasn't a huge fan of the show, this movie is a must see. Clever story, great flick!
great item August 28, 2008
SG1 Continuum, is a great movie. The CGI is flawless and over all a great movie. I hope it isn't the last MGM does.
