Amazon.co.uk Review
A feature-length adventure that bases itself around the universe of Stargate SG-1, Continuum makes the most of the increased budget clearly available, and serves up a hugely enjoyable, action-packed slice of science-fiction that makes you wish they’d all hurry up and make the next instalment.
Stargate: Continuum follows on from the earlier feature-length The Ark Of Truth, and it focuses on a staple storyline of science fiction television, the alternate timeline. In this instance, it’s an Earth where the Stargate simply hasn’t been discovered, and nobody has any knowledge of the crew’s adventures.
Wisely using this story mechanic as a basis rather than the main thrust of Stargate: Continuum, the action soon focuses on a well-realised attempt by the Ba’al to conquer Earth. It’s exciting stuff, and while the credits arguably roll a little too early, it’s very welcome work from the SG-1 favourites that builds up to a strong outing for all concerned. And in the midst of them is the returning Richard Dean Anderson as O’Neill, and very welcome he is too.
Stargate: Continuum makes good use of both the extended running time that a feature offers, as well as the extra resources that were clearly available in front of and behind the camera. It’s inevitably going to be enjoyed most of all by SG-1’s fanbase, but there’s plenty in here too for the casual science-fiction enthusiast. --Jon Foster

As a fan of the SG1 series I loved this film. It cleverly brings back all the old adversaries and SG1 are once again having to pull out all the stops to save Earth and the Universe.
Hope they do another.....Please!!

I thought this film was beautifully shot in classic Stargate SG-1 style, I think the only comparison was the season finale of Season 7 regarding Special effects. The comedy and the banter among the characters kept your interest and the Special effects were simply amazing.
Overall I thought it could have been longer, and felt it should have been, I think the Directors Cut will be a must buy.
I feel this will be an enjoyable experience for Stargate fans.
I must warn you that some characters tend to swear somewhat in this film. I would watch this before leaving your children watch it to make sure it is ok.

Having just watched this, I absolutely loved this movie. The SG1 guys are back to the really good storylines. I would urge all fans of Stargate to buy this DVD, as the continued production of these straight to DVD stories is contingent on DVD sale figures. Here's to more great DVDs

Very enjoyable
As a great fan of the Stargate SG1 series, this was excellent. A great shame that the actor Don S. Davis actually died a couple of months before this was released.

Stargate Continuum - Great Movie
An excellent addition to the SG1 saga, this time-travelling storyline will have your mind still trying to grasp what happened well after the movie is finished. Worth seeing.

Continuum
Like an episode of the Stargate series but twice as long. I think it was ok.

On the Baal
The problem that often arises with time travel is paradoxes and this only downside of this Stargate SG1 outing is a final plot hole that is never fully explained. Read more

Ba'al's swansong
`Continuum' is the second of the Stargate SG-1 TV movies and I feel it is far superior to `The Ark of Truth'. Read more
