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

Synopsis
This second feature-length film based in the STARGATE SG-1 universe, a follow-up to STARGATE - THE ARK THE TRUTH, finds the SG-1 crew attending the execution of the nefarious Ba'al, the supposed final System Lord of the galaxies-spanning dominant alien race Goa'uld. When Teal'c and Vala suddenly evaporate into thin air, however, the rest of the crew heads back to Earth as quickly as possible in hopes to get to the bottom of their bizarre disappearances. What they find is worse than they could have ever imagined. A world in which the Stargate was never discovered awaits them, thus negating much of their own history and personal pasts. Before they can convince the military that not only did this time-tampering occur, but that it is the handiwork of Ba'al, hundreds of Go'uld ships line Earth's orbit. It's up to Maj. Gen. Jack O'Neill (MACGYVER's Richard Dean Anderson) and the rest of crew to set things right before Ba'al conquers the world in this thrilling time-travel adventure featuring a cadre of beloved characters.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good end to the SG-1 Series, 8 Jul 2008
By J.S. "J.S." (Cork, Ireland) - See all my reviews
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better Than The Ark of Truth, 13 Jul 2008
By Ivor Geoghegan (Galway, Ireland) - See all my reviews
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

4.0 out of 5 stars Stargate Continuum - A Great Film with one tiny Flaw, 17 Jul 2008
By Martin "Martin IK Kelly" (Basingstoke, Hampshire, UK) - See all my reviews
A Brilliant Film (This could have performed well at theaters if MGM and 20th Century Fox were'nt Tight Gits) but the only problem i have in it is that the return of Jack O'Neill seems a bit less excitable then we all hoped it would be.

First when they attend Baal's execution he is Stabbed in the Heart and has a fleeting 5 Minute Appearance in Antartica and is not seen again until the end of the film. I Know it seems rude but they made a big hoo-ha of it (Even the Cover says "Special Guest Star RICHARD DEAN ANDERSON") that The O'Neill man gets to do very little except give out some snappy one liners.

But Appart from RDA's Lack of Screen Time in SG:C it is well worth the watch to see how they can fix the timeline.

Bring on Stargate DVD-Movie 3.
