 - loved it!This was classic SG-1! What a fun, thrill ride this film was! I loved every minute of this and it was like watching early season SG-1 when it was at its height. A fun time travel story that was very well written. Rating: - Wow, like watching the earlier seasonsI bought the Ark but wasn't thrilled over it. However, Continuum was fantastic. It brings back memories of the earlier seasons of SG1. I think the G'ould were the best of nemesis verses the Ori. The Ori, it was too forced. The G'ould history was inter-woven with Earth's history, which made for a better, more relateable enemy. I'm glad THEY made the Continuum. And if you haven't seen the two behind the scenes (making-of), I loved those too! Rating: - Good to goGood movie. Better than the Ark of Truth. Some critics say it hurried at the end - I'm not sure of that. I mean I hate Star Trek Next Generation because of the hurried, jump-ahead endings that left a lot of info out. I did not have that feeling at all with this movie. It would have been great if they threw in an appearance of the Russian commander that were in earlier StarGate episodes. Also, I wish Jack had a little more animosity towards Ball - after all, he did torture him more than any human ever (previous episodes). And in fact, after the torture episode is when Jack became more sarcastic. The writers probably did not even realize the timing of this slight character change. Jack is, through his sarcasm, still no doubt hiding the psycological pain of the torture Ball inflicted on him. Ok enough of that... It is still a very good moive. Rating:  - Stargate: The ReviewSlow at times, but overall an excellent and fun addition to the Stargate story. Over the years I've thoroughly enjoyed any episode that deals with using the gate for other purposes than just "going off-world" - intentionally or unintentionally. The way this story happened - as a result of Ba'al trying to manipulate an entire galaxy just to save himself from being destroyed (how self-absorbed the Goau'ld can be) - seemed very in-line with the Stargate universe and a natural adventure SG-1 would have. I like the treat at the end with the picture in the locker. From a strictly "Amazon.com purchaser" perspective, I pre-ordered the item and it arrived within 24-hours, even with 2-day shipping. Package was whole and unspoiled (no shipping mishaps) when it was delivered. Rating: - Stargate: Continuum DVDDVD was in great shape, arrived with in expected time, and a very good movie.
