2/4
"A load of gibberish."
Film Freak Central
Bill Chambers
3.5/5
"Still, this is a decent little diversion, the kind of pure popcorn fodder that would find a far more ballsy form when Will Smith took on city-sized flying saucers in
Independence Day
."
PopMatters
Bill Gibron
B+
"Has matured wonderfully, sustaining as a curious genre exercise in blockbuster yearn marked by surprising buoyancy, madly entertaining performances, and a fertile cinematic imagination behind the camera not yet corrupted by massive box office success."

"A matinee movie for the kids and little else."

James O'Ehley
6/10
"...an encouraging premise, good special effects, excellent sound, and one of the dumbest payoffs in big-budget film history."
DVDTown.com
John J. Puccio
"What starts out as not the same-old, same-old sci-fi quickly degenerates into the same-old, same-old action-movie gunplay, and all the potentially interesting ideas the film introduces end up virtually unexplored."
Flick Filosopher
MaryAnn Johanson
3/5
"The main problem with
Stargate
is not with set-up, but with execution. After a while you feel like you're just watching weird people staggering around a desert."
