"One of the 50 Coolest Websites...they simply tell it like it is" - TIME
Stargate | 1994 | PG-13 | - 2.5.1
A scientist and an army colonel travel through time and space to unravel the origin of Egyptian civilization.
SEX/NUDITY 2 - No nudity. There is one scene of implied sex.
VIOLENCE/GORE 5 - There is little blood and gore. Marines are being knocked around and killed by a villain's henchmen. However, the scene is dark and quick, and it is difficult to see what's happening. One character is shot and another is beaten. A man is punished by electrocution: he goes into convulsions and dies. People running on the ground are shown being shot by enemy aircraft. A man is killed during a fist fight, and there is a little blood. A man is blown up and he's shown burning and melting.
LANGUAGE 1 - Just some insults.
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Slavery, alien life-forms, the scientific vs. the military agenda, time and space travel.
MESSAGE - History is not always correct.
CAVEATS
Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.
We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.
Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
