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

 A good end to the SG-1 Series July 8, 2008
22 out of 23 found this review helpful
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.
Better Than The Ark of Truth July 13, 2008

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
Jack's Back! Classic Stargate.. August 7, 2008

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!!
At last Stargate Continuum August 18, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Since Season 10 ended I have been waiting for this film and it has not been a disappointment. It is a classic SG1 storyline, just a lot longer,which is not at all a bad thing. When I first heard of the time travel storyline, I was worried that it wouldn't be different enough from the Season 8 finale. I needn't have worried though. It was done in a totally different way and had a totally different feel to it and I felt there was nothing at all like before.
As another reviewer said, I was dissappointed at Richard Dean Andersons appearance, because the magazine gave it big hype and I expected that O'Neill would be involved in some major event, but in total he wasn't in the film that much.
Overall I enjoyed this film a lot and believe it could have done well in the cinemas as it was a film with an excellent storyline, likeable characters and brilliant special effects!
Stargate in the Arctic! August 24, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
After years of running round the same forest we actually get to see some of SG-1 in one of the least accessible places on Earth - the Arctic. Not only that but the US Navy actually lent one of their real submarines to the shoot, making the loan of two fighter jets by the US Air Force almost seem small in comparison. I could go on about the sheer number of guest appearances in this film, and the fact that it's got Ba'al in the lead villain role, and he's probably the most popular Stargate villain ever... But the most important thing is that it is a great SG-1 story, on a much larger scale than we've ever seen before. Well worth the money, even if you've seen it on TV (it has a very good set of extra features, including a long look at the Arctic shoot and the Navy sub).
Oh, and if you're a parent worried about what the reviewer concerned about the "swearing" said, then I'd be more concerned with the couple of scenes involving a very sharp sword than a couple of uses of the "s-word". If you're that concerned, buy them Stargate Infinity - Vol 1 instead.
