Trivialidades:

The language spoken by the older archeologists at the Egyptian dig site when the Stargate is found is poorly-pronounced Norwegian: "Herregud, vad är det?" (Oh my God, what is that?), while the younger archeologist replies in Swedish, "Jag önskar jag visste det" (I wish I knew).

Errores:

Errores que Revelan: The three "moons of Abydos" seen above the pyramid are obviously images of Earth's moon, merely re-sized and rotated relative to each other.

Citas:

[correcting the translation from the cover stone]
Dr. Daniel Jackson: It's not "Door to Heaven"... is...

Dr. Daniel Jackson: Stargate.

Epic science fiction with its heart in the right place

"Stargate"'s an exciting, high concept science fiction film from Roland ("Independence Day") Emmerich. With a capable cast, solid script and excellent set design, this is a big-budget adventure for viewers looking for pure escapist fun.

The ever reliable Kurt Russell plays the square-jawed, world weary Jack O'Neil, who is responsible for leading the military mission to another world. James Spader plays the brilliant archaeologist, Dr. Daniel Jackson. At the time, this was a different type of role for Spader and he handles the humorous content of his scenes with great success.

There's also an appearance by "The Crying Game"'s Jaye Davidson as the evil baddie, Ra. Although Davidson's role is quite small, he brings an other-worldly presence to his part.

The score by David Arnold is excellent.

A great idea for a movie, I can't help but think the concept would have made a successful television series...
