Stargate (Ultimate Edition-Dts)
In this visually creative space adventure from the team that would go on to give the world INDEPENDENCE DAY and GODZILLA, a timid, glasses-wearing Egyptologist (James Spader) uncovers an ancient portal to another planet and is dispatched there forthwith--along with blundering, clodfooted government troops (led by Kurt Russell).
The downtrodden populace they encounter, ruled by godlike, androgynous King Ra (Jaye Davidson, in his first role after becoming a star in THE CRYING GAME), must be led to literacy and freedom; Ra must be defeated; the intellectual must find his machismo; and our boys must return to Earth.
"Interesting odyssey, impressively mounted and jammed with visual effects. . . . . . Leonard Maltin
"The effects conjured up...are inventive, often even thrilling." . . . . . Hal Hinson, The Washington Post
"Think Star Wars meets Ben-Hur." . . . . . Chris Hicks, Deseret News
