An alien similar to Ra appears out of the Stargate, killing five soldiers and kidnapping another, a year after the original Stargate mission. A new team is assembled, including some old members, and they go in search of the missing soldier in order to find out how Ra could still be alive. Meanwhile, the alien Gou'ald kidnap Sha're and Skaara, implanting them with symbiotes and making them Gou'ald hosts.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

From what I can tell this "improved retelling" is just a child friendly version of the original. With all the after watershed moments removed, to make way for some woeful special effects.Given how fickle the American television giants are when it comes to continuing with Sci Fi shows, the fact that this pilot gained it enough popularity for a permanent series, when many doubted it, is surely evidence enough that the original doesn't need "improving. After all expectations must've been high given the success of the original film.PS it started in 1997 and finished in 2007, ten years by my admittedly not perfect maths, but even I can work out that Doctor Who, which started in 1963 and ran uninterrupted until 1989, not counting the current series, lasted 16 years longer than SG1. If your gonna lie to sell your product, at least lie convincingly.

What was Brad Wright thinking???? I am SO glad I didn't buy this...this....poor attempt to reinvigorate the Stargate franchise (sorry..but SGU is completely unwatchable).The entire storyline for the series would have to be rewritten for this abomination to make sense.Brad....just because Steven and George are going back and redoing their older stuff doesn't mean it's a good idea.I agree with another reviewer.....when SG-1 left Showtime, it lost some of the edge, but it still was able to entertain. Makes one wonder what it would have been like if it had stayed at Showtime....Anyway...if you've already seen the original pilot, pass this one up. And if you are a SG-1 fan, it will just make you want to send Brad Wright gobs of hate mail.

I found Stargate as it was entering its 7th season. I went and borrowed the original first season from a friend and this was the first episode i saw. It is what hooked me from the beginning. The dialog was witty, the scenes good, and the overall episode just caught your attention.Yes there was nudity, but it fit with what was going on. Ancient gods are notorious for being sexual beings. There for it is only logical for a parasite posing as one to want a perfect queen. They removed some of my favorite lines (i.e. Carters argument with Jack, and the staff demonstration), and changed some of the better scores.The only good thing about the new version is the update special effects. Other than that, it just isn't worth it to buy or even rent this toned down, censored version of the episode. Just get the original, then you'll understand everything better.

I'm a big fan of Stargate SG-1, in fact it is one of my favourite TV series, and the pilot episode I think is one the best.The new special effects are excellent, not that I'm complaining about the original ones. The gate puddle is new, the death-glider fight have been fixed and some new dialogue has been added to the episode. I also enjoyed the fact that Teal'cs moral struggle and distaste for the Goa'uld ways, has been put more in focus.Now I can understand the need for removing the nudity scene, I guess many younger fans are angry for not being able to see the episode that started it all. Still I think they exaggerated, the nudity scene fitted in to the story, and I find nothing improper with it, the show was intended to be R rated. And removing Carters classic line "just because my reproductive organs are on the inside rather than the outside, it doesn't mean I can't do your job" was completely unnecessary. Carters argument with jack is both funny and has become a classic moment in the series, which have been mentioned and parodied several times in the coming years.Also they removed all scenes related to Kawalskys infestation by the Goa'uld, maybe it makes it more of a surprise in the next episode, but I felt it was a little strange.In conclusion the re-cut is worth watching, should please the younger fans, but it just wasn't really necessary.
