DVD Reviews of Stargate Infinity: The Complete Series
DVD Review: Stargate Infinity
Summary: 3 Stars
I'm not sure I was ready for this one. I thoroughly enjoyed the TV series, and the original Movie version of StarGate but this one left me someplace other than what I was expecting... It's not a bad movie/series, just unexpected content.
DVD Review: was not happy
Summary: 1 Stars
When I ordered this video the description did not include the fact that it was a series of animated videos, it was not what I thought I was ordering, I will be more careful in the future especially after finding out that you charged a $10 restocking fee.DVD Review: Why Not?
Summary: 4 Stars
Great episodes! Interesting concept worth the investment if you are a big fan. If you are new I would suggest start from the beginning with the movie and tv show. However, its interesting enough that the kids will watch it though they have no idea whats going on story wise.DVD Review: get it for the kids
Summary: 2 Stars
this is for the kids not bad but really does not explain stargagte much for the real stargate fans, kids will love it thoughDVD Review: crude rip-off
Summary: 1 Stars
I've only seen the first episode of this series (it wasn't on television in the Netherlands)and I'm not impressed. Being familiar with the Stargate universe (SG1 and Atlantis) I was displeased with the lack of authenticity and realism. I understand that animated series have their own rules and conventions but the difference is too great.
A new set of monsters and a new adversary makes sense, new characters and a different storyline is also understandable, but this drivel wasn't worth my money. I instantly gave the set away to an avid Stargate collector who didn't care about the actual content but rather liked to complete his collection. A preview or sample of one or more episodes would have discouraged me from spending my money.
For those who enjoyed this series, have fun...
Description of Stargate Infinity: The Complete Series
Studio: Uni Dist Corp (music) Release Date: 05/13/2008All 26 episodes from Stargate Infinity's single season (2002-03) are included in this four-disc DVD package, and although it bears only a passing resemblance to the feature film, television series, and made-for-TV movies that share its name (in fact, it apparently isn't even considered an "official" member of the Stargate universe), the show boasts enough good qualities of its own to make for perfectly serviceable animated entertainment. Of course, the Stargate itself, the alien device that creates "wormholes" through which characters travel to different worlds, is still front and center; indeed, the visual effects used to depict the contraption are very similar in both animation and live action. But pretty much everything else about Infinity is different. It takes place years after the adventures chronicled in the long-running Stargate SG-1 TV show (in this world, the existence of the Stargate is now common knowledge), which means that all of that series' familiar characters are long gone. In their place are Major Gus Bonner (a salty, irreverent leader somewhat in the mold of SG-1 main man Richard Dean Anderson) and a team that includes a couple of teenagers, a half-human, half-alien brainiac, an empathic Native American, and weird creature who may or may not be one of the highly evolved "Ancients" familiar from the live action series. The villains have changed as well: principal among them are the huge, lizard-like Tlak'kahn, whose agenda, like all bad guys of their ilk, appears to be nothing less than total domination of the cosmos.
Despite the inherent limitations of television cartoons (principally the lack of a big enough budget to animate both characters and settings convincingly), Stargate: Infinity has all of the elements designed to appeal to its young (and presumably mostly male) audience, like cool aliens (Gigantic bugs! Slimy monsters!) and constant high-energy action sequences. This being a children's show, it also has a mandated educational element (we learn about everything from the difference between stalactites and stalagmites to the kind of arches used in Roman architecture), as well as various life lessons (believe in yourself, don't judge others by appearance alone, etc.); to the show's credit, the latter tend to be laid on with a trowel instead of a shovel. Bonus features include an "Animated Stargate Effects Test" and original concept art. --Sam Graham
