Stargate Universe - SGU: Season 1.5 2010 Horror Movie Review

I have been a fan of the Stargate saga since the movie “Stargate” was released in theaters. Although, for me at least, it was difficult to get into the new storyline with each Stargate storyline, it was still a familiar theme. SG:U is altogether different, at least for now.


SG:1 and SG:Atlantis dealt with the stargate as the center of the storyline universe; Stargate:Universe does not. SG:U focuses more on the characters, trapped within an Ancient-designed ship and hurtling into the farthest celestial territory imaginable. This is where SG:U shines. Unlike previous storylines, they can’t just step back into the stargate and return home. In fact, it is quite a challenge for the characters to just survive on this aging vessel that tries to kill its passengers with each lightyear traveled.


I don’t really care why the studios want to release SG:U in half season increments. I’m just glad they do it, since I can get more episodes on my shelf to review at my leisure in a shorter amount of time.


I loved SG:U 1.0 and am eagerly awaiting the arrival of 1.5. July can’t come soon enough!
