Each mission is carefully laid out and structured in a way that you really do feel like you're of great assistance to the Federation at large. Thanks mostly in part to the presence of the U.S.S Enterprise, Lieutenant Commander Worf, and Captain Picard, they help to amplify the Star Trek feel. Yes, the script should have been better written, with a few revisions here and there, but there's still effective entertainment to be had here.As it stands, I fully believe that, while many people say that Star Trek: Invasion lacks the feeling of a traditional Star Trek setting, I say As it stands, I fully believe that, while many people say that Star Trek: Invasion lacks the feeling of a traditional Star Trek setting, I say otherwise. This is good fun with all its flaws, and it's not as bad as what the mainstream critics have said about. Stargate, along with Independence Day are his finest works, and display a certain element from a director that most of the time, can't seem to craft a good film. There are far worst films out there, and Emmerich has directed far worst movies than this. Even with all its imperfections, Stargate is an underrated film, one that doesn't deserve the flack it has received. The story should be reworked, but overall, film buffs who enjoy mindless action films, should give this film a chance. There are enough effective moments to keep you interested, but like I said, you are left wanting more as the scripts limitations do show up. I really liked the film, and considering it was directed by Roland Emmerich, it's a pretty good effort.

Nonetheless, the film doers boast good action to make up for the weak moments that are found throughout. As it is, it's a good film that unfortunately has a few elements missing to really make it a standout feature. I feel that that if the script would have been better thought out, this film really could have been a highly engaging, thrilling and memorable sci fi adventure.

Although far from perfect, this film isn't as bad as it seems, but it does have a few weak moments.

Stargate is a fun, entertaining picture that is visually stunning and boasts some pretty good performances. Stargate is the second Roland Emmerich feature, and is a flawed, but somewhat enjoyable effort from a director who is very hit and miss.
