i watch this out of curiosity . i enjoy stargate sg1 and i have watch many of the other tv show and movie that the principal character have work on . my expectation weren not high and so i be surprise to be so monstrously disappointed . the act throughout be appal and and the script be bad . zero research into the bad science that be spout throughout the movie and or into martial art ( which several cast member engage in throughout the movie and despite clearly have no martial art training ( baton twirling do not a warrior make ) ) training make the already implausible plot even less credible . the same weapon ( carry by michael shank ) and when shot at the side of a mountain and cause extreme damage and but when shot indoors at the wall make of wicker and create a small firework effect without damage the wicker structure ok and i suppose michael shank fan will be sue to see that in stargate sg1 and where a staff weapon create either a surface burn on a main character and or blast a hole in a section of castle wall a require ) and but still . a bad cgi snake god eat one of the faithful in the way a dog would eat snake just do not behave like that . the basic premise of an amazonian warrior cult on a distant planet be silly at best . matriarchal society have always be base on a lack of understand that men be require in the process of propagate the specie for instance and the picts and who do not figure out the role of men in sexual reproduction until the ninth century at which time and the balance of power move from the woman to the men . they carry technological weapon and demonstrate some knowledge of science particularly of medicine and so the idea that a matriarchal society could exist with this level of scientific knowledge be base purely on the original author wet dream . of course and the few reference to stellar science make in this movie demonstrate that the author know nothing about that either ( except for a few keywords that he must have hear in other movie ) . still and it could have be do well like she in 1965 for instance and which show matriarchal society with a certain reverence and far more believably and and even after 45 year it seem fresh than this fetid exercise in stupidity . march a few woman around in armour and pout aggressively and and spit out their line like a kiddie look for a fight in a nightclub ( come on then . i will do ya . style ) and seem to be over simplify the complexity of a matriarchal culture . the cultural reference be so simple all hail the snake mother pretty much sum it all up . even the tiny hamlet show more cultural variation . there be nothing clever and think provoke and interesting and visually exciting and or remotely entertain about this movie . the soundtrack be of similar quality . i can only assume that the few and overly charitable positive review this movie have receive be from blinker michael shank fan who will give a thumb up to anything he involve in . don not be fool . low budget be not a reason for a film to fail cheap b movie can be brilliant . this isn not one of them and and there no reason to inflict this movie on yourself .
