The first 20 minutes were strong enough to grab my attention for about an hour, and then the typical Emmerich shenanigans began. Guns blazing, plot fading, and lore negating. It's disappointing when you can see the passion and, of course, money in the visuals and sound design. There's so much story behind critical plot points missing, and the information we do get is riddled hole after hole. Great casting, poor writing. As for the cultural narrative, it's what you'd expect from Hollywood. Honestly, I think a remake would work wonders if they focused on historical accuracy and genuine sci-fi.

Can you believe this is based on a real teleporter Einstein-Rosen bridge thing that the US military found in Kandahar, guarded by a giant with red hair seemingly a descendant of the ancient Uruk king Gilgamesh? I found that extremely interesting.

This was different film what I was expecting in a good way.
The way the whole portal and things were made was stunning even though the sfx and vfx lacked in some other parts of the film but other than that I enjoyed it.
What I enjoyed most was Daniel I mean he was such a great character and I loved him a lot with the way he was able to translate ancient egyptian and got along well with the people of the other world.
It could’ve had something more to it in my opinion but I enjoyed it nonetheless.

Great adventure. Great fun. Great way to watch James Spader for the first time (especially if you’re still a kid). Still great fun over 30 years later.

It was pretty good only thing I didn't like was how long it took for there to be subtitles for the natives/ like understanding

High potential plot, but rather one-dimensional execution results in a pretty poor Indiana Jones imitation, hence OK-ish

It was a fun old sci fi movie that I will admit was a huge building block for the genre but it was kind of boring for today’s standards
