Stargate Atlantis season 4 vol 3 review


Carl gets stuck into yet more Stargate Atlantis...

by Carl England

Time for another Stargate disc, with lots of special effects, explosions, lots of technical talk, and some great sci-fi. Halfway through season 4, and we’re enjoying a season with bare bones. It’s not too structure heavy, but there’s enough going on to keep you coming back, which is a great way to be, as we get a lot of solid singular episodes.

**snippage**

With two great episodes and two good ones, you really get what you need from this midseason DVD. While the extras may be skimping out a little, non-actor jargon-filled commentaries, some photos and a tiny featurettes that features yet more jargon, the disc is still worth a few bob. Is it worth 12 quid, like on Amazon? I’d say yes, but take a look at the full season boxset for just under £30 - that’s definitely worth it.

And with price on the table, Stargate has definitely gotten the message. The prices they used to bring out SG-1 season DVDs out at was horrible (£60!). Of course, time has whittled those down to just over £30, but bringing this, the second best season of Atlantis, out for such a bargain is a stroke of genius, and one that can only work in their favour. Here’s to more of that!
