I'm struggling to find things to say about this episode. It had very little impact on me, despite being a huge improvement over the first part. The show looks wonderful, and appears to have had a budget increase here, the special effects are certainly the best seen in the show so far. Hathor is just not a very entertaining villain, and her demise is not exciting. It essentially wraps up a fairly dull setup episode by piling on the action.
- What's going on with Daniel here? He just appears to have no energy or interest in anything that's going on. He gets a great line though ("it's just a deep, bleeding gash").
- General Hammond and Teal'c flying through the gate is awesome, and his "YEEEHAAAW" is so unexpected! Loved it.
- Major Davis is set up to be something of an antagonist, and it felt a little forced to me. We've already had/got Samuels and Maybourne.
- Teal'c's little story isn't that exciting. His speech is a bit stereotypical "Jaffa unite" and it seems that only one person in the crowd is allowed to speak. The set looks wonderful.
- The action scenes are a big step up in terms of choreography and visual excitement.
RATING: 6 out of 10
