Purely Joyful Movie!

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

Strange phenomena has been occurring in the Sargasso Sea or the Bermuda Triangle since early seafaring. Columbus in 1492 encounters a modern ship and loses 2 men in a strange event. In the present, ship magnate Eric Benerall (Sam Neill) finds those two men and his own men dead on one of his ships. He recruits certain experts to solve the mystery for $5 million each. Howard Thomas (Eric Stoltz) is a reporter investigating Triangle cases. Emily Patterson (Catherine Bell) is a skilled engineer. Stan Lathem (Bruce Davison) is a psychic. Bruce Geller (Michael E. Rodgers) is an extreme adventurer. Meeno Paloma (Lou Diamond Phillips) leads a Greenpeace expedition against whalers when giant bubbles take down the whaling ship and the Greenpeace boat. Meeno is the sole survivor but he returns to find the world oddly different.This is a 3 part Sci-Fi mini-series. I really like part one as the mystery gets laid out. The production is pretty good for a TV show. It's set up for something interesting. The second part starts to show some cracks. I don't like some of the turns with the mystery. I don't care about Lou Diamond Phillips' part of the story. I also don't like the team being split up. Part three does a competent job wrapping the story up. This TV series starts out strong but loses some of its steam.

I really liked this thriller, and the fact that it was combined into 3 parts on 2 DVDs made it even better - just enough time for deep plot development. In the middle of the third part I was about to become disappointed - "meh, just another Hollywoodish ending", but I was wrong, it was not the end. The non-stop action and thrill lasted almost until the last minutes of the movie.Despite the fact that the plot is based on a well-known subject - the Bermuda Triangle - the movie made a great Sci-Fi thriller. I have not really noticed any boring clichés, well, maybe a bit at the very end. I would really recommend this movie to Sci-Fi and thriller fans. Good job, Baxley, actors and the team!

Thought this film was going to be interesting and quickly found out it was nothing that I have not heard before about missing planes, ships and people being lost completely in the Bermuda Triangle. The actors held this picture together with great acting by Sam Neil, Eric Stoltz and Bruce Davison. The TV Series of this story bomb out after a few showings and this film goes around and around in circles and you quickly lose track of just what the film is really about. The ending will leave you high and dry and you will feel like the story just came to a complete ending before it should have. Don't waste your time on this film, it was a big disappointment to me.

Disappointment #1 -- and it's truly something of an outrage -- is the fact that Catherine Bell keeps her clothes on throughout this miniseries (despite one provocative scene in which she gets naked out-of-frame with one of her male costars). Yes, I realize "The Triangle" was made for TV -- for the dread Sci-Fi Channel, no less -- but I was watching it on a DVD and...well, allow me my fantasies. Disappointment #2 arrives midway through the plot, when it becomes clear what -- or who -- is responsible for the mysterious and terrible things that have been happening to people, planes, and ships in the Bermuda Triangle. Who's behind it all? The U.S. Navy! Yeah, when in doubt, have the threat turn out to be -- as one character sniffs disdainfully -- "the military." It seems those neofascist scoundrels have been attempting to build "a weapon," and, as the same character observes, they never own up to the crimes they commit. (The notion of wealthy entertainment-industry types, who've grown up enjoying the fruits of our security and democracy, using the military as a convenient all-purpose villain is an old one in Hollywood, of course, but it remains distasteful... and has become the soggiest of clichés.) // Two more disappointments: the preposterous coincidence in which the grandfather of a young victim of the Bermuda Triangle -- someone dragged into the plot because of this family connection -- suddenly reveals that he is, of all things, the very scientist responsible for the Navy's evil experiments; and in the next ten minutes he delivers, for our benefit, a succinct exposition of exactly what the Navy is up to. Finally, let's give a nod to another character, some sort of top government official -- a former Secretary of the Navy, I think -- who ends a little speech with a warning that the Triangle is "the nexus of all the unexplained phenomenon." I couldn't believe my ears, and actually switched on the subtitles. Yep, "phenomenon" -- and the filmmakers left it in. Maybe it was just another attempt to paint the military as morons.
