Great Film overall

Awesome Movie

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

A mildly entertaining film about the "Bermuda Triangle". It started off promisingly enough, but lost its way by the third part. There was an interesting premise and some spooky special effects, but I was disappointed by the pat and ridiculous ending. The Bermuda Triangle is an interesting phenomenon with long-standing mysterious happenings occurring within its boundaries, however, it was not well-served by this movie.The acting was all right, though Eric Stotz at times wasn't acting very well, particularly at the end. Also, Lou Diamond Phillips did a good job, but his easy acceptance of son Dylan was a bit hard to swallow. The Australian Doctor and Catherine Bell's Doctor were credible and Sam Neil as always did a great job. But the ending was a miss-mash of crap, pseudoscience, science, history and conspiracy theory and it didn't play well. Along with being unconvincing, I found it rather ludicrous and the ending utterly preposterous. I can give no more details here, except to say that fiddling with Time (which I discus in the next paragraph) should generally not be attempting haphazardly.I am always critical of films that try to involve time-travel, alternate realities and the like; the reason being that using these plot devises runs the risk of having to deal with the "Paradox Problem". The "Paradox Problem" is when you change something in the past, or affecting the past, that then causes the events which necessitated you having to change the past to not even come about, which then means that you wouldn't have effected the past, therefore the events which happened in the past would actually have happened, leading you then to change the pa.....see where I am going with this? You mess with Time in a movie and you will be asking for all of the Nerds of Nerdom to come and ridicule your film.The only way to deal with this problem is to either clearly delineate what rules of Time you are following and how you believe Time to behave or to have divine intervention. Those who write about time travel truly need to tread lightly............while the writers and directors of this film did neither.If you are interested in spooky sea adventure stories, I recommend "Ghost Ship" or "Triangle". Though not based on actual events, they are spookier than this movie is. For good movies about the sea, I recommend "Moby Dick" (with Patrick Stewart) and "A Perfect Storm". For more action-adventure films, I recommend both the original "Poseidon Adventure" and the remake "Poseidon".

I saw it last night all in one hit. Four hours of it. My only thoughts were that the second half was subject to cutting and editing, that seemed to sometimes present a bit disjointed. It didn't really spoil it.I thought it was an entertaining project, and like all Sci-Fi was somewhat incredulous. So what. The special effects were great. I would hire it on DVD too, to watch it again, so it couldn't be that bad. The idea of a shift in time and space was good, however, that is a heady presumption for a lot of us mere mortals to digest. How did some remember what had gone on before, and others conveniently forget it.It's a shame they missed out on their 5 million, I thought that they would get a bit of it as compensation as one brother obviously remembered their input. Carl was in a time/space limbo, but his brother who hired them must have remembered. That bit confused me somewhat.

Yesterday I saw a movie The Triangle it had some great actors in it and on the cover it said from the producers of XMen OK so what were the directors as well as the actors thinking or should I say smoking? This had to be the worst movie every made, it jumped all over the place huge holes and I mean Grand Canyon side holes in the story line, completely awful acting and just the dumbest story you could ever imagine. Sleep Away Camp 2 use to be my worst movie of all time, but it got knocked down a peg as this movie was just awful. I am guessing the script was written every day before the shoot.I honestly can not see how the movie reviewers said it was good Scott Weinberg, DVDTALK.COM and Staci Layne Wilson, ABOUT.COM both gave it positive reviews so my advice never listen to anything those two meat heads say ever again.The best part of the movie is in the extra's when the cast tells me how good the movie is and how much fun it was to make and how the story was very gripping, I guessing they were acting in another movie. Basically I have lost respect for those actors, have the guts to say the movie sucked or don't say anything at all. What a piece of JUNK.

Reasonable movie until "night three disc." When will directors realise that over use of strobe lighting in movies does not have the desired effect. It only irritates. The most important part of this movie was ruined by twenty minutes of distracting flashing lights. I ask the director: "would you like a high powered torch constantly flashed in your face?" No, I didn't think you would.Special effects were mediocre, and the camera panning around subjects was over done. There was some tense moments handled quite well and the overall acting was good. Photography was my main criticism. I want to watch a movie not go through an experience of how clever the cameraman is at operating his equipment. Over use of kinetic angles only irritates.
