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.

Triangle puts a new theory on old myths. But its not some slasher flick like the junk that sci-fi usually puts, out this has an actual story, and you'll enjoy every minute of the movie, and narrative. Its a true pre-apolocyptic movie that puts together theories in well thought out way without over focusing on melodrama. Though the Characters are fully developed, no fluff characters, but no especially mean people rather just the stuff you would encounter with a beau-racy. Just great tension building and pace. I wouldn't say sharp dialog, like "the lion in winter", but you watch the movie for it conjecture, and its imagination.

View MoreYesterday 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.
... View MorePotentially quite good, but thoroughly ruined by lack of attention to storyline and development of characters. Clearly trying to capitalise on the success of Sci-Fi driven drama such as Lost/Invasion, but unfortunately forgetting to get the basics right. Eric Stolz and Sam Neill are both good actors. However, the dialogue they had to spout was glib nonsense and they knew it. Really disappointed with the cliché, disjointed storytelling and embarrassing script. Lost the will to live after 3 episodes...CGI special effects not particularly convincing and attention to detail very poor. The climax was confusing and the pseudo-science behind it very vague. Was it a weapon? Who was developing it? Who cares?
