The film only makes some kind of sense on its own fantastic level.
Top CriticMelissa George's fearless, credible performance grounds the madness in a moving emotional reality, even as her sanity is lost at sea.
Smith's mind-bending mystery will leave everyone as lost as protagonist Jess, no matter whether they are trapped in an unravelling mind, a never-ending twilight zone - or in the prisonhouse of cinema itself.
The film would have been better served by a stronger sense of the metaphor it was trying to construct, but as it is, the unravelling of the puzzle is underwhelming.
A tense and interesting psychological thriller.
A surprisingly satisfying white-knuckler.
Triangle is lots of violent fun for those who like... violent fun.
Echoing the tone of a wicked childhood nightmare, Triangle suggests big things are back on the horizon for Christopher Smith, even if he hasn't quite hit a home run just yet.
A crisp and refined little mind-bender that gets pretty contorted, but makes just enough sense to deliver a strong finalé.
Has a strong visual style but a horrible story.
Smith não apenas cria um roteiro inteligente e com uma estrutura complexa e fascinante como ainda confere um tom opressivo de pesadelo através de sua excelente direção.
'Triangle' is one of the most intelligent, thought provoking genre films in recent memory.
Triangle is a forgettable direct-to-video horror picture with occasional hints of promise.
Triangle is so shrewdly conceived that you won't mind its mentally draining resolution.
Truly it's one of the hidden gems of 2009...
It's creepy, atmospheric stuff and at every twist of this Möbius strip we wonder how Smith will keep things going. But he manages it with considerable skill and we leave his picture suitably shaken.
Audience Reviews for Triangle
Super Reviewer
A very peculiar film that never lost my interest. Although narratively it develops very absurdly, it's a good quality entry into the cat and mouse suspense genre. Powered by an eery atmosphere, great acting, and a brilliant leading screen presence from Mellisa George. It takes elements from The Shining and doesn't misuse them. Like all the best horror film's the direction is solidly executed and the cinematography is designed perfectly. It's got a believable as opposed to uncliche'd script, and is impressively made on such a small amount of money. By no means a classic but more of a benchmark, in the sense that it isn't the same old psycho flick. That's a brilliant achievement in modern horror cinema.

- Jess: Kill them, you have to kill them! It's the only way to get home! Kill them!

- Jess: Downstairs right now is a copy of myself. Me! Walking and talking with Greg.

- Jess: Oh you're just having a bad dream, that's all baby. That's all it was. Bad dreams make you think you're seeing things that you haven't. You know what I do when I have bad dream? I close my eyes and I think of something nice - like being here with you.
