Where to Watch Triangle
- rg94002 days agoI enjoyed Triangle a lot more after thinking about it as a concept versus when actually watching it. The actual plot beats played out just as I expected, with none of the reveals being shocking. Maybe I've just consumed enough stories that utilize these tropes, but it all felt very predictable to me. The movie, instead, tries to build up to these twists in a way that makes a lot of it feel boring as you wait for the shoe to drop. The concept also just lends itself to being slightly repetitive. It doesn't help that every single character outside of the main character Jess is as superficial as it gets. We might get a detail or two about them, but they may as well be nameless cardboard cutouts. The acting is similarly wooden. It's almost worse that the movie tries to setup some backstory since it never actually returns to it for any of the characters. However, as the movie starts to head to its conclusion, the denoument did actually surprise me. At the end of the movie, I finally understood what they were trying to do. And honestly? It's really clever. The ending recontextualizes a lot of what I saw before, and I think the way it ties into both the details as well as the plot and structure of the movie is very impressive. It adds a lot to the themes and character. I wish the actual movie was more entertaining because it really is such a solid concept. I think there was so much potential for this movie. It nails some of the hardest parts while missing the most basic elements, ultimately making it more interesting as an idea than an actual movie.
- Vincent Reggiannini3 February 2026A movie that seems painfully rolling into being yet another Hollywood Trope machine, spitting out pieces of tired old “Movie Magic” - this time in the guise of a teen horror flick, that slowly hooks you, engages you in a way that you never expect and then stuns you as the pieces all start to fall together. I silently watched this film thinking I was minutes away from being sorely disappointed, and then be angry at myself for believing anything could pull the wool over my eyes - but I watched in excited disbelief as the strange twist after twist develop in front if my eyes. I have seen it all before and have long since grown tired of being duped. But I was happily surprised. It’s a story as old as Greek Mythology, but done in a modern way. A frightening parable about second chances, and endless curses whose destiny we cannot avoid. A real “must see”.
