Product: Triangle (2009)
Rating: 4.0
Well-Executed Puzzle Box Movie
Though nominally a horror movie, Triangle isn't particularly scary. Instead it's a puzzle-box film which solid cinematography and acting lift out of the B-movie realm. (It's more like a B+.) But really the only thing that matters for this kind of movie is if the rules of the game it lays out are intriguing enough to draw you in, and on that account Triangle is a success. It does lurching plot twists, intricate chronologies, and retroactively important throwaway details with style and precision.LostandMementofans should feel right at home. After a viewing or two, you can cruise on over to the comment threads on the IMBD page to read elaborate theories as to what really happened. Until then the usual spoiler cautions apply: avoid the trailer, reviews (including ones on this page), and all promotional material apart from the back of the DVD box.
