Verdict on Devil’s Triangle
Devil’s Triangle is an action sci-fi movie that follows survivors of a plane crash that end up in Atlantis. While in Atlantis they learn of a bigger plan from the Atlanteans that could cause bigger problems for people on the surface.
This is a slow movie, it doesn’t seem to go very far at any speed. Despite having a nice-looking Atlantis, it ends up being a slow process of the same circles. The group want to escape and keep trying to find new ways, with a lot of talking about climate change.
The awfully slow storytelling takes us away from anything else enjoyable in the movie. The creature creations were interesting, only we didn’t see enough of them.
Final Thoughts – Devil’s Triangle is a slow movie that goes nowhere fast.
