The Triangle was an interesting mini-series from the SciFi Channel. The reason is likely due to the involvement of Dean Devlin and Brian Singer. The mix of script, actors, and effects are incredible for a television project. 

I like Sam Neil, particularly in the Jurassic Park features. His role is smaller than the others and Eric Stoltz is excellent and a nearly down and out reporter who career is in the virtual toilet. Catherine Bell is beautiful but she just isn't that great of an actress. That being said the cast works well together to create characters you begin to care about. 

See this mini without the one-hour worth of commercials actually creates a 180 minute feature film that tells a quality story with a mix of television and feature film actors. 

What does the Bermuda Triangle mean to you? Fact or Fiction. Truth or bullshit. Truth is we just don't know what it really is... 

PACKAGING 
The packaging looks good. The images mixing black and ocean blue to create the cover for the miniseries, but it comes across very nice.  

VIDEO: 
The burn for this is excellent. The SciFi Channel network here in Las Vegas looks like shit most of the time, and the dvd burn looks outstanding. The blacks are dark and the colors in the mini-series are bright.  

AUDIO: 
The audio is outstanding. Likely the best i have heard from anything television. The use of the rear speakers is excellent. The mix of hearing traffic, rain and even the wind sounds very cool and helps set the mood of the film while your watching. Excellent!

BONUS FEATURES: 
Lion's Gate did shit for creating extras for the mini-series. With guys like Dean Devlin & Brian Singer there should have been hours of bonus material. Not the crap you see below. 

• Sci-Fi Inside the Triangle - A 21 minute behind the scenes look. 

• Trailer Gallery - 7 minutes worth of trailers. 

• Trailer for Battlestar Galactica

• Trailer for Eureka

SUMMARY: 
Grabbing this for a mere $19 is gonna be a steal. It's enjoyable to watch. The cast works well together and the producers tell a great story. 

The story telling truly tells the story in a way that will make you stop and think about what the Bermuda Triangle

Good mini-series don't come along to often with this type of quality.  Let's remember other great minis (not on DVD) like "Creature", "The Beast", "Something is Out There", and "Goliath Awaits".

The Triangle Overall Rating:  B
