    That's the one. I don't normally like 'Groundhog day' based films but there's something special about this

    Yeah, it's great - really surprised me just how good it was.

    Another +1 from me, great film - really odd.
    The final 20 mins or so have a brilliant feeling of impending dread.

    Its an absolute gem of a film.
    Time will be very kind to this film going forward.
    A friend told me its the only film where if you want to watch the sequel to it, rewatch it again. I did not know what that meant and it made me curious to watch it.
    Brilliant!

    Brilliant film asides from it having Melissa George in it. She is dreadful.

    Along with The Hunger Games (baring in mind, a MASSIVE blockbuster) this is my favourite film ever. It's one of those films that makes me look at things completely different, such a mind twister. Beautifully shot and acted and an absolute underrated gem of a film. I would recommend this to anyone. Literally one of my favourite films I could never get tired of!

    I agree, the scene with the dead birds on the ships hull was really good,

    I didn't know it would be
    time loop situation
    until I watched it, I thought it would be like Ghost Ship.

    Bought it on Blu-ray for £6

    Each time you watch it you catch little things that you missed the last time, little triggers. Complete gem.

    Read a few reviews of Triangle a few years back that mentioned the film 'Timecrimes' as a kind of comparison. Having loved 'Timescrimes' I took a punt on Triangle. Glad I did, a very underrated film.

    TimeCrimes

    ^ Yup, Timecrimes is terrific.

    Haven't seen Triangle so I too must give it a go.

    I have Timecrimes on DVD, I bought it after watching Triangle because it was recommended as a similar film by the good folk on IMDb. I never got around to watching it though, I'll have to change that.

    Triangle itself is a good film, different from the usual fare and it demands multiple viewings. Each time you watch it you notice a little bit more which helps complete the jigsaw puzzle.

    Its a film that needs a couple of watches, once you get to the end of the film and whats actually happened hits you then watching it again makes it even more fun as it then makes total sense from start to finish.

    Enjoyable, original film. Watched it on this thread's recommendation, otherwise I hadn't heard of it, so thanks to the OP. One watch is enough for me as the premise unravels as the loop gets wider until the end is reached, and you get the gist of the film at the crucial moments. Pretty sure I didn't miss anything to warrant a repeat viewing. But a good little film.

    Many people did not realise she was in purgatory and the reasons why even after getting to the end of the film

    But what happens at the end is not actually that surprising because its been steadily happening throughout the film.

    Yeah it takes a while to work it out, I knew what had happened by the end of the movie but the extras comfirmed it and explained it in a lot more detail as well.
