The Many Strange Stories of Triangle Woman (2008) User Reviews

An incredible waste of time and an insult to the viewer

[belowareptile · 1/10 · 30 July 2009]

I could not watch more than about 15 minutes of this sad excuse for a movie. I was enticed to watch it by the short synopsis given here at IMDb. Big mistake.

From the very start the acting is incredibly bad, to the point that it is frustrating to watch. Vivian Jimenez Hall is unengaging, unprofessional and possibly the worst actress I have ever had the misfortune of seeing. The others "actors" are just as bad.

Quite seriously, EVERYTHING in this movie is bad, bad, bad. The music is bad, the cinematography is bad, the direction is bad, the lighting, the wardrobe, the casting, you get the picture.

Some bad movies attain a cult status, because they are so bad that they are funny. This is not one of those movies. Avoid at all costs.

Some strange stories indeed!

These stories just didn't make any sense!

I don't know if this so-called 'movie' has to be artistic or not. I just think it was REALLY bad. Kept watching for about 50 minutes (movielength +/- 95min) and was bored as hell.

The acting wasn't good, maybe on purpose. Let's hope so because the actors don't have any talent AT ALL!

I don't get why this movie got an 8.7/10 as a rating. Maybe I just don't see it!

I'm sorry to say it was a waste of my time!

1/10

Comparable closely to Troll 2.

I regret to say that I was attached to this film. I will not say how, and I am using a throwaway account because I couldn't resist reviewing it after 5 years had passed.

To start, there is virtually no story line in this movie. It is a random unexplained mess that tries it's hardest to be hilarious. If there's any part of this movie that made me laugh, it's the thought that lots of time and effort went into producing this convoluted, horribly acted mess. It feels like we're watching the result of an inside joke between the filmmakers that we're not in on. If this movie is ever remembered by anyone other than the cast and crew, it will be remembered as a lesser version of what Troll 2 is seen as today. A movie so terrible it's painful to watch. It's past the point where it would be bad enough to be funny. It's simply bad. Even if there were good actors in this movie, it wouldn't be able to revive the awful screenplay. On a slightly technical aspect, the cinematography has nothing going for it. Also, the audio is constantly changing in volume at a strange level.

Overall: Virtually no story line. Terrible Acting. Boring, at best. Painful to watch.

As a person attached to this film, I personally apologize to anyone who had the misfortune, or the perseverance to make it through this film. Could be slightly enjoyable if you're surrounded by friends and watching it simply to make fun of it.

Horrible writing! Subpar acting. Catchy music.

When I first heard about this movie I was very intrigued. I've always been a fan of short stories and when I saw this movie had 10 stories I knew it was something I wanted to watch.

Unfortunately this movie is very bad. The whole idea of this movie seems to be based on those "what the heck did i just watch?" random moments. Women wearing mustaches? Someone dies and then just gets up(comes back to life?) to finish the story by have a sing-a-long? And I'm really giving the movie a lot of credit by calling them stories. They were really nothing more than people interacting randomly. I'm not sure if the whole thing was just a loosely based idea and they just thought of things they could do in the movie as they were filming it. The whole thing played out like a 90 minute skittles commercial.

I was really disappointed with this movie but not only because I thought it was bad, but because they seemed to have the tools to create a pretty decent movie. There were plenty of locations where they filmed at, the music was dare I say catchy and the acting wasn't great but could be overlooked with decent writing. The point is, don't bother watching this movie. Or if you do, the first couple stories are the best so if you don't like those, don't bother sticking it out, it gets worse.

Who wasted the electricity to make this???

Quirky, lame, pointless, and just plain AWFUL. Washing your windows, cleaning out the cat box, scrubbing your toilets, or reorganizing your file cabinet would be a more enjoyable use of your time. A very poor excuse for a movie. I remember ABC after school specials that look like Academy Award winners compared to this. I thought this film might be fun, or even weirdly interesting. It's not. It is just plain bad, and not entertaining at all. I have to write 10 lines of text about this movie, but it doesn't warrant even one. I hope it will at least spare you the utter waste of time that this movie is. Avoid this one at all costs, maybe calling a relative (even one you hate) that you haven't spoken with in years is better than this.

Worth a negative rating

The ratings don't go low enough to express how awful this movie was. It is like someone with money got together mental defectives, adults with childlike minds and people suffering from dementia together and asked them to write their own stories. The "triangle woman" was someone that you might find in a nonsensical children's book. There was no real plot to any of the "stories" and the adult actors were all horrible. The teens and twins were excellent, it is just sad that their acting experience is contained in the warped bad drug induced set of tales. The music was from some bad 70's B movie. The editing with the dialog was way off in some spots. I kept waiting for someone to come on screen in a white coat and lead the "triangle lady" off and back to her room so they could give her her meds. The only good thing I can say about this movie is that it gave young actors a chance and had some classical music.
