Critics Consensus

Semi-comic-action thriller Triangle teams three leading Hong Kong directors together with confusing results. For asian cinema aficionados only.

Anton Bitel

Little White Lies

A convoluted crime caper with strong ethical underpinnings to support its many moods and styles.

Derek Malcolm

London Evening Standard

The film is made confusing not only by the twisting plot but by the varied styles of the three cult directors.

Rated: 2/5

Tim Robey

Daily Telegraph (UK)

Three of Hong Kong cinema's top names take turns to direct this batty heist-gone-wrong thriller, which proceeds from stylish-but-incomprehensible (Tsui Hark) through crunchy and violent (Ringo Lam) to just barking (Johnnie To).

The beauty of the final showdown is that it's a form in which anything could happen. It's an emotional wilderness, a sort of invented environment that brings To closer to Andr Tchin than either of his two co-directors here.

Your best strategy is simply to sit back, try to follow along, and enjoy the hijinks.

When the 3 directors made the 3 sections to connect into a complete story, the line cannot be connected, is this expected?

It was a total disaster! The only segment that was worth watching was the final segment directed by Johnnie To!

3/10: A single movie directed by 3 HK directors - Tsui Hark, Ringo Lan abd Johnny To. Direction and story wise was top notch until the final end where it gets comical and ridiculous, which is a shame because it could have turned out better.

The flick is okay, it's a cocktail of not so fresh ingredients. To seems to have choose a cast, put them in a shaker, shaken them all together and waited for the result. A strange triangle came out. Not a must see.

Hark, Lam (his final film) and To combine their efforts for superb directing of this awesome caper. In three half-hour segments each legendary director takes a turn. Temptation. Jealousy. Destiny. To delivers with an amazing ending. Four-bag Monte and Smear the Queer with guns! Great heist film.

An almost decent attempt that fell flat on its face.
