Notes on a Triangle (1966) User Reviews

Semi-interesting, but wears out its welcome

Sure, it's fun to see triangles of many different colours be combined and then re-combined into ever increasingly complex geometric patterns. But, after the first minute or so, the novelty wears off, and what you're left with is a fairly one-dimensional one-trick-pony of an animated film which, far too often, the NFB let young filmmakers get away with. Sure, technical expertise is all well and good, but a film should also say something. At least, something other than 'Look how smart the filmmaker is!'
