Storyline

While chasing a whaler, the Greenpeace boat sinks with the vessel, pulled by a mysterious force underwater and only Meeno Paloma survives. Meanwhile, after the disappearance of six ships in the Bermuda Triangle in one year, the millionaire owner of the Mineral Shipping Lines Eric Benerall hires the skeptical journalist of The Observer Howard Thomas; the scientist Bruce Geller; the offshore engineer Emily Patterson and the psychic Stan Lathem to investigate the reasons for the phenomenon in the area. If the team succeeds in their quest for the truth, each one would receive five million dollars. They find a high-tech underwater facility from the Navy, and each one of them has glimpses of alternative reality after their discovery. They conclude that the experiment conducted by the Navy is affecting the electromagnetic balance of the ocean, while trying to find a way to close the dimensional tear opened by the Philadelphia Experiment. But they believe that the procedure actually will open...

User Reviews

Mystery finally solved??

For most of the movie; i loved it,, the facts, storyline, acting, relating story back to Columbus, The Philadelphia Experiment very smart, Being an avid Bermuda Triangle fan over the years, and reading countless articles, books, TV, and movies , this movie i am the most happiest with as far as interesting story being told as close to actual facts as you would have it,, the acting very pretty darn good also. i just didn't care for the ending, felt they couldn't make up their minds what to do,, and after the "ending" the sappiness of what happens to the characters lives, i could have done without, i hate that in movie more than anything, but overall i really enjoyed 90% of this movie with no problem, and do recommend it to avid Triangle theorists like myself. yeah some of the theories are "out there" but plausible, considering the Navy, and the U.S. Government over the past years, so yeah i buy into the explanation and all, just kinda didn't like the last second indecision of the man in charge of the experiment, and the post character stuff .
