Triple Dog (2010)

Overrated and overhyped

Beautiful, moving film.

A Masterpiece!

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

OK so honestly now, did i see the same movie as everyone else? this is the first review i have ever posted because i am utterly shocked that people actually thought this was remotely watchable. the best review is the one that mentions that this one isn't for twilight fans, implying that this piece of garbage is better. though i haven't and will not view twilight, i can't imagine that something like this could be thought of as intelligent. the reviews that mention the great acting and character development....i mean really, is this the same movie. triple dog? the one with the bad girl (you know she's bad cause she wears her hat cocked to the side and the music gets edgier when she's introduced), the rich girl, the catholic girl, the rat girl...yeah she carries around a rat, the slutty girl, and then the main character that is i suppose, the nice girl. not only do you not care about these characters, but you hate them. and then there's the surprise twist. wow...i can't believe i sat through all of this. i want my 95 minutes back! if people believe this is a quality movie, mankind is doomed. so bad....really, if you're thinking of watching it, do it! cause it really is that bad. honestly, i am really nervous that people think this is good. utter drivel! you can find more tension and drama on old nickelodeon shows.

This movie still hasn't been released in the US, at least not in wide distribution, and that is a shame. Despite the 2 (so far) 1 star reviews, that appear to have been written by the same person, this is not a bad movie. The characters are a bit stereotypical, but, name a teen movie where they are not. And, frankly, the teens in this movie are far more believable than in most teen films. Part of the problem might be that this film seems to be categorized as a thriller, and it definitely is not. It is a coming of age movie. I like that the characters do develop over the course of the film. And, while it is hard to empathize with the main character, Chapin, in the beginning, by the end of the film I did. I am also a Brit Robertson fan from her work on the TV series 'Life Unexpected'. And, why this film got an R rating is beyond me. Oh, and this film passes the Bechdel test(look it up if you have never heard of it). That may be the reason for the unhappy reviews.

4.6 out of 10? This movie was so fresh and unique. The acting was strangely very good, and the depth to the plot was, for me, totally unexpected. When I rented this, I suspected I would be able to handle maybe half an hour before turning it off, but I was so wrong.The director had very minute attention to detail and it really showed. I liked the way that the shots were framed and found the camera work to be near perfect. So yeah, maybe the ending wasn't a complete surprise but the way everything came together was what made this movie a hidden gem. I found the final 10 minutes to be genuinely authentic and emotional.It's a shame this was marketed as a teen thriller with a silly title and DVD cover-work because it was much more like a psychological drama.

I'm not too sure which movie the other person saw, but it surely wasn't this one. This movie couldn't have had more dismal char's in it. I see absolutely no reason why they were even together to begin with. None of them even seemed to like one another, let alone be involved in a sleep-over with one another. If you have any liking for movies of ANY type, I would surely pass on this one. If you do dare to watch it, be prepared to be extremely disappointed. Your not going to care about any of the char's. Or even care if you finish the movie. Don't waste your money or time on this worthless piece of movie trash.... I realize this may seem a bit harsh, but I was extremely sorry that I even began to watch this....
