Nice effects though.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

If I had known what I knew now I probably wouldn't have watched this movie. But unfortunately hindsight is 20/20. So in the hopes of saving someone else from the same fate, I'm writing a review. Now don't get me wrong, this isn't a bad movie, but I wouldn't necessarily call it a good one either. The twist is more than a little obvious if you think about it for more than 30 seconds. The biggest problem though isn't the obvious ending, it's the fact that the people who made this movie don't seem very sure about what they wanted this movie to be. Half of it was straight out of a typical teenage slumber party movie, but the other half felt like it belonged in a serious drama/thriller. I kind of understand what they were going for but I think it would have been a lot better if they had concentrated less on the sleepover aspect and more on the thriller part of the movie. There were some subplots that just didn't fit right and I also felt in some places like the use of "teen slang" was forced and just odd. Yes teens says things like "totes" and "shiz", but it felt like the placement of these words was too deliberate rather than the casual way they are typically used.Overall, it felt like this movie was trying to be "I Know What You Did Last Summer" with less gore and more substance, but it just fell flat and looked like someone took two completely different movies and turned them into one.

Well, this movie is about a group of girls who have a sleep over for one of there birthdays. They end up playing a game called "Triple Dog" which is similar to truth or dare, except there is no truth... and if someone doesn't complete there "dare", they get there head shaven. And if one person finds the dare too hard, they can challenge to person who dared them to do it, if they complete it, the person they dare'd gets there head shaven... if not, they're going bald.The main issue in this movie is that a girl fell of a bridge into a body of water, and ended up dying, and one of the girls at the party was rumored to have "pushed her off the bridge".Enough of a summary though... the movie, it didn't have much going on. It was alright, I mean, I could stand through it, and watch it. It was "fairly" enjoyable, but it was nothing outstanding... It was below average for a movie.There is nothing "thrilling" about this movie as it is labelled to be, drama? Yes. A good drama? No.Would I recommend this movie to anyone? If they were a teenage girl, yes. Anyone else? No. This movie isn't for everyone, such as my self being a 17 year old boy... but that doesn't mean no one will enjoy it. So if you're a teenage girl, then this movie might be for you. If you ain't, then this movie might not be the most enjoyable...And just another note I want to add... that girl who was hosting the party had the most annoying voice possible. Lol.

This movie was sort of interesting in a way, but at the same time there was just something wrong with it.The story told in "Triple Dog" is simple and easy to follow; a group of girls get together for a sleep-over and play a dare game, where they have to perform outrageous things. Now, something puzzles me, why would these girls group together at all, there is a lot of disharmony and animosity between several of the girls, so it makes no sense really. I could understand why Even and Liza hung out, as their mom's planned for them to do so, but some of the others, well that made no sense. Why hang out with people who you can't stand.Some of the dares in the movie were actually clever and had me laughing, but some of them were a bit too outrageous as well, and I wonder who in their right mind would actually do such things, even when dared.Bear in mind that this is a teenage movie, so the cast is almost entirely all teenagers. That being said, I actually think some of them pulled off their roles quite well. Scout Taylor-Compton (playing Liza) were the most memorable of the cast, as her character was the one with most personality. I am sure that Brittany Robertson (playing Chapin) is a good actress, but wow I really got ticked off at the way her character was behaving and talking. Note that there is profanity in the movie several times, so you might take that into consideration if you are easily offended. Emily Tennant (playing Sarah) also did a rather good job with her role.Having seen the movie, I am sitting here with a sense of "was this movie really necessary?". It seems like a fairly weak plot to make a movie on. But at the same time, the way the girls interact and behave amongst each other, makes it somewhat worth it. But don't except a blockbuster and award-winning movie from "Triple Dog". For me, this movie is the type of movie you watch once and never again, it just doesn't have enough value in it for a second watching.If for nothing else, then it was worth seeing it when you saw the girls with their shaved heads. A woman shaving off her hair is courageous, so hats off for that.

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.
