SHERLOCK HOLMES (review)

Tripp Doogan's SHERLOCK HOLMES Movie Review

"Clever old-day style mystery flick, classic and characteristic!" -Tripp Doogan

I never was a big Sherlock Holmes fan as a youngsta, I heard the stories and the references about him but I never read the books or followed the hype. But this movie is good! I dont think they coulda found a better man for the role than Robert Downey Jr. either.. he played the part with character and charisma. A clever old-day style mystery flick, classic and characteristic! The plot was just as twisty and turny as you'd expect to go with the title, if not more so. There was a lil more action than I expected and the visual effects were on point. Those old-day settings are always a treat to watch, especially when they're believable, as this was. It's definately worth a watch! Very authentic. Jude Law did his thing in this one too, probly my favorite role I've seen from him.

SURROGATES (review)

Tripp Doogan's SURROGATES Movie Review

"This movie couldnt have been more ON-TIME in a world where people are so content with not keepin' it real!" -Tripp Doogan

This movie wasn't great as a movie itself, it was good, but the point behind the movie was better than 99% of movies to date! This movie couldnt have been more ON-TIME in a world where people are so content with not keepin' it real!! I bet fake people wont like this movie at all. People these days ara straying away from reality so much that I wouldnt be surprised if they came up with surrogates in real life, so people could live their lives thru from a chair in their home while their surrogates go thru life doing all the things they wanna do.. without aging, feeling pain, etc. People would be able to look as young as they want and be whoever they wanna be, but the catch is nobody would be real. I really love the point of this movie and I salute Bruce Willis for playing the real role, and the makers and script writers of this film- my hat comes off to you! Thank you for making a movie based on the importance of authenticity and realness... cuz this world has been taken over by fake people lately. Like I said, this couldnt have come at a better time. Everybody needs to watch this movie! Especially FAKE people!!!!!!!!!

THE INVENTION OF LYING (review)

Tripp Doogan's THE INVENTION OF LYING Movie Review

"I wish our world could really be like THIS for at least one week!!" -Tripp Doogan

In a world where everyone can only tell the truth, it's amazing the way people are! Nobody can tell a lie, and everyone trusts everyone elses word because they know it's the truth.. it's crazy because it's so unlike the world we live in, where everyone lies to everyone all day everyday. While watching this movie you start to realize how many lies people say on a daily basis. It's a good movie, funny, and original, with a creative script. It's worth watching! I wish our world could really be like this for at least one week!! I'd love to see people be true!! I'm one of those people who hate fake people, and alot of fake people hate me because I am blunt and truthful (similar to the people in this film). I think it'd be great to see people for who they really are.

THE BOX (review)

Tripp Doogan's THE BOX Movie Review

"One of the craziest movies I've ever seen!" -Tripp Doogan

A mysterious man with a disfigured face, appears at your door with a Box and an offer. In the box is a button, if you push the button you receive $1,000,000 cash, and someone you dont know will die. Would you push the button?? Better yet answer the question to yourself and then watch the movie and ask yourself the same question again after watching this crazy ass movie!! I think I can count on one hand how many times I blinked during this movie.. I was glued to the screen!! It's crazy!! It's a deep, insane mysterious movie with alot of wicked twists. A must see if you like a good mytery/suspense flick!!

NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM 2 (review)

Tripp Doogan's NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM 2 Movie Review

"More interesting than the first one, but still not a great movie" -Tripp Doogan

The museum was more elaborate (using the Smithsonian as the place where the exhibits came to life in this one), there was more entertaining things to look at and it kept you wondering which things you were gonna see come to life next. But I think they coulda' took it alot farther than they did, and could have brought a whole lot more creative displays to life. I dont know I guess it was more interesting than the first one, but still not a great movie. Some parts were kinda funny, like the slap-out with the monkeys. Pretty entertaining effects but nothing major. Good one to watch with the kids.

BULLY (review)

Tripp Doogan's BULLY Movie Review

"I remember when I was 12 my mama brought in a newspaper with the story of this Florida murder on the front page." -Tripp Doogan

Only 7 years before his death, Brad Renfro starred as Marty Puccio in BULLY. I remember when I was 12 my mama brought in a newspaper with the story of this Florida murder on the front page. At the time I first read it I didnt think much of it aside from it was just another murder in my state, by some young teens. The movie is based on the true story I read about in that newspaper, it was released on Lions Gate Films in 2001, by Larry Clark - the director of "KIDS". The movie is pretty powerful as you get to see the inside look at teenagers lives and how easily they can be lost, taken, or thrown away over bad decisions. A bully (Bobby Kent) of Cooper City was murdered by his peers in 1993 after he mentally and physically bullied them to the point where they thought plotting on a way to kill him was their only option. This movie is a must see if you have kids, and a very powerful description of a true story!

2012 (review)

Tripp Doogan's 2012 Movie Review

"2012 is larger than life... litterally! Probly the best appocalyptic movie I've seen yet!" -Tripp Doogan

2012 is about a date that was figured to be the end of the world (on 12-21-2012). Since the movie came out there's been alot of talk about if it's true or not. There's no tellin' when the end of the world is gonna be, but the crazy thing is this could be a premonition. The end could come in our lifetime, and it could be just as devastating or worse than the way the movie portrays it. 2012 deffinately makes you think about your life and your time on this planet, and how it can be over so quick with little warning! I love this movie! I'll be watching this movie many more times! The action was dope! The effects were crazy! It just keeps you on the edge of your seat the whole time! I'm gonna be gettin this one on Blu-Ray for the best visuals of it!! I already wanna watch it again. IT'S A MUST SEE.
