Go Review |
by Ross Anthony |
Like "Hillary and Jackie", "Lovers of the Arctic Circle" and even "Pulp
Fiction"; "GO" tells the same story from more than one perspective -- three
in fact. Each perspective is carefully titled (ie: screen goes black, name
of character whose point of...more |

Set in a world of sex, drugs and clubbing, Go tells three stories whose
characters and action intersect with each other at several points,
giving us different perspectives on the same events throughout the film. more |

In Doug Liman's 1996 sleeper hit Swingers, he paid tribute to Quentin
Tarantino's breakthrough film Reservoir Dogs by emulating a scene in which
the main characters walk in slow motion to their cars. In his new film Go, he
pays tribute to Mr....more |

Taking a few tips from the Pulp Fiction school of filmmaking, Go is the new
feature from the director of the cult hit Swingers. The story centres around
a group of people, who include Brit Simon (Askew), and checkout girls Claire
(Holmes) and Ronna...more |

I have become sickened by all the Tarantino rip-offs, too many to mention.
Almost all have none of the grace, wit or humanity that dear Quentin invests in
his own works. They are like well-designed wallpapers flung with graphic
violence, countless...more |

Yet another brainless teen flick, this one is about, surprise, drugs
and sex. Stars Katie Holmes and Sarah Polly couldn't look more bored.
Their characters are cardboard cut-outs of every cliched teenager out
there. more |

Is _Go_ good? Depends. If you loved _Pulp Fiction, then perhaps you'd like
_Go_. Or come out disappointed. Or wonder how many plot twists from the
latter were lifted from the former. more |

Documenting the wild and unbelievable events that happen to a
collection of twentysomethings and teens in Los Angeles, the exuberant
movie, Go, is a film that doesn't feel original, yet sure is fun to

I must admit, No Doubt's single "New" is quite catchy. It was bouncy
and energetic enough to get me to go see this new film from director
Doug Limon, the man who had brought us the humorous Swingers a little
while back. The result? A movie that's...more |

Go is fun. Go is the kind of fun that makes you want a cigarette
afterwards and, a bad mark on it, leaves some of us wanting more.
The plot of Go is reminiscient of a country song I once heard: "Why Don't
We Get Drunk and Screw?" except that in...more |

/Go/ is real smooth film indeed and is one of the best films I've seen

When I sat down to watch Go, I must admit that I was expecting yet another

That is to say long on style and very short on substance. At first it seemed

Go’s is a gloriously slick hip machine. Director Liman (who also
