The movie genre is not very uncommon, but it is still fun to watch. The twists and turns in the plot may not blow your mind away but are interesting and entertaining in their own way. The screenplay is awesome. The story is told from different perspectives and maintains a very fast pace all through out. You will be glued to your seat and wondering what is going to happen next. No part of the movie seemed boring or dragging as such to me. The actors would have had a tough time as the story gives no character hardly any time to establish their place in the plot. Nevertheless, everything simplifies as the story moves on. And it is funny. Not the clichéd slapstick,SITCOM comedy sort of funny, but the psychedelic,satirical,ironical sort of funny. Definitely fun to watch.

Fmovies: Films this clever are few and far between. Most scriptwriters find it hard enough to come up with one intelligent storyline to keep the audience entertained, but Go manages to intertwine multiple stories running parallel. In true, unashamed Pulp Fiction style these cross over at several points, with the main characters bumping into one another (at times in a literal sense). All of these stories, set in the festive season, seem to revolve around a drug-deal-gone-wrong, and the action flits backwards and forwards to those involved in each story. If this sounds like incoherent babble, watch the film, it makes more sense than I do.

In a possible masterstroke, the cast is made up mostly of comparative-unknowns (even boasting an old cast member of English school drama Grange Hill). This immediately dispels any delusions of Hollywood grandeur and clichés – this stuff is fresh. A superb young cast shows the characters making molehills into mountains, and mountains into … bigger mountains. At no point do these actors slip into the laziness we see so often in teenage films and TV programmes and we feel empathy for all of the main characters at one point or another.

From a fantastic soundtrack to astounding camerawork, distinctly above average originality to one of the wittiest scripts of any recent film, Go is always throwing something unexpected into the faces of the audience. Admittedly, Go treads little brand new ground, and borders on the cliché happy endings that America demands, but it is not afraid to try old ideas in new ways and combinations. Pulp Fiction has been succeeded and improved upon by its own offspring.

I liked this movie well enough to watch it twice. I waited 'til it came out on video, but made sure to see it, because it stars Sarah Polley, who I've been a fan of since her "Road to Avonlea" days. This is not a serious movie. It's fun, upbeat, quick, and for those with short attention spans. I liked it. I didn't think it was as incredible as some say, but enjoyable enough to watch it twice. So many people have compared it to Pulp Fiction. Frankly, the only similarity I see between the two, is the "jumping around timelines". Which I like. Good movie to watch, just don't bother trying to analyze it - you won't come up with much.

Go fmovies. A little gem of a movie, an excellent follow-up (but not sequel) to the fantastic "Swingers".

Sarah Polley is worth the price of admission alone, for her excellent performance. She is supported by an equally excellent cast including Taye Diggs, Scott Wolf, Katie Holmes, Jay Mohr, and Timothy Olyphant - among others.

Many viewed this movie as being an MTV version of Tarantino's "Pulp Fiction" and, while this may to an extent me true, it is obviously much more than that; and an excellent stand-alone movie of it's own.

Split into 3 separate storylines which clash and collide along the way, finally merging as the movie comes to a close, this movie constantly keeps the viewer on edge; and provides an excellent example of the drug/club etc. scene of the 90's and 00's.

Favourite scene has to be: where the teens in the car (in the first storyline) are convinced they're 'going up', as they believe they're on Es - but are really on aspirin and allergy medicine! Fantastic!!!!

Funny, edgy, fast-paced with a sharp script, strong cast, and excellent soundtrack.

One of my favorite films of all time. Hip, like Pulp Fiction, it's just crazy-insane fun. Not for everyone, due to language and drugs, but I really LOVED it! There are also so MANY cameos of great actors we know and love today.

Director Doug Liman has gone on to do HUGE, great movies, such as The Bourne Identity and Mr and Mrs Smith. Here we see some of his early talent.

Just a great, fun movie, that hasn't seen been seen by as many people as it should.

Go has not gotten even half of the praise it deserves. The script is genius and the fast paced directing and cinematography are totally the reason to see something in the theatre rather than video. And this is not just another "oh this is my favorite movie, so it has to be great" reviews, there are facts. The epic Godfather, ranked as the best movie ever created by a human being, is lucky if it goes for 20 minutes without having the sound lose sync with the mouth movement. Not that I'm totally knocking it. And also, everyone says, "oh Go is the son of Pulp Fiction", "a lesser Pulp Fiction", but the fact is the it's structure has much more in common with the other Tarantino great Jackie Brown. Rent this to see what great cinema is.
