Pour un film signé Doug Liman (!), ce n’est pas si mal, car ô surprise, c’est plutôt filmé à peu près normalement… il faut dire qu’il s’agit d’un petit budget à la limite d’un film indé et que -sans doute- le Doug n’était pas aussi bourré quePour un film signé Doug Liman (!), ce n’est pas si mal, car ô surprise, c’est plutôt filmé à peu près normalement… il faut dire qu’il s’agit d’un petit budget à la limite d’un film indé et que -sans doute- le Doug n’était pas aussi bourré que dans les autres « oeuvres » qu’il a démoulées par la suite -ou alors la coke était trop chère.

En tout cas, cette histoire qui retrace les points de vue de plusieurs protagonistes qui finissent par se rejoindre dans le dernier acte, est plutôt bien écrite. Les actions des uns, des unes et des autres se télescopent comme au billard et l’ensemble tient étonnamment bien la route.

Le problème reste l’approche tarantineuse (en version édulcorée, c’est pour les djeunzs quand même) éminemment désagréable : tous les personnages sont des caricatures qui ne font pas rire (à moins d’avoir fumé 3 pétards ?) et la provocation gratuite est de mise ainsi que le mauvais goût à tous les étages, sans parler de la vulgarité et du côté scabreux de bien des situations.

On a tout de même la mignonne Kathy Holmes et la très jolie poupée Sarah Polley pour faire passer la pillule de cette pantalonnade certes bien orchestrée mais qui manque décidément d’intelligence pour exploiter correctement son filon scénaristique.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Unpredictably entertaining

I don't know what really makes this movie so great. It could be the outstanding cast, the pitch perfect editing, the quick and funny dialog or maybe some other feature of a movie one could possibly like.

The truth is this movie couldn't been done any better. When I watch a movie I usually come up with lots of things, which could have been done better or at least differently. This time I ended up with nothing.

What amazes me the most is how they manage to define all the 10+ major characters so well, and they do it in what, less than 100 minutes. Most movies featuring many characters, fall apart cause there isn't enough screen time to present the differences among them, which just leads to a smear of unrecognizable faces. This doesn't happen with this movie for two reasons: A) All characters have at least one scene to really define themselves. B) By dividing the the film into three sub-plots you can easily relate each character to a specific sub-plot.

The tempo is very fast for 90% of the movie. There are two scenes, which have a significantly slower tempo. Those are the two scenes featuring Katie Holmes and Timothy Olyphant. First in the apartment and later in the coffee-shop. In my opinion those scenes are the best, but there is a lot to choose from so I'm not offended if yours isn't.

This movie really shows that even simple and straight forward stories, can be both unpredictable and entertaining, if they are told the right way. Add to this a pumping soundtrack, solid editing and an overall great production in an unpredictably entertaining movie, you will agree with me that Go is one of the best films ever made.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Leaves you absolutely amazed.
To me, the movie started out rather numbing, with few tidbits of comedy and it seemed like just another teen/drug movie with a great soundtrack. Five minutes later the movie showed me just how wrong I was. This movie couldn't be more aptly named, because once this movie does start to "go" it takes off and holds your attention until the end. While the writers probably weren't intending to make a comedy, some of the scenes in "Go" made me laugh more than any comedy has. Its chase scenes are riveting, and its drama is believable. Superbly directed and it really does have a great soundtrack. I highly recommend this movie.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Character error When Ronna has the idea to substitute the over-the-counter drugs for the drugs she had to flush, she asks Mannie which ones looked the most like the illicit ones because she knows he "lifted" at least one. On the other hand, she had spilled a bottle of 18 or so, and had to pick up many of these to flush them only an hour or so earlier. Plus she presumably was in a better condition to remember what they looked like than Mannie.… Expand

Simplemente una película para pasar la tarde. Muy parecida a hangover. Las historias muy predecibles y sin mucha intensidad. Para verla cuando estés aburrido y solo.

"Go" is one of the most entertaining movies about nothing. Director Doug Liman (Swingers) does a great job directing this fast paced adventure.

The storyGo is unlike any film you have ever seen and I loved every second of it! This unique comedy, from Swingers director, Doug Liman, follows a bunch of people who connect in a supermarket and follow them on their craziest weekend ever. The story is told in four parts, and follow these inevitably connected people from four different angles. As each of their stories are told, the story gets clearer and even more hilarious. This movie was a first for many TV stars on the big screen like Katie Holmes, Scott Wolf, and Jay Mohr, but it's the newcomers like Sarah Polley and Desmond Askew that make this film work. Honestly, this film has everything. It's a great story, action-packed, and hilarious, I can't recommend it enough!… Expand
