Go is a refreshingly novel, upbeat and very modern film that slickly blends elements of comedy, action and crime together, all tinged with a little teen angst to appeal to the young crowd. And it's all done very well. The characters lives and infact themselves aren't delved into too deeply; it's the story and events that take place that is on display. This movie is really something of a joyride. I have never been involved in a joyride situation in real life (being the fine, young upstanding citizen I am), uh, ahem, but if one could capture the pure essence of a joyride (minus the 'breaking the law' part) and infuse it into film, you'd end up with Go. A great discovery and a film that truly understands what its' own medium's strength is - escapism! A must see.

Similar to pulp fiction? Yes. But that becomes easily forgivable because frankly its better.
James gave it a 10:
This is my favorite movie of all time. I'm not saying it is the best movie of all time just my favorite. It is fun, exciting, funny, dark and witty. I have never seen a movie that I wanted to hang out with the characters more than this film. GO buy this DVD, video, whatever... see this movie! GO, GO NOW!
Gilbert gave it an 8:
Rip-off of Pulp Fiction? Oh dear God, yes. Good movie? Very much so. "Go" - see it! Tee hee hee! (suddenly gets shot through lung)
Dale C. gave it a 10:
If for no other reason, see this movie for the music. It's fantastic. It's probably the best renter out there.
Ryan M. gave it a 10:
If you cross "Road Trip," "Pulp Fiction," and "Memento" you get something like "Go" -- it's hilarious and raucous and looks to be a cool summer movie! A fast-paced, exhilarating, and awesomely neo-cool experience.
Jimmy C. gave it a 10:
Amazing film, clever, witty and funny. Rent it if you haven't seen it.
