Doug Liman, director of 'Swingers' delivers another late 90's flick with a cast of young and upcoming talents centering on 3 different perspectives of a drug deal gone awry it's like 'Run Lola Run' and 'Pulp Fiction' with that bizarre and trippy narrative along with strange editing techniques Sarah Polley, Timothy Olyphant, Taye Diggs, Breckin Meyer, Scott Wolf, Katie Holmes, and William Fichtner are all thrown into the mix Ronna, Simon, and Adam all have their little adventures full of crazy antics from going to Vegas to unpaid debts to hit-and-runs and so forth even something as simple as dealing under the table creates the biggest trips I actually found this movie to be quite funny and adventurous despite the odd narrative and LSD filmmaking Liman manages to make this outing more than just a typical stoner comedy and as a non-traditional teen flick the real fun begins late at night for most of us so what's the worst that could happen?

I didn't love this movie. It hasn't aged well, the plot is thin, the characters annoying.

One of those truly "90s" films that mainly reigned in teens and young adults upon release. Sarah Polly is an actress that really stands out among her peers and carries this MTV television script to it's unremarkable end.

Newsweek

It starts to go awry in frenetic Vegas, when you realize that things happen because the screenplay it, not from any internal logic. It's the whatever school of filmmaking. "Go" has its pleasures, but I didn't really believe a word of it.

Globe and Mail

Tickled. That's the square old word that comes to mind in response to the self-consciously hip Go.

Sight & Sound

Frenetic, audaciously structured and plot-heavy, packed with enough incident for at least three films.

The immersion into into the pulse-pounding zeitgeist feels genuine and compellingly authentic as the drama unfurls through the eternal Day-Glo night.

When Go is running at full power, it's the equal to any other pseudo-Pulp Fiction out there.
