Movie Review of Go

In most movies you only see the story from the main character, sometimes you will see it from the perspective of many people. In "Go" a movie directed by Doug Liman (Swingers), you see the story of one crazy night from the perspective of four people. "Go" became an excellent movie thanks to the directing by Doug Liman, the unknown cast and a newcomer screenwriter. These three pieces put together made a movie that made seventeen million dollars at the box office.

Doug Liman did a great job directing this film, showing here just as he did in his debut film "Swingers" he has a great eye for creating very screwy characters (Rogerebert.com), and can do extraordinary work with young cast (Entertainment Weekly). It seems that Liman has hit a winning formula for creating a great film, the formula consist of finding a terrific script written by an unknown screen writer and then doing a first rate job of filming and casting it.

"Doug Liman's "Go". This is an entertaining black comedy that takes place entirely in Tarintino Land, greatly following the foot steps of "Pulp Fiction". While there are many positive things that can be said about "Go" pluggedin.com said it was nothing but a "A veritable manifesto on how teens can score drugs and sex in the underground party scene of Los Angeles." Meaning it's not a movie a responsible parent would take their child with to go see. FilmCritic.com gave excellent views on the movie they said it was a seamier look at life than "Swingers", brilliantly deconstructing Generation "X" life in latter-day Los Angeles, giving a new perspective on rave culture, drug dealers, the lure of Vegas and even Amway dealership. "Go" will change the way you view the L.A. party scene. Filmcritic.com also said, "Really awry. Completely unpredictable Hilarious all of it vaguely unified through the phrase "Go". You will find this movie to be extremely hilarious.

"Go" is a movie with a lot of unknown people in it; the most noticeable would be Sarah Polley who was in "The Sweet Hereafter", but the movie still has "energy and wit and the performances are right for the material." (rogerebert.com). The best acting was done by the delicate yet fierce Sarah Polley, the charismatic Taye Doggs and the terse quibbling hilariously neurotic
