David Ansen Newsweek Mar 3, 2018
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. Go to Full Review

3/4
Tickled. That's the square old word that comes to mind in response to the self-consciously hip Go. Go to Full Review
John Wrathall Sight & Sound Mar 5, 2002
Frenetic, audaciously structured and plot-heavy, packed with enough incident for at least three films. Go to Full Review

3/4
Clever, fast-paced, yet naggingly Tarantino-esque. Go to Full Review
Jeff Beck The Blu Spot Sep 28, 2026
3/5
It does indeed have some fun & exciting bits to it, and it's interesting to see this ensemble of stars & stars-on-the-rise bring it to life, but in the end, it just can't help feeling like a somewhat pale imitation of what it was aspiring to be. Go to Full Review
Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand Sep 5, 2025
Doug Liman stitches together a hip jigsaw puzzle of a film with sharp dialogue, cinematic pinnace, and interwoven storylines.... Think of it as a 'Pulp Fiction' for the twentysomething LA underground scene. Go to Full Review

Finn W May 28, 2018 Quite a trippy piece of gold... cool, funny, clever and unforgiving. Career defining performances for some, career launching performances for others! You will love it If you liked Run Lola Run, Memento, Rules of Attraction or 11:15 and even Pulp Fiction... See more
Rey S May 11, 2018 One of my favorite movies form the 90's, this is a fantastic film that is a lot of fun.
Theodore M Apr 12, 2018 This is one of those movie that wouldn't exist if Tarantino chose to be a lawyer instead of a director. (luckily he made the right call). It's a messy and entertaining triptyque, a clear son of the 90s that arrives in the year of our Lord 2018 with half of it's original power. Things are just going on randomly, and if that was the point of the movie, which I am not sure, should have been done better! See more
Ron M Nov 16, 2017 The energy on display and lack of linear focus mirror the mindset of this cast of wayward tweenties, struggling through what must be a typical day before the next typical day. See more
Hermione W Aug 16, 2017 A sometimes off-beat, sometimes on-beat, zany version of Pulp Fiction.
Ron W Aug 4, 2017 Three different stories all intertwined together. One is about a rave. Another is about two gay actors. The second one is my favorite about 4 guys who take a trip to Vegas. Funny, thrilling, campy, romantic, and sexual. One of my all time favorites. See more
