Go

Go; Casting is done to perfection for this multi-narrative piece that tells three stories that occur independent and intertwined within 24 hours. Mixing equal parts drama, comedy, and action, the film is a constant joyride. Diggs is a true breakout, as is Polley in their take charge roles. Mohr and Wolf supply the biggest surprise in their feature piece, a story that plays with all preconceptions. The pacing is kinetic, the direction exquisite. A movie about teens that doesn't belittle teens. In fact, despite the occasional forced dialogue this film is more grown up than most Hollywood fables. Successfully breaking up the linear narrative, so that time bends and characters come in and out of play is only one reason why this film is so captivating!; A-
