Go

In this world a quick fix sure beats struggle town as a supermarket check out operator. It's only wrong if you get caught. The morality of all of this is I suppose a symptom of the nineties, but lawlessness seems to be very, very hip these days and that's not good!

You'd have to wonder how much more valent this type of thinking is going to become as the middle classes become poorer and more desperate in Australia.

Ronna (a stunning performance from Sarah Polley) needs the rent fast and decides to deal Ecstasy. Meanwhile Simon (Desmond Askey) is off to Vegus with his mate Marcus (Taye Diggs) where they get into strife with the local thugs.

And Adam and Zack (Scott Wolf and Jay Mohr) are on a drug sting with questionable cop Burke (William Fitchner).

The three stories develop together and loop back to meet as the film climaxes. Go is very Pulp Fiction. And it's nearly as much fun.

Go gets along at a furious pace, is suitably goulish and is lifted by smart direction and principal photograpy from Doug Liman (Swingers). The soundtrack is bouncy and happily not from the same era as Tarantino's Pulp Fiction - that would have been far too much.

A telepathic cat, the Macarena and a very enthusiastic policeman are only three elements of a plot that provides fast paced and clever entertainment.

Go will please many patrons, and a surprising ending adds an unexpected warm glow to what had been up until then a veering lawless lunge.
