Synopsis: I liked it. Sure it had some Pulp Fiction similarities, but the narrative style was completely different. As were the tone and manner in which the 3 stories were presented. What I liked most about Go was its unpredictability. From the onset the audience was forced to play the part of a silent witness to the events unfolding on screen. GO, the second film from Director Doug Liman (Swingers) is a good effort. My only complaint is that things get a little choppy in the last 15 minutes. Liman strays from the narrative tone set earlier in the picture when he jumps from the end of the third story to a finishing segment centered on the Katie Holmes character. That little nit-pick aside, Go is an excellent movie. Special Features :The Go DVD came with a lot of special features, but I didn't feel that any of them were really that good. The 3 music videos were just that, music videos. Who gives a flying fuck? As for the deleted scenes, it was apparent why they were deleted. After watching the first few (of the dozen-odd on the disc) I became eager to find one that justified the time spent watching. My search was fruitless. The deleted scenes on this DVD are a waste of time. The Making of Go featurette was a little boring, but I had already seen the movie. Perhaps if I hadn't, it would have held my interest longer. The commentary track by Liman and Steven Marioni was standard fare. Although it did give insights into every stage of the production, it lacked any real pay off. Don't get me wrong, I've really enjoyed both movies that Liman has made, but listening to him drone on about it for an hour & half was a little tedious.
