Go: **1/2
"Go" is an odd movie. It tells three different stories that take place at the same time. The idea was neat. But they didn't do enough with it. It was neat when they went back to the same scene and then a different character and his/her story. The best story was the first one involving Sarah Polley. The one with the group of guys (Taye Diggs and others) was the worst.
The movie is filled over the top with sex and drugs. Not cool. It's just unnecessary. It does play a part in the plot, but they didn't need to show EVERYTHING. The plot involving the most sex is the worst. It involves a stripper, but they could have made it so there wasn't that much sex. Then Simon Baines (Desmond Askew) was so annoying. He did things he wasn't supposed to. He did things people told him not to do. I mean, come on. We can do better than that. The movie could have been so smart and clever, but it took the easy way out. And the easy way wasn't enough.
