I wanted to love this. I really did. It stars actors I adore, it is written and directed by someone I admire, I was fascinated by the story. I went in full of optimism.
I'm sad to say, I did not like it at all.
I did not like any of the characters, half of whom felt under explored and the other half were just unpleasant. I also felt like the ending wasn't a great fit.
I don't want this to become a bash on this film. I'm sure other people have enjoyed it, it just didn't mesh for me.

Over the course of 1 year I plan to review every movie I watch. A small task, you'd think, but I'm the kind of girl who sits and watches 6 movies in a row. I try to go to the cinema at least twice a week. I'll watch any movie that's on the TV. I have more DVDs than I do socks (and I love socks). Blogging starts September 24. This could be interesting...
Time Well Spent...

Let's think about this logically. She's either alive, or she's dead.

Film: Go (1999)
Director: Doug Liman
Starring: Katie Holmes, Sarah Polley and Timothy Olyphant
Running Time: 1 hour 42 minutes
Rating: 8.5/10
One of my favourite parts of the week, Sunday Night Movie Club and this week, after a lot of deliberating, we decided to watch Go (or I was told we were watching Go as soon as I mentioned that I hadn't seen it before!).
It was a great choice, with a cast of many a familiar face from the 90s, and Katie Holmes before it all went a bit wrong (the period we refer to as 'the Tom Cruise years'). Go tells the story of one night from a few different perspectives; drugs, parties, relationships, and everything going a little bit wrong.
