Rec. #400: Go


What: You know the '90s are back, right? Welcome back to 1999, with the musical accompaniment of Fatboy Slim.

One night takes Sarah Polley, Katie Holmes, Scott Wolf, Jay Mohr, Timothy Olyphant, and Taye Diggs through various misadventures (drug deals gone wrong, car theft, raves, an accidental shooting, vehicular manslaughter) in L.A. and Las Vegas.

Two things I had forgotten or not realized about this movie:

  • It has a crazy cast, including early appearances from Jane Krakowski and Melissa McCarthy.
  • It takes place at Christmas time. What a way to celebrate.

Comparable to: Pulp Fiction, Swingers, Playing by Heart, Run Lola Run

Representative dialogue:
"It really didn't go as bad as it could have."
"A girl is dead, Zack."
"I didn't say it went perfectly."

How to get it: Buy, rent, or borrow
