The best Pulp Fiction rip-off in a long time.

First telling of the story, weak; second and third perspectives extremely entertaining and very cleverly intertwined.

Fast-paced and often witty, but ultimately vapid.

Possibly the most sheer fun you'll have at a movie all year, but be warned: Go's narcotic rush proves addictive.

More than anything, Liman does extraordinary work with his dazzling young cast, a parade of future stars if ever I've seen one.

A disaster film with an exceedingly witty premise. Instead of a terrorist, volcano, or extraterrestrial invasion, catastrophe is precipitated by the madcap behavior of rash and reckless American youth.

When the writing is good, Go is good, and when the writing is flat, things fall apart.
