Go (1999)

Synopsis: The film narrates the events which happen to some youngsters during Christmas. First we see it from the vantage point of a young woman who is at the risk of being evicted, and takes an extra shift at the convenience store she works, covering for his friend who went to Las Vegas with his friends. Said friend is a small-time drug dealer, and when some customers at the store come looking for drugs, she sees an opportunity to make a few bucks. The second part of the movie is told from the point of view of the friend who went to Vegas; he and a pal go to a strip club where they get into big trouble. In the end, all loose ends are tied, so to speak.

Appraisal: An easy watch, with interesting characters, a sense of humor and a pace which never slackens; nothing too memorable though.

Rating: 61
