Plot: Director/cinematographer Doug Liman's third feature links together three edgy stories, all beginning in the same Los Angeles supermarket with an interconnected group of characters. Ronna (Sarah Polley) is a down-on-her-luck checkout girl who is sweet talked into taking an extra shift from her friend Simon (Desmond Askew) so he can go to Las Vegas. Ronna is then approached by two good-looking actors, Adam (Scott Wolf) and Zack (Jay Mohr), who want to buy drugs. Ronna, who needs money, plans to act as a go-between between the actors and a dealer friend of Simon's, Todd (Timothy Olyphant), until a cop named Burke (William Fichtner) enters the picture. Meanwhile, Simon is living it up in Vegas; in the course of a very wild night on the town, he manages to bed two women, accidentally steal a car with his good friend Marcus (Taye Diggs), and get thrown out of the best strip club in town, with more than a few people after him, especially when he leaves behind a credit card he borrowed from Todd. Once again back at the supermarket, Adam and Zack turn out to not be quite what they seemed, and their relationship with Burke and his wife Irene (Jane Krakowski) takes an unexpected turn as their evening becomes very, very complicated. Go, Liman's long-awaited follow-up to his indie hit Swingers, received its World Premiere at the 1999 Sundance Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

A storyline that's told from different perspectives; all plotlines follow one definitive event in the histories of the characters. The cast is filled with semi-big names: Katie Holmes, Sarah Polley, Jay Mohr, William Fletcher, Scott Wolf, but at the end, everyone's role is somewhat minuscule. The ending of the film is whimsical, if unrealistic. This movie is fluffy, at best, but is, at times, exciting to watch nonetheless.

This movie blows!
Added 6/6/2009

I did not like this movie at all. The cover said this was a dark comedy but I did not laugh at anything. There was a scene where a guy got laid by two chicks and there was a cool car chase but not much else. It repeats the story 3 times and that was so annoying to me. I give this movie 2 stars because I was at least entertained enough to watch the whole thing and the soundtrack was awesome.

Brilliant, clever, darkly funny
Added 2/5/2009

This movie works on many levels-- both as an action flick, and as a dark comedy. Each of the three stories is engaging, and all of the characters feel real and fully fleshed. It's just one of those movies that comes perfectly together--story, characters, action, music, everything...

Maybe it's a generational thing

I tried. My wife and I watched about 20-25 minutes with an open mind trying like heck to see what the good reviews are about. It's not that the movie is terrible in the conventional sense. The acting is fine, and it has a moment or two to make you smile. Unfortunately though, it is mind-numbingly boring. We're both mid-30s, so maybe the new generation has different tastes, but at the 20+ minute mark we both looked at each other and decided that this was a complete waste of money and time. Luckily it only cost three bucks, but that's three bucks I didn't get any value for. I won't subject anyone else to this. The good news is that the DVD case has been recycled. The bad news is that the DVD is now part of our local landfill. I just wish DVDs were recyclable.
