Go
(Columbia TriStar)
Doug Liman's second film is takes
place on Christmas Eve and offers three versions of the same events in the
lives of porcelain-pretty-but-tough-as-nails Ronna (Sarah Polley), an
18-year-old supermarket checkout clerk who needs rent money; her obnoxious
British co-worker Simon (a feral Desmond Askew); and two charming strangers,
Adam (Scott Wolf) and Zack (Jay Mohr), out to score some ecstasy from Ronna,
who enlists the help of strait-laced Claire (Katie Holmes) and drug-addled
Mannie (Nathan Bexton). Liman shows that he's got style and intelligence, but
without the passion he showed in Swingers, he's all dressed up with
nowhere to go.
