VHS Movie Reviews of Go Now

Movie Review: One of my favorites
Summary: 5 Stars

Robert Carlyle gives a very moving performance in this riveting film. It deals with MS in a very real way.

Movie Review: Captures the real deal with soul, compassion and humor
Summary: 5 Stars

Shortly after my MS diagnosis, my girlfriend at the time excitedly told me about this movie she saw in a local bargain art movie house on a free day. We rented the movie, and wow... obviously I'm closer to the subject than most, having MS, but dealing with adjustment, pain, and self-identity all while trying to stay connected to those close to us is the universal human condition, right? Robert Carlyle is great as usual. The icing on the cake was the terrific soundtrack. While Carlye's character is given a spinal tap, 'Three', by Massive Attack, plays in the background: 'Three's my lucky number, And fortune comes in threes... Oh, I'm missing everything I knew... Yet wish i knew nothing at all...' A soulful look at when your number comes up.

Movie Review: Simply The Truth...
Summary: 5 Stars

Honest example of life on the inside of an extraordinary MS-tery

Movie Review: A Heart Touching Story
Summary: 4 Stars

"Go Now" is one of those foreign film love stories that'll tug at your heart strings the moment you realize the main character's fate. Robert Carlyle (The Full Monty) stars as Scottish soccer player Nick Cameron, who, when just upon reaching the apex of his full athletic potential, is suddenly and gradually stricken with Multiple Sclerosis. As Nick's physical condition worsens, it is up to his girlfriend Karen (Juliet Aubrey) to help Nick see his way through his difficult struggle. Karen is urged at the hands of her best friend to leave Nick, but she (Karen) feels she needs to be around him to be of help and for added companionship. At the same time, Karen feels she is missing out sexually, so she is seeing someone else in the meantime to satisfy her needs in this department. Still, she feels Nick needs her, who, because he feels that Karen feels sorry for him, Nick urges her to leave him, but she refuses. "Go Now" is a heart-warming story that'll possibly bring a tear to your eye. The main problem with this picture is that it's extermely short, at under an hour-and-a-half long. Despite this minor inconvenience, "Go Now is a must-have film to add to your video collection!

Movie Review: Reality bites
Summary: 4 Stars

Typical of european films Go Now takes a very small slice of life and puts it under a microscope. Here a working class couple are shown dealing-or not-with the everyday issues which arise when he is stricken with ms. The film accuratly reveals the impact of the disease process on every aspect of the couple's life. The acting is powerful and truthful. The subtext reveals the strengths and weaknesses of the human spirit when challenged by life altering circumstances.
