The Go-Getters

The Go-Getters had been on my radar for a little while. The poster stood out from the rest and the premise was interesting: A deadbeat drunk, Owen and a junkie hooker, Lacie join forces to take on the city, each other, and their own personal shortcomings while trying to scam $98 for bus tickets out of town. I like both our main characters, and I'll say they both have good chemistry. I'll also say that the way they play off each other comedically is very good, I had a lot of chuckles and some laughs. Not that I want to insult the movie, but this movie plays best when you're having a really 'meh' day; not a sh$t day, but a really 'meh' sort of day, it'll actually make your day. Has a lot of 'gross' but darkly humorous moments that'll catch you off guard. The more serious moments also work themselves into the storyline very well, especially with Owen's brother Kevin. I wish this movie had been a little big longer, at least to have more comedic moments between Owen and Lacie, they really do have a lot of good chemistry.

I'm looking forward to director Jeremy LaLonde's next movie, and I'm giving The Go-Getters a 6 out of 10

An other Master-Piece from my fav' one Jeremy Lalonde and such these fabulous peeps I knew thanks to his work I follow. A great moment spent watching this crazy-awesome movie ! Thanks !

A tale of learning that sometimes you think it's better running away from your problems than dealing with them. Entertaining take on it.

I don't usually write reviews - this is my first one on IMDB.

Usually with smaller productions like this you have a ton of fake reviews and usually they're pretty dismal.

But I'm in Scotland, UK - and have just watched this movie.

And I have to give credit to the cast and crew! It's brilliant!!

Much better than expected. I've given it 9/10 and that's VERY high for me.

Mainly because of how hard they tried, the humour, the cast, and all done on a budget. But looked professional enough to be a mainstream movie.

It was very engrossing and addictive. I really could connect with the characters.

So do yourself a favour - and watch it!

It may not be to everyone's taste - but my GF & I thought it was a lot of fun and we're in our 40's!

What can I say...Very cool! Non stop pure entertainment, never once did I get bored or think about fast forwarding. Wish it was an tv series so it could go on and on and on! Kind of reminded me of "It's always sunny in Philadelphia", without the filtered cussing. Real people, real cussing, real world.....not the disney type conservative filtered version comedy, Definitely not for kids or family!. For the record I consider myself conservative but hate censorship in any form. Yeah, there were not realistic parts but that's all part of comedy in my opinion. Just a real fun movie. Wish there was much more.....

I don't review movies often, but I just had to say something. This movie will leave me thinking....I enjoyed it that much!
