It's a little formulaic and Pc even but it gets the job done and is a nice break from doom and gloom and constant super hero and fantasy movies. There's not many surprises in store but the story is told with good talent and I never got bored. I had difficulty settling on whether this movie was set in the present or in the past. I lived in Busselton WA for a while in the eighties and the cars and homes used in the movie would have been old back then even. Even the computer games shown seem from way back. But smartphones and the 'net seem to exist so I guess it's just a grungy version of the present we're being thrown into. I liked the two young leads a lot and I reckon we can expect to see more of them. It's like old school Disney family entertainment. And it unashamedly owes a lot to 'karate kid', not that the kids this was made for would even know what that was anymore?
Just watched this and I must say that I didn't like the outside spin outs all the time, so predictable but overall a very good film.
I really enjoyed GO! as did my two daughters 15 and 9. Easy viewing, great cinematography, strong acting from the cast includung the younger ones. View it for what it is - fun clean family movie (that is predictable) but has good messages throughout. Great that it was filmed in West Australia - showed off the beautiful South West
It's a cool movie, even if this story has been repeated in other movies... This movie Is well made, from the cinematic part of the races to how the actors acted...
"Go Karts" (2020) is a teen mixed version of "Ford v Ferrari" (2019) and "The Karate Kid" (1984). The kids actors here have kind of a natural charm. Though the dialogue is bland and story is watery, surface-level and predictable, the racing action is actually very engaging. If you're looking for a warm heart movie to watch with your family/children, you could do worse than "Go Karts".
