Jack is a charismatic larrikin who has just discovered the one thing he's really good at go-kart racing. With the support of his mentor, Patrick, an old race car driver with a secret past, and his best mates Colin and Mandy, Jack must learn to control his recklessness if he is to defeat the best drivers in Australia, including the ruthless champion Dean, and win the National title.


Critic reviews of title

“Warmly embracing a well-oiled formula, all-ages crowd-pleaser Go! treats the underdog sports drama genre like a racetrack – sticking to the course, taking the inside lane through the expected conventions, and doing so with dash and flair.”

• Screen International

“The racing sequences bring out the best in [director Owen] Trevor… Unlike so many action directors, he's not addicted to the kind of choppy editing that sacrifices narrative sense for kinetic energy. He keeps you informed.”

• Sydney Morning Herald

“If it turned out the original pitch for Go! was "The Karate Kid but with go-carts”, then… well, there are plenty of worse kids movies to be inspired by"
