Go Fish

My one question is...what is the name of the song at the VERY end of the movie? When Max & Eli are walking on the rocks? Who is the artist? Unfortunately, the credits do not reflect this song at all. Anyone out there have any ideas?

Thanks, L


Horrible acting--i swear someone made this in their basement   September 10, 2000

The reason this movie was so highly acclaimed is because it has some touching moments, a controversial topic, and is funny at times. The idea of the movie is far better than the movie itself. And it has some of the worst acting and lines you've ever seen, and most of it looks like some poor schmuck had kids do this in his basement after giving them 5 minutes to memorize the whole script. And the budget for this movie had to be ultra cheap because the camera and sound quality are poor and even annoying at times. Reminds me of early John Waters films--but his are comedies and the poor quality makes them funnier. With Go Fish, it's just really, really bad. I watched it on cable years ago and my mom walked in and thought I was watching something my friends made up for fun. Don't waste your money.


the worst   January 18, 2001

Oh...My...God... This is the worst movie I have ever seen in my life. I don't know much about lesbians but when I have my bicurious fantasies I would like to think of them as anything other than the women in this movie. You know, when I look at the box cover I just have to laugh at how easily I was duped by this ridiculous black and white spectacle. Believe me, none of the women in this movie look remotely like the girl on the cover and... I could go on and on. Overall, the movie was terrible, the plot was boring, the acting was ...ill, and just about everything bad you read in these reviews is probably true.


I loved it!!!   October 25, 2001

Most people do not give this movie the second chance that it needs. The first time I watched it, I didn't like it. The second time, I realized the depth of the movies meaning. It deals with soooo many of todays issues. It definately focuses on the predjudice WITHIN the lesbian community and how we judge each other unfairly! I own this movie and watch it at least 4-5 times a year. The acting isn't great but, it has a meaning that is worth overlooking it's pitfalls. The love story is a nice touch. I recommend this movie to anyone who will watch it and LISTEN to the deeper, more meaningful sections of the story.


Watch the L-Word Instead?   May 5, 2004

I can't believe that someone actually suggested watching the L-Word instead of this movie. I will agree the movie is low budget and the acting is not at all polished but for me, that is exactly what makes it so genuine and honest. Yes, anyone today could pick up a camera and make a black and white film about lesbians. It would probably even be backed by Disney....because gay life is trendy. Ten years ago it was risky and you know this film was not made in the hopes of grabbing stacks of cash. The characters are tangible and believable in that they are acting from experience and not because they spent a month in a dyke bar researching a role. Everytime my roommate watches the L-word I say to myself "damn, this storyline can't get any cheesier"..and always to my amazement, it does just that. The only reason the L-Word would be more entertaining than Go Fish is because of how absolutely ridiculous it is. I recommend watching Go Fish not because it is a huge blockbuster Hollywood hit but rather because it isn't. And that is definitely a refreshing change.
