Owen Gleiberman is a film critic for EW
This bracing documentary is a chronicle of small-town sports fanaticism in Massillon, Ohio, and though the film takes in the community's obsession with its high school football team, the Massillon Tigers, from every imaginable angle, there's nothing detached in its attitude. Director Kenneth A. Carlson gained empathetic access to the players, the families, the beer-bong parties. Beautifully edited, Go Tigers! is an enthralling look at how much drama can transpire in the autumn of one small town on any given Friday.
