To go is the infinitive form of the verb. Here, it introduces the phrase that serves as the direct object of the verb wanted.

In the sentence: I wanted to go to the movies. What part of speech is "GO" in the sentence?

I wanted to go to the movies.

The two words together "to go" is an infinitive. "to" is a particle, and "go"is the base verb.
The reduced (infinitive) clause "to go to the movies" is a noun clause, the direct object of the verb "wanted."
