going over

Checking something carefully

Going over is examining or reviewing something carefully: Let's go over the contract before signing, The accountant is going over the books.

It can also mean crossing or traversing: going over the bridge, going over to the other side.

To give someone a going-over is to scrutinize, scold, or beat them thoroughly.
