GamerTab That was an excellent one.
PodBill Just what I expected
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
teddyryan EVERYBODY WANTS SOME feels much less a companion piece to BOYHOOD (as Richard Linklater has stated) than a reshaping of the iconic DAZED AND CONFUSED. Shots, events and character types of both movies show us the antics of unsupervised young adults run wild, although now the setting is college - not high school (I would liken it to the Goodfellas/Casino relationship). As a result, it's impossible to watch or rate Everybody Wants Some without comparing to its 1993 predecessor. The different characters from Everybody Wants Some (and the actors they play them), however, aren't as vibrant as the ones from Dazed And Confused, making it a far from a masterpiece. Not to mention, Linklater (who is known for his impeccable authenticity in casting) cast the oldest-looking group of 25/30 year old actors you could find, making it hard to buy them as college kids. Furthermore, the lead - a confident baseball player arriving for his first year on campus - played by Blake Jenner - falls disappointingly short of the typical Linklater hero. The whole script, which follows Jenner and an overabundant number of his college baseball teammates, does have a few moments to grab laughs but it keeps being dragged down by its lack of personalities. That being said, Linklater has the remarkable ability to find the truth in young adult life and verbalize it unlike most fictional storytellers and he delivers here. Unfortunately, in contrast to his high calibre of work, he's fallen a little off the base with this one. Ted's Grade: A disappointing B minus for an A student.
zbuster I freaking love this movie!! It's simple and satisfying, just perfect. Lots of good laughs. A feel good college baseball experience.
jasonmcguire-17134 Being an 80s person was looking for some good nostalgia feels or fun dazed and confused feels or maybe even some baseball. unfortunately it fell quite short in all those categories. i think that's the issue; tried to be all of those but didn't quite get close to anything. pretty disappointing and that sucks had good potential in the first 20 mins but didn't go anywhere. unless you played baseball in college i would skip.
regas As a huge fan of Dazed and Confused, yes, I actually saw it first in a movie theater, this movie stunk so bad I can't believe it actually got released at all. Even the out-take rap video at the end sucked so bad. Some of the lines were good and the music was spot on, but who wrote this movie really? Were they professional writers or high school kids? I kept going back and looking for something positive to say and I honestly can't think of a thing. Oh, the 442 was cool. If this is all you got left in your Rich, time to hang up your spurs. Really...
