Mjeteconer Just perfect...
Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
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.
joseminolli I really love Richard Linklater´s work....Boyhood, The Before Trilogy, Waking life, A scanner darkly.I was actually expecting that this movie was as profound and as interesting than his other movies. But, instead of that, I spent two hours watching a film that goes nowhere. The history and its caracthers are quite dumb. They´re just stereotypes. I really don´t understand which was the motivation to film this. It´s just another dumb and empty movie about college students.
Connor Whilst watching the film, it seemed to have promise. Most of the actors did a good job; there were some well written parts and some parts that were pretty funny and entertaining. Before watching the film I read a review on here that described the film as it 'bounced around so much from topic to topic without actually getting into any of them'. I would say this is a very accurate description as I felt that nothing was really developed fully. Instead when the credits rolled I couldn't believe it was over already as nothing substantial had even happened. I felt like the beginning of the plot after we had met the characters and were waiting to see what would happen next, but that was really it, the film felt over before it even had begun!I'd have to say that Zoey Deutch did a great job despite the unfortunate and underwhelming plot.Overall, what's there of the film really isn't bad, it just feels incomplete to me with nothing really happening and no end goal or message being conveyed, which left me utterly underwhelmed.
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...
