“After the dramatic one-two punch of Before Midnight and Boyhood, a master of the modern hangout movie achieves his most sustained comic bliss-out in years with Everybody Wants Some!! Billed quite accurately as a ‘spiritual sequel’ to 1993’s Dazed and Confused, Richard Linklater’s acutely funny, achingly perceptive retro-sociology lesson follows a team of ’80s college baseball players wasting a longish weekend together before the start of a new school year; many scenes of pot smoking, disco dancing, knuckle flicking, skirt chasing and other forms of competitive male sport (and some baseball here and there) predictably and hilariously ensue. Linklater indulges his characters’ antics with such wild, free-flowing affection that you might miss the thoughtful undertow of this delightful movie: Few filmmakers have so fully embraced the bittersweet joy of living in the moment — one that’s all the more glorious because it fades so soon.” –Justin Chang; Variety
