They billed it as "Dazed and Confused" meets the 80's. It's not. It's summer 1980 so it's a bad part two of Dazed and Confused. 1980 is essentially the end of the 70's. There are no 'totally awesome' car stereos, arcades, walkmans, break dancing, rap music or electronic beats, rubics cubes, pocket Nintendo, not even a pocket tecmo bowl football game.The drinking age for beer was changed back to 21 in 1980 and these 18 year old college students are drinking beer at bars! So still waiting for 80's movie!

Not a bad movie. It's not for everyone tho. It is supposed to be the "spiritual successor" to Dazed and Confused (a MUCH better film!) but it's not in any way related at all. When I first saw this movie I actually hated it but it has grown on me since after watching it several more times. Honestly, I also hated Dazed and Confused when I first saw it but it's now one of my favorite movies! Everybody wants some isn't a bad movie, you just gotta let it grow on you I guess, like it has with me.

While I thought there were some funny lines, and a handful of winning moments, this movie fell short of what I expected after watching the trailer. The acting, directing, and dialogue were all solid and probably better than most movies released this year. However, the characters, mainly the baseball players, are all assholes. There were written that way, but I didn't relate to them and just found every single one of them so unlikable it made it hard to enjoy the movie. Whether or not this was an accurate take on college in 1980 in Southeast Texas, unless you can relate to this kind of college experience it will make the movie that much more difficult to enjoy as a breezy, nostalgic tour of youth.
