Everybody Wants Some!!

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Nostalgic in the best sense, Everybody Wants Some!! finds Richard Linklater ambling through the past with a talented cast, a sweetly meandering story, and a killer classic rock soundtrack.

B-
While Everybody Wants Some!! isn't a great movie, there is something comforting about its predictability, self-awareness, and ability to basically recapture the plot of every single end-of-school-year/beginning-of-school-year teen/early 20s storyline. Go to Full Review

3/4
The movie respects its audience in a way few of these coming-of-age comedies ever do, and while not a home run for Linklater, it's still a solid triple off the wall I'm certain to still be cheering for throughout the remainder of 2016. Go to Full Review

3/5
There's no storyline. The script just drifts from one vignette to the next as the boys cruise around, ogling girls, haunting the campus night spots and staging a party while their house does its best to remain standing under their assaults. Go to Full Review

A meandering, conversational, yet completely rewatchable joy of masculine college innocence. Go to Full Review

…even if the sports movie is a generally a turn-off for you, there’s lots here to enjoy, from a young, hip cast to a typically eclectic soundtrack… Go to Full Review

In spite of its somewhat domesticated style, the film doesn't suffer from fascinating internal tensions. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Lucas B. @lukekhowsbest 5d Super solid movie. Classic Linklater. Nothing to write home about but must watch and very solid addition to Linklaters collection. See more Jayson M Nov 9 One of my favorite movies. Great cast, fun story about kids just having a great time. This it the movie I put on when I want to smile and it is a movie that just makes you feel good. I know many consider Dazed and Confused Linklater's mater piece but I think this movie is it. Highly recommended. See more Jeffrey P Jun 19 The follow-up to the cult classic, Dazed & Confused, though not connected in any way. I put off watching it for so long because I heard nothing good about it, which makes sense as there is inherently less broad appeal. If those sentiments were wrong, I’d have been surprised. The characters are all the same, there’s no contrasting styles and from there it’s just something entirely different than Dazed & Confused, which had more and better direction. This just felt like it wasn’t going anywhere. The ending was absolutely nothing and was made even worse by the fact that there was no journey towards it. It didn’t seem like there was much of a soundtrack either. Is it an accurate depiction of the days before classes at a university or college, yes, but... it just doesn’t work like Dazed & Confused did, for whatever reason, who knows? See more Nelson R Mar 15 The movie sucks bad! Is like sitting and wasting your time and you know it. At least give me a movie that my time doesn't feel is wasted. Just talking and being witty with each other, no plot or nothing happening. Just sucks. See more thiago s @Thiagostone Mar 4 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, o filme tem cenas fracas, o elenco não ajuda em porra nenhuma, e o filme tem uma história fraca e com personagens fracos, que não tem nada demais o filme todo, o filme até teve uma trilha sonora bacana mas não acrescentou em nada para o filme. See more Mason M Jan 20 A wonderful return to form for Linklater, Everybody Wants Some!! proves that the director has still got it in him to make a movie about nothing with amazing character dynamics and some of the best dialogue in Hollywood.
