EVERYBODY WANTS SOME!!

EVERYBODY WANTS SOME REVIEWED

“Everybody Wants Some” is the spiritual sequel to “Dazed and Confused”. While that movie has become a 90s time capsule wank to 1976. This film wants to achieve the same thing about a period four years later, but with 23 years of distance. Does that seem crazy on a long enough timeline? When I get on these tangents, I feel myself aging by decades.

The film works as yet another timely look at youth finding themselves in a new environment. By taking his focus out of Lee High and placing it in a Texas college, Linklater has more room to flow. The world of collegiate baseball is just set dressing that brings together our cast. It’s a paper thin world that’s nothing more than a means to stay in the life and go to college. But, these guys just want to win and chase tail.

There’s something about that ending and how Linklater chose to end “Boyhood” that just keeps blowing my mind. When you see a director so confidently wrap up a grand plot…your jaw drops. Those final moments are becoming a Linklater trademark, as he flexes his ability to capitalize two or more hours of material in a final minute. That’s real talent and I’ll forever be in awe of the man. This is one of the best of 2016.
