Movie Review: Few, if at all any, portrays youth as Richard Linklater does. Ever since the breakthrough with “Dazed and Confused” has Linklater told about youth momentary and fragile intoxication (often literally) with a responsiveness few others can match. It peaked possibly with last year’s “Boyhood”, where Linklater during a 12-year period depicted both extra- and very ordinary at a normal upbringing.
“Everybody Wants Some !!” he takes for taking the fleeting euphoria macho culture around stipendatleter college in 1980.
the film opens with baseball team spirant Jake, who moves into the house he will share with his teammates during their schooling. During the last weekend before school starts, associate Jake and teammates close ties over their skills, aspirations and common interest for drunkenness and witchcraft.
Off synopsis could “Everybody Wants Some !! “fine gone like a one-way ticket straight into his underpants. God forbid. Linklater removes all traces of stuff before you can say “American Pie.” Yes, the movie is tjåka full of partying, checking and metaphorical penis surveying guys sometimes, but it is not close to being what the film is about. Linklater goes behind sportsidiotien and portraying a collective with eplekjekkaser, which under the ostentatious surface share the same hopes and dreams – and fear of failure. The common consolation find lies in the moment: comradeship, freedom and skjørtejagingen they fully concentrate on – one moment at a time.
The film’s backbone is of course the chlamydia vulnerable comrade collective, which is largely played by debutants or inexperienced actors. The lack of well-known veterans is surprisingly refreshing. Not only does the fresh faces it easier to relate to the characters – because none of the actors have baggage from previous roles, but every one of the film’s key roles is a discovery, pure and simple.
In particular, Glen Powell which gestalts a role best described as a hobby philosophising mouth diarrhea, and lead actor Blake Jenner, a far more subdued type than its noisy blood brothers, impresses large. Fun is also seeing charm troll Wyatt Russell, apparently his father (Kurt) up to death that the film might foremost example of future passers-being.
“Everybody Wants Some !!” is a nearly perfect film on its own terms: Small, funny and charming in FORMEN- tremendous in thematic and emotional resonance.
All captured on film by Linklater, for the nth time in his career demonstrates his own ability to portray youth brutality and folly without mixing in own judgment. A fly on the wall, of the type you hope never flies out the window.
