Rating: Summary: Can't quit watching it. Review: It's great to see a movie that launches so many careers. I hope Linklater will get busy again. By the way Linklater's mom has a really great Bed & Breakfest in Texas. Wish I could remember the town - all I can remember is that they have some kind of annual chili cookoff there. Check it out if you get the chance.

Rating: Summary: A 1990's version of American Graffiti Review: Well, at least in my opinion. The plot is basically the same, end of the school year, kids driving all over town, trying to find something to do. My mother graduated high school in 1975, and I wonder when I'm watching this movie, "Was MY mom really that cool?" A good movie, not profound, but definitely entertaining.
Rating: Summary: Excellent movie Review: Dazed and Confused is one of few movies I can watch over and over again, without getting tired! I've watched it about 50-60 times, still I just want to rewind and see it again at once! The atmosphere in D&C is enormous! I wanna live in the seventies, in Texas......!Excellent movie....
Rating: Summary: High Praise To This Film Of Youth Review: This is a great representation of the often ignored drug culture in suburbia. This film is hilarious and probably contains something you have seen or experienced in High School. The characters are well represented by the stellar young cast. A great acquisition to fit along side American Pie, Porky's and Fast Times at Ridgemont High.
Rating: Summary: Why you need to see this film Review: Some people have said this film lacks a real plot, or meaning. These people have missed the point completely. Dazed and Confused is a great film, with some of the most memorable qoutes ever. For once, a film that doesn't make being a teenager some emotionally signifigant moment. Nobody finds direction and meaning, they just go and get drunk and stoned. The characters are excellent, and the dialogue classic. It takes you back to the 70's, with it's cars, music and clothes. Even if you weren't around then, this film still has the effect of putting you there. There is a point to the film, and the point is that being young is the most fun you'll ever have.
Rating: Summary: I get older, they stay the same age... Review: I am fed up with people saying that nothing happens in this film. To say this is to miss the point entirely. This is a film made in documentary style, a style which gives maximum credibility to the wide and varied selection of characters. We are seeing them in their natural environment, be it the pool hall, the beer bust, or indeed within the confines of the school walls. I defy anybody to watch this film and not be reminded along the way of one or two, if not several, of the people from their year-group in school. They are all there: the sporty ones, the ones who did drugs, the ones who were good at sport and did drugs, and of course the nerds. What I love is that none of these groups is portrayed by way of charicature; they all have complexities which are evident in every scene. The result of these complexities is that some of my favourite characters are the ones who might be considered minor. Melvin (the black guy) and Hirschfelder (Mitch's chubby friend) are two perfect examples. And there is of course Wooderson, the epitome of Texas cool! I disagree that nothing happens in this film; however, the fact that plot for once takes a back seat means that these wonderful characters are given the freedom they deserve to show their worth. Anyone who calls this film boring is boring themselves, and never enjoyed their teenage years!
Rating: Summary: Excellent comedy with lots of A-list actors Review: This movie is so great. It just totally reminded me of my aunt who was a senior and I was in 5th grade. I so much wanted to hang out with the older kids. That particular time was magic and the film totally gets that across. Parker Posey, Ben Affleck, Matthew McConaughey were just a few great actors who appeared in this and I bet had the time of their lives filming this. One question: Where is the beautiful and very talented Michelle Burke been? This movie is a litmus test for my friends, if they don't like it, they ain't my friends.
Rating: Summary: Fun Film that Hits the Spot Review: This is a great movie that really makes you wish you could go back to high school. The music is outstanding and I highly recommend buying the first soundtrack -- if not the second one, too. This film takes a pretty realistic look at life as a worthless teenager. Though some may slam it as a movie that doesn't have a point, I think there is a theme that can be summed up rather easily: although it's a lot of fun to be a careless teenager, people naturally want direction in their lives, even if that direction means going against what others might want for us (this is best demonstated in "Pink's" unwillingness to sign the football team's petition to not drink, do drugs, etc.). The movie's ending -- an open road from the perspective of the people sitting in the front seat of a car -- is a wonderful way to conclude the message of this film: the open road of life is right before us, and it is our jobs to make sure ours is a fullfilled journey.
