Everybody Wants Some!! / Reviews
Time Out
A hilarious, deeply relaxed comedy about male bonding, Richard Linklater’s baseball-minded latest ranks right up there with his masterpieces.

The characters often come across as immature dolts, but the film’s humane enough to recognise that’s all part of being 18.

If the lads were insufferable misogynistic pricks, Everybody Wants Some!! would make for horrible viewing. Thankfully they’re all intensely lovable.

It's as honest and clear-eyed about the past as its predecessor, another in a filmography of unpredictable gems.

A perfectly pitched blast of nostalgia, which will transport you to that time in life when the future stretched before you and anything seemed possible.
