Another of those gems by Linklater. Movie has a very good feel about it and if you along with it and feel the old vibes,you will love it.

OK my title is a tad bit harsh but it is basically how I feel about this after watching it, it was certainly not all boring and I think as a whole is more watchable than some other movies but for a 'comedy' was not what was expected, there was not even a moment of laughter during the whole movie let alone a small chuckle, I feel this could just as easily be call a drama instead of comedy and it could have easily ended after twenty minutes or gone on another 2 hours and either way I feel the audience would end up knowing the characters just as well and had just as good a story told. The acting was great and I found the individual characters likable (the tiny amount that I knew them) but I found the story to be very thin without any substance and character development to be non existent culminating by going nowhere and simply ending on a flat note.

I'm the perfect recipient for this film. I "should" be giving it a "10". I went to college in 1979. I love the soundtrack. I got laid my first weekend at college. I joined a frat & lived with 45 guys. True, the 45 guys were a heckuva lot smarter & somewhat less athletic than these guys. I was never a pothead, but I sat through pothead-philosophy sessions. I had friends who sat there & did things like the knuckle-banging contest. I went through the whole team-bonding thing of a sports team. All of it. The problem is ... there is nothing here. There has to be something more than just nostalgia.Maybe the problem is that I didn't go to college in TX, at a state U. I don't know. I do know that I'd rate it lower than a "4", but to do that seems like dissing myself.ps: I love how IMDb thinks the right way to spell "heckuva" is "helluva". lmao @ the people who program these sites

Whilst watching the film, it seemed to have promise. Most of the actors did a good job; there were some well written parts and some parts that were pretty funny and entertaining. Before watching the film I read a review on here that described the film as it 'bounced around so much from topic to topic without actually getting into any of them'. I would say this is a very accurate description as I felt that nothing was really developed fully. Instead when the credits rolled I couldn't believe it was over already as nothing substantial had even happened. I felt like the beginning of the plot after we had met the characters and were waiting to see what would happen next, but that was really it, the film felt over before it even had begun!I'd have to say that Zoey Deutch did a great job despite the unfortunate and underwhelming plot.Overall, what's there of the film really isn't bad, it just feels incomplete to me with nothing really happening and no end goal or message being conveyed, which left me utterly underwhelmed.
