After helming the seminal '90s coming-of-age movie "Dazed and Confused," filmmaker Richard Linklater returned to the genre with 2016's "Everybody Wants Some!!" This time, Linklater focused on college baseball players at Texas school in 1980 who arrive before classes for training camp. Freshman pitcher Jake Bradford (Blake Jenner) moves into the team's house off-campus where he is greeted by a whirlwind of drunken parties. Between the string of shindigs and baseball practice, Jake finds time to romance his classmate Beverly (Zoey Deutch) as he finds himself in the college scene.
There's a playfulness to "Everybody Wants Some!!," with Linklater evoking a debauched college environment through youthful eyes. Baseball is the thing that brings these seemingly disparate kids together, and it's clear that they still love playing it. And long before he became America's latest heartthrob, this stands as one of Glen Powell's best movies to date, with Powell playing the irascible upperclassman Finnegan. A feel-good movie about a bunch of college rascals, "Everybody Wants Some!!" brings some mischievous fun to college baseball.
