Genre: Feature Film-Comedy Rating: R Release Date: 6-FEB-2007 Media Type: DVD Amazon.com: You remember high school? Really remember? If you think you do, watch this film: it'll all really come racing back. After changing the world with the generation-defining Slacker, director Richard Linklater turned his free-range vérité sensibility on the 1970s. As before, his all-seeing camera meanders across a landscape studded with goofy pop culture references and poignant glimpses of human nature. Only this time around, he's spreading a thick layer of nostalgia over the lens (and across the soundtrack). It's as if Fast Times at Ridgemont High was directed by Jean-Luc Godard. The story deals with a group of friends on the last day of high school, 1976. Good-natured football star Randall "Pink" Floyd navigates effortlessly between the warring worlds of jocks, stoners, wannabes, and rockers with girlfriend and new-freshman buddy in tow. Surprisingly, it's not a coming-of-age movie, but a film that dares ask the eternal, overwhelming, adolescent question, "What happens next?" It's a little too honest to be a light comedy (representative quote: "If I ever say these were the best years of my life, remind me to kill myself."). But it's also way too much fun (remember souped-up Corvettes and bicentennial madness?) to be just another existential-essay-on-celluloid. --Grant Balfour Average Rating:
 Rating:  - "....Sweet Emotion...."Buy it. If you are considering this movie, have specifically come searching for this movie on here just do it. I had the regular version, had actually completely forgotten about this movie and then for some reason decided to watch it one day and fell in love all over again. Went online to get more information and found this. I had it sent to me in Japan and it was the best 50$ I have spent in a while (postage etc). The movie and extras more than lived up to expectations. The second disc ...

Instead it's a parade of stereotypes, over used prop-gags, and a hodge-podge of someone else's confused idea of what might have been happening, some place. To someone. Rating: - A Modern Classic that captures an era as perfectly as looking through an old photo album.Richard Linklater's first picture, SLACKER, made on a shoestring, earned him a lot of attention, and he somehow managed to persuade Universal Pictures to spend $6 million on his sophomore effort, DAZED & CONFUSED, which follows a group of two dozen suburban Texas kids on the last day of high school in 1976. The studio that financed AMERICAN GRAFFITI several years before may have been hoping that lightning would strike again, and indeed there are intriguing similarities between the two movies. Both of ... Read More Rating:  - anyone from 18-35Most people under 40 should enjoy this movie. Sensationalized end of summer film that takes place in 70's Texas.
