I started to watch this movie with an open-minded outlook since I love movies that take place in the 70's (even though I was born in the early 80's). The only thing this movie does well is capture the atmosphere of... Full review

It definitely is. No real plot just about 14 hours of the last day of school. Only left me confused about where it was trying to take the characters but there is no story as mentioned before. This could've almost been... Full review

A definant notable film with people telling you have you ever heard the quote "Whip that face of your head, bitch". It is also a film that touches reality, with high school entrances with mean, sleezy, and terrifying seniors.... Full review

This movie is an all time favorite for the simple fact this is how it was back then. They could not have portrayed it any better. Too bad we can not go back to those days when everything was less stress... Full review

Keep the screen black (no visuals, please) and just listen to the seventies soundtrack. The plot of this revered (don't see why) film is non-existent unless you like white boys acting stupid movies ie : Jackass and the like. This gave... Full review

That´s no great mystery. Dazed And Confused [Criterion Voyager,Special Edition] Dazed and Confused" has many strong points, starting with its motley cast of characters. Yet the movie does resonate on a deeply personal level for many people. ... Full Review

PopMatters
Universal Studios packaged the first Dazed and Confused DVD with its other righteously awesome classic high school flick, Fast Times at Ridgemont High .....The deleted scenes show how Linklater pared away the script's darker elements, especially one disturbing scene where Benny goes on a racist tirade.....The DVD appreciates the film itself, without trying too hard to analyze or understand it, thank god.....This is a pretty sunny film, all told, and doesn't need such shadows.....Like the similarly serious c ...

Dazed and Confused is a perfect movie.....Without a doubt, Dazed and Confused is a great film.....All throughout this masterful film, Linklater lets his actors shade....it's the little things, the fashions and the philosophies that make this movie so incredibly insightful.....As remarkable as it is to look at, Dazed and Confused is even more amazing in its decibel dimensions..... ...

Dazed and Confused" is rated R for considerable language and pot-smoking, along with some violence. Linklater doesn't have a serious dramatic point to all of this; he seems more interested in carving out a slice of minor history that he knows well. ... Full Review

Rolling Stone
Linklater, 31, is a sly and formidable talent, bringing an anthropologist's eye to this spectacularly funny celebration of the rites of stupidity. And eighth-grader Mitch (Wiley Wiggins is a star in the making) gets radically hazed. ... Full Review
