The experience of watching this film is one of reflective exuberance.

There are certainly a lot of people in Everybody Wants Some!!, and Linklater does a fine job of keeping them all in play. The nominal protagonist is Jake Bradford (Blake Jenner), a freshman pitcher who has just arrived at Southeast Texas University in September 1980 to live in a run-down house with his teammates. His newfound crew of bros ranges from drawling innocent Billy Autrey (Will Brittain) to mustachioed weirdo Jay Niles (Juston Street) to friendly stoner Willoughby (Wyatt Russell) to sneering senior Glenn (Tyler Hoechlin). Chief among them is the philosopher-hedonist Finnegan (Glen Powell, fantastic), who chatters on endlessly — the latest addition to Linklater’s roster of lovable blowhards.
