MovieFest Movie Marathon #3: 'Dazed And Confused!' Look At Them Mullets!

• MovieFest Movie Marathon #3 • Dazed And Confused • 8/10 •

'Dazed And Confused' is your typical coming of age high-school dramedy. Just like nowadays, only 42 years later, it follows a group of rowdy teenagers celebrating there last day of school.

The funny thing is, when you think about it, what's changed? 42 years down the line and the social groups in school/college are exactly the same. For example, you always have some big kid picking on a little kid, wether that be girl or boy. Though conflicts do arise, the film does not let such serious moments complicate the good time these youngens experience.

I loved that every time something bad happened -- Affleck and his bullies hazing freshman -- it was switched up so the bullies became the bullied, and that for me, kinda made it feel more like a light-hearted version of 'Stand By Me!'

The acting was fresh, soundtracks were amazing and the realism was there. Ben Affleck and Mathew McConaughey with them mullets, WOW 😂 that was my highlight!

Good film, and it's nice to be reminded, that on occasion, college can be fun!
