Dazed and Confused (1993,  R)
Dazed and Confused 5.0 Stars
mathew mcConaughey, ben afleck, adam goldberg, parker posey, milla jovovich, are seen in very early roles here, showcasing there talent at a younger age, in richard linkleters love letter to 1970s austin texas, and a look at the last day of high chool, and eventual night full of partying that will go on, we follow the young freshmans atempts to stop from getting hit with a bat, by the older students, a tradion that goes on, there various atempts at escape and eventual capture is boh funny and cruel to watch, and the older guys and girls as they parade around the town just chilling and hanging out, looking for the next party or musing over there future, all charactors weave in and out of each others lives during the night, and is fun keeping up with storys, the time period looks great, and soundtrack is superb, of all the up and comers in film, rory cochrane was great as his stoner charactor, high all the time, and saying some mad things, and very iconic in his long hair and hat, afleck as bully looking for kidsto hit is also superb, playing a arsevhole wery well, and mcconaughey playing a much older wannabe high school drop out football player reliving his youth shows he can pull something off when hes not doing the stuff hes now doing, you could argue this is similer to george lucas,s american graffity, but manages to be quite diferent, with before sunrise this is linkleters best film, and a film perhaps because of setting asent aged since its 1993, release

dont miss the first 5 minutes of this, fake trailors doing the business, then with a slow start, things dont look good, downey juniors, and blacks charactors dont seem to work, at first, but then it all fits into place, stiller does his still stiler thing, which i love, a great coogan early role, and tom cruise doing a exellent supporting part, think of his turn in magnolia crossed with, his lions for lambs charactor, as i said, junior bounces back, hes so great, and the group are great together, but for me it is stillers show, from his simple jack, to his observations, some say it went stae years ago,,i dont, some exellent set pieces, and a film taking the piss out of holywood and a list stars, as a bunch of pre madonnas, the plot agroup of actors thinking there not in danger, works , but knows when to drop it, a great big action comedy, full of fun
