Dazed and Confused

Movie: Dazed and Confused (1993)
Watched: By myself right after Star Trek VI

Considering Richard Linklater now directs things like the Bad News Bears remake in addition to his indie efforts, and Dazed being his first studio film, I expected it to be more...I don't know...cogent?

It's aimless in a way that reminded me a lot of Slacker. On some level, I think it's cool that Linklater does stuff like that, but it's also hard for me to ever feel involved.
This movie felt exactly like being at a party full of high schoolers, which is impressive, but not particularly enjoyable.
