Synopsis: Jake (Jenner) arrives in the college house where the college baseball team is grouped. One the way he sees Beverly (Deutch) and is astonished from her. His mates are Plummer (Baker), the crazy Nesbit (Amelio), the clever Finnegan (Powell), the Black of the group Dale (Johnson), the Californian drug dealer Willoughby (Russell). They get prepared to the first day of college by partying all time and looking for challenges and girls. 
Review: The story is very plain. Even if many things look familiar from the college time. The movie feels to me like Sofia Coppola and her movies on the boring modern life of rich people. As if Linklater would like to focus on showing real life of middle class people, after the great Boyhood. It is strange to say but even by finding some kind of identification in the characters, I did not manage to like the story As in Boyhood the acting is authentic, but it not as demanding as the characters are neither really evolving nor having different feelings to show. Ok, the music is typical from the 80s. Such as many other movies. 
Rating: 3 /10
