  • Summary: On the last day of classes in the teenage wasteland of suburbia in 1999, a diverse group of students copes with its undetermined fate over a 24-hour period. Some are comfortably college bound, while others continue to romanticize their own nonsensical pipe dreams. All the while, they find safety in numbers as they enjoy their last night of adolescence.

    As high school zeitgeist stories go, Remember the Daze holds no great secrets or revelations, no iconic characters or “American Pie”-style set pieces, but it demonstrates considerable promise on the part of its director and her up-and-coming cast.

    A generally entertaining but half-baked variation on Richard Linklater’s high school period piece, “Dazed and Confused” (made in 1993, set in 1976), Remember the Daze (set in 1999) takes its cue from the earlier film in an excess of ways.
  3. The original title of Jess Manafort's directorial debut was "The Beautiful Ordinary," and she shouldn't have changed it. After all, her cast is beautiful and her movie is ordinary.

    We keep waiting for a story, or at least some comedy, but none ever materializes. The dialogue makes Algebra II seem fascinating by comparison.

    Not quite the next gen "Dazed and Confused" like they obviously set out to achieve but it's not an absolutely dreadful watch. Perfect movie to watch with a girlfriend because you only will end up watching half of it anyway. Collapse
