Hilarious movie with lots of cameos from famous actors
Added 9/2/2009
Bought this movie for my boyfriend because its his favorite. The old VHS finally died, so finding the DVD was difficult, but way worth it. There are tons of appearances from now famous stars.

"Glory Daze" is truly funny. Ben Affleck as a punk rocker, Sam Rockwell as the whipped boyfriend, a cameo from Matthew McConaughey as a drunk car salesman (of sorts), and French Stewart as a perpetual student, it's just classic. It's not the greatest movie ever, but it's worth owning. I saw it in 2000 and tried to find a copy of it for years before I finally got one through Amazon. Get ahold of the soundtrack if you like punk music. It's great!

A witty film for young adults in the real world
Added 7/16/2006
This film is good for a giggle. Not a classic, but something to pull down off the shelf when you're after a laugh. Quite abstract and off beat with some of it's jokes it makes for an intelligent comedy (rare for the college comedy genre films such as 'American Pie').
Young adults facing the question of "What comes next in life" should relate quite well to the films main character played nicely by the talented actor Ben Affleck before he made it big.
If you're after a witty (sometimes bitter) comedy this is for you.
Fans of punk rock will love the soundtrack, especially the Vandals song "It's A Fact".
If any of the above sounds interesting to you, do yourself a favour and check out this film.

MTV Shallow
Added 4/25/2005
Slick like a MTV video, rap pulsating in the background, punky
post-grunge set and clothing, Glory Daze amuses, but it's shallow,clichéd amusement. The senior year at college winds down and all the stereo-types jam a run down student's house. The beer flows, the girls hang around for what reason I don't know (duh), and the furniture is smashed. Cool huh? OK, my senior year wasn't much different back in 69, just more drugs, but what did we learn? For most kids, we didn't learn a
whole lot. That's why it's tough to make immature personalities come alive in film. It takes a real artist, but what the hell, last chance to make a fool of yourself without consequence, usually.

This movie is terrible. The script is bad, and the acting is even worse. There are virtually no laughs the entire movie, the characters are boring and uninteresting.
