"On the whole, this is a fascinating example of apparently fly-on-the-wall film-making, made all the more intriguing when you discover it was all planned like a military exercise."

"Criterion doesn't slack on the extras or the audiovisuals with their satisfying Blu-ray upgrade of Richard Linklater's shaggy-dog ode to one mixed-up generation."
