Raunchy but funny and thoughtful early '80s college comedy.

Secondary characters try to pick up partners throughout the story. Montage of brief, simultaneous sexual encounters/sex acts in a college boarding house. (Mostly kissing and groping/fondling.) Topless female; naked male bottoms. Lots of kissing. Heavy, frequent sex talk and innuendo. Shirtless males, males in jock-straps. Man admires his own bottom in tight pants ("best cheese on campus"). Mud wrestling at a party.

Themes related to the value of both being yourself and finding the right team to be part of. But questionable behavior isn't punished, and even though rules are broken, there aren't any consequences.
Not a lot of obvious role model behavior, but characters do learn how to handle teasing and how to accept their own strengths and weaknesses. They also learn how to be on a team. Secondary characters are promiscuous and pursue many sexual partners.
Parents need to know that Everybody Wants Some!! is a comedy from Richard Linklater that can be seen as a successor to his cult classic Dazed and Confused. Language is extremely strong, running the gamut from "f--k" to "s--t" and many others. College-age characters drink beer (and sometimes harder alcohol) and often smoke pot (bongs, joints). Men try to pick up women and sometimes succeed, kissing and sleeping casually with many of them. A topless woman is shown, as are men's naked bottoms; there's also plenty of ogling, innuendo, groping, etc. Violence is limited but includes a brief bar brawl, pushing and shoving in a mosh pit at a punk show, a painful-looking "knuckles" game (with bleeding, swollen knuckles), and mud wrestling. Though it's full of mature content, it's also funny and irresistible, with some soulful passages and "be yourself"/"join a team" messages.
