That was an excellent one.

A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

This movie is my youth which makes it close to my heart. Most people that watch it will think that it might be worthy of "B" movie status. I totally understand but as a young punk in the 90's this movie is amazing. It does a great job of capturing the angst of the "affluent white male" which as our good friend Luther let's us know in the film no one gives a damn about. When I want to smile and reminisce about the good old says I put this film on(until recently on VHS!) and it makes me remember great times at Florida State. If you grew up in the 90s then this film is for you, otherwise I would stay away as you would probably not understand.

I rented Glory Daze at a little film place in West Davis, CA. It spoke volumes to me because I was in a similar situation to that of Jack, the main character, the only difference being, my "ex-chick" was not seeing some other jackass. I left Davis, CA and started a new career, only to come back here for her...the wrong reason, but my life is better just the same. I'm lucky in a way, but it was inevitable, real, true, first love doesn't die EVER. I'm here, and I loved this movie, especially after I got to know Santa Cruz a little bit. I don't KNOW it, don't get me wrong, but it has a place in my heart, if only a little one. Alyssa Milano, is the princess of staying young, and gives this film an energy it may have sorely lacked without her. Ben is the perfect "angst". Patrick is the perfect "eccentric" Vinnie, the clever artist/social commentator. It's a very local NorCal flick mixed in with some good faces, I loved it, and it really does speak to the graduating, broken hearted NorCal crew. Just watch it and reflect, buy it, and reflect for a lifetime, but don't let it keep you from moving forward, and living it up in the here and now. Peace.

You could compare this movie to PCU or Animal House, but that really doesn't do any of those movies justice. PCU and Animal house are very slapstick and obvious, while Glory Daze is more lifelike. The combination of depression, sarcasm, and random Kevin Smith-esque references work well. The rag-tag group of misfits that live at Rancho are all very different characters, but somehow, you can relate to every one of them. 9/10

I saw this movie a few years ago. I loved it then. I remember watching it twice, back to back cause I liked it so much. Surprised me. It was a hidden gem for sure. Then today I woke up and remembered the movie. I couldn't remember the name. I just remembered French Stewart, Ben Affleck and Brendan Frasier were in it. I came to this site to find out what the name of the movie is and was appalled to find negative comments about "Glory Daze". Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but wow! Were those of you who didn't enjoy this movie actually watching it? This is one of my all time top ten for sure. Give it a chance. Take a look. If you enjoy good scripts and earnest acting, look no further. Cheers.
