      Audience Member In the wake of "Porky's," this little slice of of Canadian cheese was imported. However, comparing it to Porky's is unfair because, as incredible as it may sound, Screwballs does not aim for such heights. This is merely a stupid, goofy, corny, ridiculous, romp. Yet it REVELS in its stupidity, goofiness, corniness and ridiculousness without shame or apology. The result? It's fantastic! Warning: Do not use the left half of your brain during its runtime. That would ruin the fun. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review euler n Not an A movie, for sure. Almost no plot here, tiny budget, basically some teenagers trying to have fun in many situations. Well, it's watchable, but only for those seeking for silly 80s teen movies. Anyway, it remains interesting until the end. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member A great T&A movie. I wish my high school would have been T&A High. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Screwballs is a fun 80's teen sex comedy. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Very entertaining. These types of films at the time were good and original. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Classic 80's Crass Comedy..They Were Only Ever Made Like This At The Height Of It All. Completely Stuck In A Timewarp. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times It's another one of the teenage sex movies that are hot at the box office this summer. And it's not the worst of its genre. It's a good-hearted, fairly harmless little movie, but if it's about anything other than T & A, I missed it.
