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.

After rewatching this 80's classic sex comedy it still holds up. The 80's will forever be the best decade for movie's. Tim Treakle

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.

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.

A great T&A movie. I wish my high school would have been T&A High.
