That was an excellent one.

Sorry, this movie sucks

Blistering performances.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Hey guys, I'm new to this site and this is my first review. I wanted to write a brief review of Screwballs made in 1983. This is the first time I saw this movie and I must say I really enjoyed it. If you start watching this movie with the mindset that you are going to be blown away by today's standards and humor, you will be disappointed. Keep in mind this was made in the early 80's when movie rentals were starting to first take off and the humor is totally different than the norm today. I thought the jokes and humor in this movie was very funny for the type of comedy it was. If you like the raunchy type late 70's and 80's movies you will love this one. I thought the many different comedy parts throughout the movie were all unique in their own way and the humor was quite funny. I grew up during this time and I guess that's why I like it so much because I can relate to the time. I give it an 8 out of 10. I think it is by far an above average comedy but still lacks the total greatness a 9 or 10 comedy possesses. I will definitely add it to my comedy collection.

This film will definitely cause you to rewind a few times, and fast-forward a lot more, because huge sections of it are predictable and flat to the point of humorless. The four main male characters... I hated them, but they seem to be somewhat accurate. Rafal Zielinski is a competent director, and the editor has rendered some rather effective "speed up" gags. Here and there, a good line is said, or a good piece of physical comedy is shown, but it's usually the script, not the way it's delivered, that's funny. And most of the nudity... To be frank, you get sick of it by sheer repetition (Wow, EVERY character is sort a deviant... boring) and want to see a character you can actually like. Now, on to Linda Shayne,She's hardly a prolific director these days, and some of her material is borderline vomitably kid-oriented(Flying Ryan, Purple People Eater), but she is still skilled at suiting the needs of the right target audience. Plus, she is more attractive than the rest of the female cast combined. It's a shame that she couldn't have gotten herself the female lead as Purity: her acting skills and physique are much better. Much more likely to draw a guy like me over to the cause of feminism than Ann Coulter or Oprah WinfreyIn short, she's the reason I am really mad that the local movie rental has lost its copy of this tape.

You don't go into this one expecting Shakespeare, folks. You expect first off, a little skin, and if you are lucky, a lot of skin. You expect broad locker-room type sex jokes. You expect that someone will be sexually humiliated at some point ( a must in the genre ). You expect all the cliques at your high school to be wildly parodied. You expect teachers to be portrayed as Nazis. You go in expecting all this and this film delivers. This movie was made just before video broke big time. Thsi was one of the early hits and many video hounds from way back can fondly look back as this being a rental they enjoyed. Check brain at the door and enjoy. It's all done in s spirit of goofy sexy fun and that is the spirit it needs to be seen in. Would make a great double feature with "Porky's".

This movie has some funny moments and some cool characters. but this movie is to much like Porky's and is not on the ball that much. This is just capitalizing on the teen sex craze of the 80's and watching it in the 90's is a little hard to stomach!
