Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

jermaineemaillists This movie offered ceaseless moments of surprise. I'm sorry but the pretentious film nerd reviews are not to be heeded. I'm no film buff. I am a romantic academic whose who life career is wrapped up in understanding public appeal and popular culture. This film is "rough." True. Technically. But there is something more at work that is simply beautiful and sublime. The writing and directing is oddly authentic. Somehow and in someway, the director was able to pull more out of this cast than what is possible given the limited budget. I came to this movie with low expectations. And, perhaps, that is part of its charm for me: it defied and exceeded expectations.Some have suggested that this movie needs to be "remade." Ok. Cool. But that only testifies to what this film is: a severely underrated romantic comedy that clearly has powerful writers and director. When I watched this movie I felt like I was watching people of high talent, but low opportunity, being pushed to their limit. It felt like a last gasp...and last "let's give it our all" type attempt. Yes. I get it. The film as "ingredients" of a sex/rom com. But that is not what this film is about. It is neither and only about sex or romance. It is also about how important it is to seize the moment. And, "moments" is what I keep experiencing as I watched the film. Again, I had low expectations. However, this film continually anticipated my "plot hole" cynicism and then offered just a bit more. Go ahead. I dare you. Consider this you "typical" rom/sex com movie. You will be surprised. In my my background of expertise, I can tell you that anytime I am surprised it is only because someone has done something extraordinary. Ordinary, yes. But EXTRA ordinary. Big ups and congrats to the crew of this low budget film. The writing and directing was solid. Give it a sympathetic view and you'll realize how awesome it is, not only and simply how it could be.

drh4 Had to add a review after catching this on Netflix, being intrigued by the film, and reading the other two oddly harsh reviews.Screwed has its limitations: most notably, the low production values of an indie done on a tight budget, and a predictable and somewhat disappointing ending. And on netflix, all passages with music tracks have been entirely muted out--presumably due to copyright issues?--which makes for a jarring performance.But those flaws aside, it has an engaging cast, a great deal of wit, and an interesting premise. Well worth your time. The film industry would be much better off if more pictures like this saw the light of day.

Luxxi This movie could have been good. Not great but good enough so you feel you didn't waste time watching it. The plot is just silly enough to be good. People doing things do them so that they could be funny. Interactions could be funny. And some supporting characters are funny as they are. And while movie attempts to be different and not go for traditional happy ending it fails.But it isn't. Bad acting and bad editing ruin everything. while movie has that distinct low budget-y feel that really isn't that bad. And even so some things work, like Nuclear family and weird black guy.But overall it's wasted effort and you shouldn't waste your time with it.

Red Rahman Considering how this movie has yet to receive a review here, I thought I would take the effort to ward others away from this pathetic train wreck.Put bluntly, this is probably the worst excuse for a romantic comedy I have ever seen. The movie is supposed to be about a guy who watches a sex VHS in order to enhance his sexual prowess and win over the heart of his unsatisfied girlfriend. Along the way, he has sex with around half a dozen women before he falls in love with a normal girl in between. Conflicted by the end, the protagonist chooses the down-to-earth girl over his former insatiable girlfriend but not before the jealous ex tries to break their new union.Overused story notwithstanding, the movie failed to make me laugh at all. In fact, rather than smile, I was forced to grimace and many times during the "movie," I chose to minimize the video while keeping it running and do some writing to spare some of my wasted time. The worst part about the film, apart from the incompetent editing and transitions from take to take, was the content. For a movie about promiscuous sex, there is NO nudity at all. The only nudity in the film I saw was the bare buttocks of the lead actor (who probably felt very under-dressed for each "sex scene").In closing, if you don't want to waste a good 100 minutes of your time and money on a total nightmare of a "movie," then don't watch this BS. My rating : 3/10 (a generous rating for this garbage).
