The estimable New Jersey-based Troma Films, the same firm that brought you such imperishable classics as Toxic Avenger and Chopper Chicks in Zombietown, was responsible for the raunchy baseball farce ... read more read more...Squeeze Play. Rather than offer a litany of its highlights (such as they are), we feel that the tenor of the film is implicit in its bare-bones plotline. In the small town of Springborn (its principal industry is a mattress factory), the local all-male baseball team, The Beavers, celebrates each victory by bedding their wives, sweethearts and casual dates. Tired of this chauvinistic treatment, rebellious Samantha (Jenni Hetrick) organizes an all-girl team, the Beaverettes. She forces a battle of the sexes on the baseball diamond, pitting her buxom teammates against the dirty-playing Beavers. Rather enjoyable in its own sleazy way, Squeeze Play occasionally interrupts its R-rated sniggering to offer a parade of shameless product-placement plugs, and halfway through stops dead in its tracks for an interminable wet T-shirt contest. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

    It's really just another stupid comedy, but I found it enjoyable anyway, it's funny for the most part. The story is alright, even if it is silly. Overall, it's an okay movie, depending if you're in the mood for a stupid comedy or not.

    Okay, let me be blunt: about two thirds of this movie just flat out sucks, and many of the ideas in it are done to death. But the things that are funny are work like a charm. It's one of the very few 80s sex comedies that actually snuck a joke or two in that weren't about gay peo... read moreple to go alone with the pale, not very attractive TA. The feminism seems, looking at what Troma did after this, kind of like lip service, but it's still better than most competition.

    The plot is a bunch of softball players generally irritate their significant others, and they form a female softball team.

    And the music is great.

    A cheesy, low-budget, silly movie, with sex jokes, but I kinda liked it too, it's fun. Not a good movie, but fun to watch if you've got nothing better to do.

    The first ever Troma movie. This comedy helped Kaufman to make Troma what it is today. The famous baseball in the ass scene claimed fame for Kaufman & Herz and they went onto make the trashiest, grossiest horror out there today.
