Rijndri Load of rubbish!!

GarnettTeenage The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

merelyaninnuendo The Waterboy1 And A Half Out Of 5The Waterboy is a plot driven sketchy feature that depicts a journey of a self-undermining boy to his destiny. There are few tricks and treats involved in the last act to hold the audience despite of being predictable as it was all established in its previous acts for it took all of its time to set the plot and characters with their specific characteristics that easily bored the viewers. It is short on technical aspects like background score, costume design, cinematography, editing, sound department and surprisingly humor too. The humor in here is cheap and ludicrous as the fatal attempts to draw a chuckle from the audience grows as it ages on screen and it ache to watch the writers sweat behind the camera in order to do so. The screenplay by Tim Herlihy and Adam Sandler is actually cheap shot even for a commercial cinema for if it attracts viewers that it always raises the question of its existence. Frank Coraci; the director needs a lot of work to do on his execution skills for he barely is able to pull off a sketchy comic sequence. The performance is mediocrely delivered by Adam Sandler and addition to that isn't supported to the essential extent by its supporting cast like Kathy Bates and Henry Winkler. The Waterboy is a vacuous match of no thrill or joy for it is based on a wafer thin concept which clearly isn't enough to feed the audience.

mccartyandrew The Waterboy is a comedic movie starring Adam Sandler as a Louisianan homeschooled man who goes to college to play football. This legend is known as Bobby Boucher. This masterpiece was directed by Frank Coraci who absolutely nailed the essence of the underdog story. Adam Sandler has completely mastered the over the top goofball role in this movie and others such as Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore. The plot of the story was excellent especially the part where he tried to hide the fact that he played "Foosball" from his overprotective mother played by Kathy Bates Bobby started off working as a waterboy for the South-Central Louisiana State University Mud Dogs when one of the players made him mad. He proceeded to make an absolutely brilliant tackle on the quarterback who enraged him proving that he was an excellent pass rusher when he had the right motivation. He then enrolled in school to make him eligible for the football team. He drove his tractor to the school every day to go to attend classes and to practice. Each day his mom thought that he was just going to be the team's waterboy, little did she know he was becoming a sensation in the college football community. Bobby used inspiration from everyone who every wronged him to fuel him. Later in the film, his mother finds out about his football career and shuts it down immediately. Bobby and his coach, Coach Klein, spend a night trying to convince her to let him play for the Mud Dogs in the final game of the season against their rival. The two-story plot in the movie is excellent. The way he tries to hide football from his mother while balancing school and the fame he gets from his exceptional football play.

Dom Nickson I give credit for Adam Sandler for being in this film. I also give Rob Schneider credit but this movie is just so unfunny it just disappoints me when I see the box on my shelf and realize I'm not getting my money back. This movie is very poorly written with having the lead girl act trampy. I mean she awkwardly reminds me of my cousin and it just isn't a good thing. I don't really root for her to get the main guy because hey she just isn't all that attractive when she tries acting like it. I'm also turned off by this movie when the only thing I think would of been funnier and more realistic is having Adam Sandler's mother/ Kathy Bates murder everybody on the other team. The ending really is a disappointing climax and it just really is poorly done. You don't get satisfied in the end. It's a 3 out of 10 for Big Show's cameo, Kathy Bates' 2nd psycho performance, and having Rob Schneider play the character that Adam Sandler seemed to play in The Animal.

WakenPayne My brother is not a fan of Adam Sandler but he is a fan of Fairuza Balk (I guess me showing him Return To Oz may have influenced him) and one night decided to watch this. He walked out of it with an 8/10 rating. Knowing full well what to expect (and what to expect is an Adam Sandler movie - which means at best very stupid yet fun) I decided to give this a go.The plot (not that it matters) is that a 31 year old water-boy, Bobby gets fired from a multiple winning football team. He decides to get another job, which is exactly the same but this football team hasn't won a game since 1994. He then finds an amazing ability to tackle just about any player on the field. When the coach wants him to play his mother (who basically dominates his life) refuses. He tells Bobby to do it behind his mother's back. Soon after he finds a girl from his past that likes him but his mother doesn't. He then faces a few complications in order to get them to win.Now I'm pretty sure you know what to expect. If you are walking into this expecting something intellectual and thought-provoking then you'll be better off skipping this movie. If however you want 80 minutes of dumb fun then this is definitely one for you.
