Product Description
America's favorite wild and zany funnyman, Adam Sandler (50 FIRST DATES, MR. DEEDS, PUNCH-DRUNK LOVE), scores big laughs in a smash comedy hit where the laughs never run dry! Just an oddball mama's boy from the back bayous of Louisiana, Bobby Boucher (Sandler) never wanted anything more than to quench the thirst of the dehydrated athletes who treat him like dirt! But when Coach Klein (Henry Winkler -- HOLES, TV's HAPPY DAYS) makes the call that allows Bobby to finally stand up for himself, it unleashes a torrent of bottled-up frustration ... and exposes a talent for tackling that transforms him from a meek "water distribution engineer" into the hardest hitter ever to roam the gridiron! Also featuring award-winning Kathy Bates (ABOUT SCHMIDT, TITANIC, MISERY) and sexy Fairuza Balk (ALMOST FAMOUS, RETURN TO OZ) in a hilarious cast of stars -- here's your chance to join the millions everywhere who've proudly stood and cheered for The Waterboy! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Adam Sandler vaulted into the $20-million-salary stratosphere with this, his second $100-million hit in 1998--a movie that further shows just how deeply embedded he is in the Jerry Lewis tradition of idiot comedy. He plays Bobby Boucher, a backwoods Cajun and a mentally challenged individual with a fixation on water: specifically, on serving the coolest, most refreshing H2O available to the college football team he has served since he was an adolescent. But when he's fired from his position, he takes up a similar job with a lowlier college team coached by neurotic Henry Winkler. One day at practice, Bobby loses his temper and delivers a bone-shaking tackle to the starting quarterback; before he can say, "blackened crawdads," he's the star of the team and leading it to a bowl game. But it's all against the wishes of his overprotective mother (Kathy Bates), who wants to keep her Bobby to herself--and that includes keeping him away from the floozy girlfriend (Fairuza Balk) who's sweet on him. There are two kinds of people in this world: People who find Sandler funny and people who view him as a neon-lit symbol of the decline of popular taste. You know who you are and, based on that, you can decide whether this is a movie for you. --Marshall Fine

Adam Sandler Need i say more... September 5, 2008
The waterboy is a classic. Its smart, funny and sure to put a smile on your face. Selling company was great to work with. The waterboy shows what an average joe like myself or you can do if you put your mind and effort into something.
Watch it over and over again and each time laugh until your sides ache! July 23, 2008
This is my favorite of all of Sandler's movies. It is among one of the few movies that I cannot count how many times I've seen. I could never grow tired of watching this movie! If you like movies that are just plain FUNNY you'll love this movie. Kathy Bates did an excellent Mama. There are a few lines that will stick with you, and if you are like me years later will still laugh hard every time you hear them. "You can do it!" is my favorite. Sandler's character is simple, sweet, and lovable. Mama is more multi-dimensional than I expected her to be the first time I watched the movie. His girlfriend would seem like the worst match on Earth for him, but they make a great comedy compliment to each other well. The coach is another lovable character. You'll be rooting for the good guys and laughing like you haven't laughed in years (or since the last time you watched Waterboy).
Hilarious Adam Sandler movie! June 18, 2008
"Water's better than gatorade", "but mommy said..." are just a few of the waterboy's catch lines from the Waterboy. This is definately one of Sandler's best known movies. Here he stars as a waterboy who claims that water is always better than gatorade...only to be knocked out or teased by the football players. But when Bobby (Sandler) makes a great play in football, he becomes a "legend". This is a must for any Adam Sandler fan!!!
