The Waterboy :: Education by Design Store

Editorial Review
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 Need i say more...

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!

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!

"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!!!

Hilarious

This is Adam Sandler at his best playing a goofy waterboy. Kathy Bates as his overbearing mother was hilarious, the scene with his bed sheet pegged out is just class, I have never laughed so much. This is an absolute must see for all Sandler fans.

Great Sandler film

Tackling Fuel

2007-10-07
I can see some of the reviews bash this movie. I really am not sure what the problem is. Naturally if Adam Sandler is in it odds are it's going to be very simple humor, but there is always a need for those types of movies. Sometime you just need to pop in a movie that will make you laugh without having to devote any thought to it. I love The Waterboy. I think Adam Sandler as a mentally imbalance football player who is obsessed with water quality is very funny. I like that everyone including kids can enjoy this movie.

I would definately recommend this one for very simple laughs and a fun viewing.

This is an oddball comedy that is very unique and funny. Kathy Bates is hilarious as his mother and it was good to see Henry Winkler doing a comedy again too. Overall a hilarious comedy, but I was a bit irritated that they gratuitously stuck an f-bomb in one scene. Im no prude, but it was out of place, didn't make the scene or movie any better and I believe was only done to make sure the movie got a more mature rating thereby causing more teens to want to see it when released in theatres. I see a lot of that movies though unfortunately. Without that one scene its actually not a bad movie to watch with your kids as long as they are teens or near teens.

ONE OF SANDLERS BEST EXCELLENT CAST

I saw this film in theaters and thought it was OK. After waching it on DVD a few times over the years it has really grown on me. Henry Winkler, Jimmy Reed and Kathy Bates are hystrical. A classic sports comedy that blows away his lame remake of the Longest Yard!

A great girft

I ordered 2 of the Waterboy DVDs...one for a gift and one to keep. As always, we love the movie!
