| Criminally Underrated (by MellowStello) |
| This has to be one of the most underrated films on IMDB. A timeless, hilarious film.Compared to the modern PC drivel being released today, this film is phenomenal.In fact, I'd rather watch The Waterboy for the umpteenth time than ANY of the films released in the last 5-10 years... except maybe the John Wick series.I don't think Adam Sandler has made a more funny production to date. This film deserves more than a 6.1 star rating... at least worthy of 8 stars. |
| Hilarious (by michaelscheindlinger1) |
| I have seen this movie at least 50 times and I still laugh at it. It was made to make you laugh and in my opinion, it succeeded. Unless you are a pompous bore, you should watch it. |
| Captain Insano Shows No Mercy! (by inferno272) |
| how anyone could not like this movie is beyond me. Not only does it have a pretty darn good acting core with Fariuza Balk sp? Adam Sandler, Kathy Bates, and the great Henry Winkler, it also has a lovable story, and some insane football hits.a hilarious comedic action flick is what i would call it, just a different kind of action flick : anyway, i really don't have to say the story outline, as I'm sure 99% of the people reading this have already seen it, so all i am going to say is, that i think this is a great movie, i think everyone should see it, and i think you should see it <more> |
| Revenge Of The Cajun Nerd (by ccthemovieman-1) |
| I have to admit: this Adam Sandler no-brainer is hilarious, just had me laughing right from the start. I'd rank it in my top ten funny movies of my collection and it features one of my favorite characters in film: Bobby Boucher Jr., a heckuva lot nicer guy than Sandler's "Happy Gilmore." "Bobby" is about as innocent and a gentle-natured a guy as you'll find this side of Forrest Gump. You can't help but root for him, and that's the idea. What the film basically involves is another "Revenge Of The Nerds" theme except it's "nerd "- <more> |
| Check your brain, then get ready to laugh (by Steave) |
| A lot of people are shocked at how dumb, unbelievable, and campy this movie is. Obviously they've lived in a cave and never seen an Adam Sandler movie before.You don't watch Adam Sandler for a cerebral workout. You'll never see him starring opposite Anthony Hopkins or Merryl Streep. Okay, I realize his IS cast opposite Oscar-Winner Kathy Bates, but don't confuse me with details. This movie is just a bunch of jokes wrapped around a weak plot.Still, the jokes are really funny. I don't usually laugh out loud at the movies, but I guffawed at many parts of this movie. If <more> |
| Oh Come ON!! This was not meant to be high art..just great fun (by rdambroso) |
| All of the characters were well developed and entertaining. This movie never pretended to be anything more than it was..a fun, wacky comedy with a bizarre plot. Anyone who beats this up for being dumb should be taken out back and paddled. It is obvious THEY are too dumb to realize that this was DESIGNED to be dumb. Anyway..there are too many scenes that I STILL laugh at today, even though I have seen this 1/2 dozen times. So, if you are looking for the greatest film ever made on all levels..give this a pass..if you can relate to the humor, it's a wonderful hoot! I am not a die hard Adam <more> |
| The Waterboy is one of Adam Sandlers best comedy films. (by dobbin-4) |
| Now I am a huge fan of Adam Sandlers dumb-ass films but I think that is why people have let him a have a career so long. They just love his dumb-ass movies. The movie centres around the local water boy who when the coach of the football team notices he can tackle hard when mad he puts him as the new quarterback of tackeler guy sorry I am Australian. The movie is good on many pointers as it shows that Adam Sandler can play 2 different types of dumb guys, nice dumb and guys and mean dumb guys. If you have not already seen this you should take some time to seat down and enjoy the movie. Overall <more> |
| Sandler at his best (by Mantaforce) |
| This is Adam Sandler at his best. Films like 'Big Daddy', 'Billy Madison' and 'Happy Gilmore' are the films that help Adam Sandler fulfil the comedic status he enjoys today. This film may not be the Ocscar winning type, but comedies never really are. Sandler is brilliant as Bobby and is unrecognisable to his real self. If only he had kept these type of films up rather than featuring in films such as 'Mr Deeds' and 'Click' which in my personal opinion have dragged him down some what! he would be up there with the likes of Will Ferrel . The film in <more> |
| Slow plot, fun story (by selt86) |
| Although the plot of the movie is slow, Adam Sandler makes a great performance as a retarded "WaterBoy." Being around the age of 30, the Waterboy's official job is to hand out water to the players on some football team. You have to see this if you like comedies -- half of the fun of it is that it is so dumb. |
