HilariousThis 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. May 4, 2008

You will laugh until you cry

Tackling Fuel
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. October 7, 2007
Funny Funny Funny
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. July 29, 2007
