     • The Water Boy is a good Adam Sandler movie for people who like his sports films like Happy Gilmore. Be warned however, that there is some mean-spirited humor and bullying from football teammates. However, it serves as a device to show how poorly Bobby Boucher (Sandler’s character) is treated.

   Nov 6, 1998 · The Waterboy. Comedy. 86 minutes ‧ PG-13 ‧ 1998. Roger Ebert. November 6, 1998. 3 min read. I believe in giving every movie the benefit of the doubt. I walked into “The Waterboy,” sat down, took a sip of my delicious medium roast coffee and felt at peace with the world.

   Is Waterboy a good movie?

   • Waterboy isn’t perfect, but it’s a good coming-of-age story with Adam Sandler’s typical funny antics. The southern accents are well-done, and most of the humor IS funny for the most part, despite Sandler’s character being so naive to sexuality. Specifically the “have you ever been with two people at the same time” joke.

   Is The Waterboy (1998) a funny movie?

   • Some viewers found The Waterboy (1998) not funny. The plot of The Waterboy shares similarities with Stephen King's Carrie. Bobby Boucher's mother in The Waterboy bears resemblance to Carrie's mother in many ways. Instead of telekinesis, Bobby's unique ability is his talent for tackling. Consider this perspective. 8 out of 14 found this review helpful. Was this review helpful? Sign in to vote.

   Who plays Bobby Boucher in 'The Waterboy'?

   • Working a lisping Southern accent that sounds like Truman Capote on Seconal, Sandler plays Bobby Boucher, a swamp-dwelling Cajun. [6 November 1998, p. 56] Becomes yet another lame sports farce. One of the best sports-comedies around and one of Sandler's best movies. The Waterboy is so hilarious and entertaining.

   • Soon, Klein's players are championship contenders. Watch The Waterboy with a subscription on Hulu, rent on Fandango at Home, Prime Video, Apple TV, or buy on Fandango at Home, Prime Video, Apple TV. This is an insult to its genre with low humor and cheap gags. A witless and utterly predictable comic fantasy about a misfit turned hero.

   I really liked the Waterboy. It was crude, raw, and utterly funny. Adam Sandler gives his funniest yet since his 1995 cult hit Billy Madison. In this feel good movie, Sandler plays a dumb waterboy who gets on a football team and becomes a damn good tackler.
