The Waterboy Reviews
A witless and utterly predictable comic fantasy about a misfit turned hero.

Really dumb, but many teens love it anyway.

The formulaic mix of mirth and mayhem is aimed way down the M온라인카지노추천 food chain...
Full Review | Jun 2, 2008
Perfectly watchable, undemanding fun, but you can't help thinking that a slightly darker tone would have gone a very long way.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 2, 2008
The direction is as blunt and vacant as the plotting, the jokes are obvious and the performances (with a couple of exceptions) charmless.

The film is amiably goofy.

As a satire on the only true religion of the American South -- football -- The Waterboy is delightful.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 12, 2002
We've got somewhat entertaining trash here.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 18, 2002
Sandler makes the laughs go down easy, even if The Waterboy isn't exactly quality H2O.

A mildly amusing bayou farce with plenty of 'foosball' action to liven the sometimes plodding proceedings.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jan 1, 2000
It's definitely for the fans!

A series of quickly repetitious sight gags!

This escapist comedy is so cheerfully outlandish that it's hard to resist, and so good-hearted that it's genuinely endearing.

As a whole, it's not so much stupid as it is boring.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jan 1, 2000
Long on crude, cheap humor and short on, well, anything else.

Dehydrated!
| Original Score: D- | Jan 1, 2000
A character whose manner and voice has the effect of fingernails on a blackboard!
| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 1, 2000
The peculiar comic energy of Sandler's idiot character gets lost because he's off screen for a good deal of the movie.

Formulaic!

You can lead Adam Sandler fans to "The Waterboy," but you can't make them think.
