The Waterboy
An oddball mama’s boy from the back bayous of Louisiana, Bobby Boucher never wanted anything more than to quench the thirst of the athletes who treat him like dirt! But when the coach makes a call allowing him to finally stand up for himself, a torrent of unleashed, bottled-up frustration transforms him to the hardest hitter ever to roam the gridiron!

My thoughts
Adam Sandler can take all the issues that so many of us face in life, being picked on, being last picked, not having success and all the other shit, turn it into a movie and leave us wanting more.
The Waterboy is no exception. This is one of my favorite Adam Sandler movies of all time. I can come back to this movie every now and again and really enjoy it.
I rate the Waterboy 4/5
