What’s better? Water or
Gatorade? If you chose Gatorade, you just angered Bobby Boucher. In Adam
Sandler’s classic hit, The Waterboy, he plays a sweet momma’s boy who finally
grows up. After years of being a water boy and being fired from his job as the
aquatic engineer, Bobby goes searching for a new job. This search would land
him in the office of Coach Klein, the Head Football Coach of South Central
Louisiana State University (SCLSU). After becoming water boy at this new
school, Boucher discovers his God-given talent one day during practice. Soon
after being hit by a football, Boucher becomes enraged and tackles the starting
Quarterback. At this moment, the team realized they didn’t just have a water
boy, but a tackling machine. This machine would lead the Mud Dogs to a
fantastic season and a trip to the Bourbon Bowl. The Mud Dogs would win their
bowl game and life of Boucher begins. After winning the big game, Bobby Boucher
goes off to marry his girlfriend, Vicki. Even though momma’ said she the devil,
he loves her.
What I love about this movie is the innocent comedy of
Bobby Boucher. From his speech impediment to his rage, he is overall a
hilarious but admirable character. There are many scenes in the movie when
Boucher’s personality becomes humor. An example of this is the classroom scene
in the beginning of the movie. If you have seen the movie, you know it’s when
he has a disagreement with his teacher, “Colonel Sanders,” and tackles him. Bobby
Boucher is the sole reason I put this movie in my top five, his personality is
hilarious and makes the movie what it is.
After reading many reviews, people overall had the same
idea about the movie, that it was goofy and stupid, but hilarious. The one
review I chose to use was a review from rottentomatoes.com. The review said
overall, it was a bad movie, but I disagree. It scored the movie a 32%, and
says, “This is an insult to its genre with low humor and cheap gags.” However,
74% of viewers liked the movie. I am one of those viewers, I love this movie.
Not only does it include a great cast, but it also has hilarious jokes which
makes it one of the best Adam Sandler movies of all time.
Hello Bobby,
ReplyDeleteGreat choice in Movie, I haven’t seen Water Boy in forever. Adam Sandler is one of my favorite actors! He is hilarious. Every time I see this movie I think of the Gatorade h2o skit, where they go back and forth. I agree with Bobby Boucher I am for Gatorade. Then how Adam Sandler switches to the star of the show was priceless. He went from a simple water boy to a very talented linebacker. I also love how throughout the movie his mom said the girl he was in love with was the devil. Probably because she didn’t want to lose her son because of the bond they share. In the end they stay together so true love concurs all in the end, a typical happily ever after movie. Bobby, this was a great choice, I will definitely have to watch it again soon!
