"Instant Hero. Just add water."

Summary
31-year-old waterboy, Bobby Boucher is constantly tormented by the team he works for until he is fired by the coach. He then finds a new coach to work for. Here he finds a new talent, tackling people by pretending they're making fun of them. Soon, he becomes the best linebacker in college football, but he must keep it secret from his overprotective mother.

Actors/Actresses That Deserve Mentioning
*Adam Sandler
*Kathy Bates
*Rob Schneider

Trivia Facts
*The South Central Muddogs' stadium is the DeLand High School football field in DeLand Florida, the school agreed to let the director use the field if he paid for the stadium to be refurbished after filming.
*When the film was released in November of 1998 it was preceded by the trailer for Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999). Many Star Wars fans who weren't fans of Adam Sandler paid the full admission price and sat through the trailer then left the theater.
Memorable Boy Boucher Moments
*My Mama says that alligators are ornery because they got all them teeth and no toothbrush.
*Captain Insano shows no mercy.
*I like Vicki, and she like me back! And she showed me her boobies and I like them too!

Review
Adam Sandler's brand of humor may not be award winning,but it doesn't have to be.He creates another memorable character here,and surrounds himself with a good cast,including Henry Winkler,and Oscar winner Kathy Bates.You would be hard pressed to find a film about the sport of football that could be considered a great one,but the majority that I have seen are entertaining enough,and this one is no exception to that. If you are smart,you won't view this movie with an expectation of greatness,but if you want genuinely funny silliness,this is a film for you.

This is one of my favorite Adam Sandler movies :). Definitely worth a watch for those who haven't seen it.

:o OMG! This movie is down right hilarious! You've got to atleast take a look at the 'Theatrical Trailer' and see if you might have an interest in it! :o

I would of loved this when I was younger, but I'm horrible picky with comedy films now :(


The funniest part for me was when the coach told him to attack another team-mate, meaning tackle him, but instead, Bobby pokes him in both eyes...Complements of Captain Insaino...
