Sandler's 'Waterboy' splashes onto video

"Bulworth," the dark horse in this year's Best Original Screenplay category, finally makes its way to video today. The movie is written and directed by its star Warren Beatty, someone who's been around the block more than once. Here, Beatty plays a disillusioned senator who throws caution to the wind and gets busy with Halle Berry. This is a prime opportunity to check out Warren G exploring his talents as a ghetto superstar.

What do all legendary sports teams have in common? Waterboys. Funnyman (debatable) Adam Sandler handles the all-important agua job in "The Waterboy." Then by a lucky twist of fate, Sandler is upgraded to star of the squad. It's the stuff that dreams are made of.

Sandler gets wet, then plays ball.
And finally, the most loaded film of the year hits your favorite rental counter today. Queen Latifah, Holly Hunter and Danny DeVito stop living in the world of the imaginary, stop talking to themselves and start "Living Out Loud." Passed off by some as original, this comedy misses the mark and fails to live up to its name.
