It's since been turned into a stage musical but here is the film that it started life as.It's a decent Adam Sandler film, one of his best some would say. But I can't say it did a lot for me. Yes, there are some minor chuckles in there, and yes, Sandler has good chemistry with Drew Barrymore - but I certainly wouldn't rank this as being one of my favourite comedies of all time like lots of people do.It's got a good 80's soundtrack, I'll say that for it, and it has it's moments,but apart from that this is not a film i'd recommend or rush to see again.

One of my all time favourite Adam Sandler movies -truthfully I don't watch anything he puts out anymore but this is a classic.I'm not sure how many times I've seen it over the years but whenever I catch it on TV it still always makes me laugh as I sing along. This movie is of course especially great if you grew up in the 80's and remember all the "awesome" music and hair. The music is a huge part of this movie but all the 80's references are fun and then there's Billy freaking Idol on the plane. Excellent secondary characters here too.The story is a little hokey following Robbie, a singer (now reduced to working weddings) and Julia a waitress, two very sweet people who are engaged to the wrong partners. They meet while working a bar mitzvah (I think) and become friends.Drew Barrymore is Julia the love interest, helping Robbie through a bad breakup and then getting him to help plan her wedding. These two have definite chemistry together and you really hope they'll get together. All it takes is Billy Idol. A guilty pleasure favourite movie for sure.

The Wedding Singer is a good movie with a good storyline and a great comedic cast.It certainly isn't Adam Sandlers finest movie,but it's not his worst either,there are several funny scenes throughout but there are also a lot of misses.This is the first movie to star Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore,and from the very first scene you can see and almost feel the amazing chemistry between them and it is certainly the movies highlight.The thing that bothered me the most about this movie is that it is set in the eighties but rarely makes reference to it (other than the music),it makes a small reference every now and again,like a mention of Dallas,to remind us it's set in the eighties,but I think it should have made constant references instead of just a few at times to remind the audience.There are some great cameos and they are certainly some of the funniest parts,particularity Steve Buscemi and Jon Lovitz's scenes.The Wedding Singer is nothing outstanding but it is very enjoyable and I would recommend it as a short and sweet comedy to watch if you ever see it on television and have some time to kill. A waitress catches the eye of a wedding circuit singer who is distraught after being dumped at the alter of his own wedding.Best Performance: Adam Sandler Worst Performance: Matthew Glave

People write off this movie because it stars Adam Sandler. Well, I think they are making a big mistake. I think the cast in this movie really worked well together. Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore are magical. They have great on-screen chemistry. I have seen many of these people in other movies and television shows, so I really liked seeing Christina Pickles, Christine Taylor, Alexis Arquette, Kevin Nealon, Billy Idol, Steve Buscemi and Jon Lovitz all in one movie.Follow your dreams and be who you are is the lesson I took away from this movie. It is a light and uplifting movie which makes you smile. Be who you are even if you are the Wedding Singer. There is nothing wrong with being a Wedding Singer!
