Wedding Singer

Pros: Soon to be in my Top 10 Romantic_Comedies, if ever I make such a list.
Cons: Extremely predictable. Plus if you don't like the 80's...

There's no better way to kick off a romantic comedy than to start with a wedding reception. I can still see it in my head now. People are dancing everywhere, partygoers of all ages are drinking, Gramma's over there copping a feel, and some kid has ...

Pros: Chemistry of Barrymore and Sandler, great story, superb musical selections
Cons: absolutely none

Everyone has some of those movies that you can watch over and over again, and even though you may know what is coming next, it doesn't ruin the movie for you. In fact, it actually creates an extra level of enjoyment for you, because you know when the ...

Pros: The adorable Drew Barrymore, Great Music, Kleenex required for the ending.
Cons: Totally predictable ending, but it's fun to see how they arrive there.

When I see the name Drew Barrymore listed in the credits of a film, I am immediately compelled to watch said film. She stole my heart as Gertie, the little girl in E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial back in 1982. She then played 2 other...

Pros: Romantic, funney, Reminds me of my youth
Cons: Some Sandler may miss a more goofey Sandler. Don't worry it's still funny.

Not Your Typical Sandler We all know Adam Sandler as the ex Saturday Night Live actor who has made it big in the movie business by portraying some odd and obnoxious characters. However if you are looking for an odd and obnoxious Sandler in this movie ...

Pros: Barrymore and Sandler are adorable
Cons: if you hate the eighties you could be annoyed

Generally speaking, I’m not a big fan of Adam Sandler movies. They tend to be low-brow affair filled with crude humor and possessing little redeeming value. But The Wedding Singer is atypical of his films, a tender romantic comedy devoid of most ...

Pros: Amusing, feelgood,Billy Idol, good cast
Cons: A bit predictable and sugary sweet

To be honest, I’m not all that big an Adam Sandler fan. I don’t dislike him or his movies, I just don’t seem to have seen very many. So I went into The Wedding Singer not knowing what to expect, I came out fairly satisfied. The ...

Pros: Fun 80's soundtrack, random Sandlerisms, a sweet Drew B., and a wacky supporting cast.
Cons: Watered-Down Sandler, made more PC for the Chick Flick-lovers!

Adam Sandler is like beer. In his best comic roles, he's as strong as a good lager or ale...or something. (I'm not a beer critic, people!) While The Wedding Singer is easily entertaining enough to recommend, what we're offered here is Sandler...

Pros: The chemistry between Sandler and Barrymore
Cons: Surprisingly... it forgets to be funny.

There's a school of thought [1] that says every filmmaker, for better or for worse, has their own "Citizen Kane". It's that one film that defines them, that gives them credibility, no matter what ...

Pros: Sandler lays off the juvenile humor for once.
Cons: He can't play a romantic lead.

Adam Sandler is one actor that I've never been able to get used to. He can be funny at times. But (with few exceptions) has rarely been able to carry a whole movie. The Waterboy, Happy Gilmore and Billy Madison had a few humorous moments (especially the...

Pros: romantic, funny, good music
Cons: none for me, might be bad for those who didn't enjoy the '80s

Yes, I am afraid to admit it. The ending of this romantic comedy made me cry. But, then again I am a sap who always loves romantic movies and that is why I convinced my friend to rent this one. And, yes this movie isn't just romantic , it is also a...

Pros: some original laughs, Sandler's songs
Cons: annoyingly stereotypical characters, run-of-the-mill plot

Though I’m in a long-term relationship, I stay away from watching romantic comedies. Far away. They tend to be inanely formulaic. You can guess everything that happens well before it does and the characters are always extremely perfect or complete...

Pros: music! the old lady singing
Cons: storyline

The Wedding Singer
Starring:
Adam Sandler
Drew Barrymore
Christine Taylor
Guest Appearance: Billy Idol


A reminder of when mini skirts were popular, hair was still big and wearing a white glove was still...

Pros: Happy ending
Cons: Corny

Predictable, corny and a chick movie, but I love it. As soon as Robbie (Adam Sandler) and Julia (Drew Barrymore) meet you know that they are meant for each other.

The year is 1985 Van Halen is flying high and Pacers and Gremlin automobiles...

Pros: Good plot, Good acting, excellent take on Eighties pop-culture.
Cons: Little laugh-out-loud humor, very different from other Sandler films.

Adam Sandler could almost be considered Jim Carey's younger brother. Both have been known for the same brand of off-the-wall humor and ridiculousness ever since they first set foot on the silver screen. So when Adam Sandler decides to play a decidedly mor ...

Pros: realistic 80's look, cute
Cons: predictable

I am a BIG Adam Sandler fan....I like his style. And I always love his movies.....except this time. Now, this wasn't a bad movie, it has its charm, but it didn't make me laugh all the time.
I am an 80's teen and my husband and I watched this...
