PodBill Just what I expected
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
saneful92 I became a big fan of fluffy romantic comedy movie because of Adam Sandler. Spending 90 minutes or so watching a film makes me feel really happy. This movie is one of it. It floored me.Adam Sandler plays Robbie Hart, a wedding singer with only enough money to get by. He was going to get married, but Linda, his fiancé', doesn't show up at their wedding. As for Drew Barrymore, she plays Julia Sullivan, a girl engaged to the rich but wrong man. They meet when Julia is waitressing at the place Robbie works at. They instantly become friends and get along quite well. Their individual charm is appealing. On top of that, I'm totally impressed that they are quite sincere. The air plane "proposal" is a sweet highlight. Although this ending is quite predictable, the process of getting there keeps me on the edge of my seat. This movie will leave you in stitches!
Geeky Randy After being ditched at the alter, wedding singer (and aspiring rockstar) Sandler decides to give up love for good and live life as a bachelor, until he falls for coworker Barrymore and ends up helping her plan her wedding to womanizing Glave. The soundtrack is amongst some of the better 1980s playlists out there, and even if you don't care about a retro flashback, this outing is still a charming romantic-comedy. Some of the laughs are more side-jokes than plot related, and Sandler has a few moments of his annoying trademark tirade, but why pry too much when it has the fun, romance and ability to be replayed no different than your favorite '80s record? ★★★½ (out of four)
2karl- well I got to see this funny Adam Sander trip down memory lane for a 80s soundtrack to the wedding singer he play a guy called Robbie hart play weddings and loves his songs and when he gets jilted by his future wife who love him in the past and not his present self he goes mental and destroys other people wedding but he meets a lovely waitress she helps him pick his heart up and sing songs of love hate songs which she likes he likes her put Julia has a boyfriend who is a jack ass this film has a sweet and funny moments that shy boy that wants a dance but cant ask a lovely waitress to dance a piano lesson old lady and a bank manager that wont give someone a job because they wont help the person as they say they like money they have a lot and like there jar but has great cameos to help our forlorne hero like a 80 singer billy to come to the rescue for love that whats the 80s where fun loving don't stop believing and more like 99 red balloons
alombardy I am not a fan of Adam Sandler. His comedy is usually crude and panders to the lowest common denominator of cinema-goer. So why do I tolerate, nay enjoy his performance in this movie?I think it's because this was one of his earlier efforts and as such he didn't have as much creative control as he does over the tripe he makes now. The comedy is family friendly but actually genuinely good for the most part, the romance is just about on the scale of believable, and the soundtrack is upbeat and fits the tone.Part of the success of this movie for me is the fact that it's a 90s movie about the 80s, which we don't see very often. The result is the innocent naiveté of the 90s mixed with the elaborate, flamboyant extravagance of the preceding decade and it's a winning combination. It culminates in just a general 'feel-good' vibe that thrives in the midst of safe but quality comedy and a cheesy, predictable yet satisfying narrative.Billy Idol's cameo is a highlight and fairly veteran actors such as Steve Buscemi turn in surprisingly adept comic performances alongside Sandler and Drew Barrymore as the romantic leads. The shame, of course, is that people will form an opinion of this move when they see Sandler's face on the front and it may well turn them away from a corny yet very good comedy worth seeing. 7/10.
