Movie Reviews of The Wedding Singer
Movie Review: Early Adam Sandler Classic
Summary: 5 Stars
Adam Sandler plays sweet guy Robbie Hart in mid 1980's New Jersey. In my opinion, this is one of Sandler's best pictures (Happy Gilmore was the other classic). He's not a mega-blockbuster funnyman yet who's trying to be overly pretentious & hilarious here... maybe that's what draws me to this movie. Drew Barrymore is great as Julia, his friend and eventual wife (I was never a Barrymore fan until this movie). Some great scenes... Hart singing "Love Stinks" at one of his gigs; Hart on a few ocassions getting the best of Julia's ... boyfriend; Hart singing his soulful incomplete love song about his 'ex' to Julia; and Robbie's bandmate singing Culture Club's "Do You Really Want To Hurt Me" (twice). Sandler has a heart in this movie... he has wit, charm, and an unquitting character. Nice cameo by Mr."Dancin' With Myself", Billy Idol, and a great soundtrack - if you grew up liking 80's music.Movie Review: This movie made me fall in love with Drew Barrymore
Summary: 5 Stars
Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore have great chemistry in this drama about a wedding singer,Robbie Hart (played by Sandler). Robbie is a goodhearted wedding singer who gets paid in meatballs (along with money from others) by a energetic elderly woman. Robbie's fiancee Linda leaves him during the movie, towards the beginning. Now enters Julia. Julia (played by Barrymore) hires Robbie to help her plan her upcoming wedding to Glen Grulia. They soon become fast friends, but quickly fall in love. The problem is that Julia (soon to become "Julia Gulia") is already engaged. Julia later questions the authenticity of she and Glen's relationship with one hilarious near-closing scene. This is a HILARIOUS movie that I would recommend to anyone. The MPAA rated it PG-13, but it is worthy of a mere PG rating. If you have kids maybe 9+, they would enjoy it. It's great, for every generation. Happy movie viewing!Movie Review: The Wedding Singer...PRETTY GOOD!
Summary: 5 Stars
The Wedding Singer is a great romantic comedy that takes place in 1985. Robbie Hart (Adam Sandler) is a wedding singer, that was supposed to get married, but the marriage was called off when his fiance' never showed up. But he finds a girl name Julia (Drew Barrymore) which he likes better anyways. But you see, the problem is that Julia is supposed to get married also, but to a man who cheats on her, yet she doesn't know that. The story ends with the two, Julia and Robbie falling in love and geting married. Some of the DVD feature's are: Karaoke Bar (including Billy Idol-White Wedding, Sugar Hill Gang-Rapper's Delight, and a bunch of other 80's songs). The DVD has both widescreen and fullscreen versions of the film, 80's music trivia game, cast boigraphies and filmograhies, and a wedding album (photo gallery of the movie). If you like good, clean, fun comedy, i definetely recommend this DVD!!!Movie Review: A wonderful film
Summary: 5 Stars
More than any movie in recent years, this movie left me with a good feeling. I especially liked the understated humor and 80's nostalgia. This movie raises no controversial issues nor does it galvanize some universal truth at a moment in time. But it's still a great movie, a 5-star movie, a movie that I've watched several times.For those of you looking for movie *revolutions* and *masterpieces*, check out the DVD itself. In addition to the 'almost standard' DVD features (multiple languages and subtitles, wide screen and full screen), it includes Karoake songs (with and without the singer's voice), an 80's music trivia game, biographies, filmographies, and even a 'photo album' with select pictures from the movie. Though you may look at some of these and say "that's cheesy", this is the best job I've seen yet of exploiting the potential that DVDs offer to enhance movies.
Movie Review: How could anyone with a soul hate this movie?
Summary: 5 Stars
This was a really funny and sweet suprise to me. It wasn't exactly as funny as Happy Gilmore, but it had a better story and it was just a nice movie to viddy. I pretty much fell in love with Drew Barrymore after seeing this movie; she's really, really sweet in this one. Sandler also does a pretty good job at being a nice dude instead of his usual rude guy routine. I think the funniest part in the movie is when Jon Lovitz is like, "He's losing his mind... and I'm reaping all the benefits..." and then the curtain closes over his face really slowly and his facial expression just remains evil. HAHA! Doesn't make any sense does it? Yeah, well, the nonsense jokes are usually the funniest ones. If you haven't seen this movie yet, try buying it so you can pat yourself on the back later for having such good judgement.
