"Love stinks...yeah, yeah!!!"
The Wedding Singer is an extraordinary comedy set in the 80's. It's also the second pairing between director Frank Coraci and actor/comedian Adam Sandler (Happy Gilmore), the other movie that joins the two is The Waterboy which was released the same year. The movie also stars Drew Barrymore (Never Been Kissed).

Sandler plays Robbie Hart, a down-on-his-luck wedding singer who's dumped by his fiance on the day of their wedding. He lives in his sister's basement, and has a cross-dressing sidekick, played by Alexis Arquette who was the fourth guy in Bret's apartment who shoots and misses both John Travolta and Samuel Jackson in Pulp Fiction, who always sings Do You Really Want To Hurt Me by Culture Club. Barrymore plays Julia, a waitress at the banquet hall where Robbie sings, who's about to get married to a rich sleazeball named Glenn who dresses up like Don Johnson from Miami Vice and drives a Delorean from the Back To The Future movie. Robbie and Julia begin a friendship that seems so innocent but they slowly begin falling for one another. Robbie knows that Julia is the one for him and will do anything to get her even if it means that he should get some assistance from Billy Idol!

Enjoy the fun of The Wedding Singer and relive the 80's with all its hairstyles, fashion, and tunes featuring The Police, The Thompson Twins, Hall And Oates, Billy Idol, and a hilarious rendition of Rapper's Delight by Sugarhill Gang performed by Ellen Albertini Dow. The movie also features songs performed by Sandler himself: the hilarious Somebody Kill Me, and the sweet ballad Grow Old With You.

One of the best comedies of the 90's!

"Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?"
The Wedding Singer is a CLASSIC. This movie has Adam Sandler, Drew Barrymore, Christine Taylor, BILLY IDOL; I mean, come on, it doesn't get much better than that! It's set in the 1980's...'85 to be exact, which in itself is an adventure. It's about a wedding singer (Sandler) who is actually engaged to be married himself. Although, sadly, he gets stood up at the altar; which is where the story really begins. (And gets better, and better, and funnier, and funnier...) From the music, 80's hair, to the wardrobe, it's awesome. It's a great comedy and love story all rolled into one. BUY THIS...it should be in everyones DVD collection.

Funny
I don't know the name of the rock that I was living under but before buying this movie from Wal-Mart I had never heard of it. I enjoyed it though, I thought it was quite funny. Adam Sandler played a pretty pathetic person in the wedding singer, living in his sisters basement, getting jilted at the alter, and that rediculous hair cut (lol); everyone wore their hair like that in the eighties. The funniest scene in this movie for me, is when he sings the song that he wrote for Linda half before she jilted him and the other half afterwards. The song had such a manic depressive bi-polar sound to it that it makes me laugh just thinking about it.
