Floating back in time in 1985...Robbie (Adam Sandler) is a wedding singer who aspires to become a singer/songwriter but now is just looking forward to marrying his fiancee, Linda (Angela Featherstone), who eventually dumps him at their wedding. Robbie then meets Julia (Drew Barrymore), a waitress at the restaurant at which he works. She's engaged to Wall Street stock broker Glenn (Matthew Glave), whom later Robbie finds out has been unfaithful to her and doesn't give a da*n about the wedding planning. While helping Julia planning her forthcoming wedding, Robbie falls in love with her. But misunderstanding causes an undesirable consequence and Robbie must chase the right girl of his life...
This movie is simply sweet. I usually am not especially fond of Adam Sandler's performances but I find him likeable in this one. Drew Barrymore's acting needs refinement, the two 'Charlie's Angels' flicks are nothing but disasters and she has a long way to go to get what she achieved for her work in 'E. T.'. HOWEVER, in 'The Wedding Singer' she is perfect. Not like her other films. She used to be a better actress back in those days when she played 'bad' girls, such as 'Guncrazy' and 'Mad Love'. I am pleased with her performance in this movie, though her hairdo doesn't look that 80s. The scene in which Sandler sings 'Holiday' miserably and 'Love Stinks' angrily is hilarious- he ends up in the rubbish. And on the aeroplane when he sings to Julia 'Grow Old with You' is truely romantic. All in all, a good romantic comedy.
