    Adam Sandler is pitch-perfect in his role here as hopelessly romantic cabaret wedding singer Robbie Hart, who falls in love with waitress Julia (Drew Barrymore) at a nuptial function only to discover that she's engaged to someone else. The chemistry between the two stars works like a charm and director Frank Coraci has enormous fun with the music, fashions and fads of the mid-1980s setting. This good-natured, entertaining romp has a knowing sense of the ridiculous and it's topped off by a great pop soundtrack.

    Best Feel Good Film

    This has to be my favourite all time film!

    A sweet down to earth man meeting the girl of his dreams after being left at the altar. Throw in a cross-dressing keyboard player, mullet hair-do's an eighties setting and it makes a good movie for me.

    Its easy to watch and Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore bounce of each other perfectly ... cant wait for their latest collaboration - 50 first dates.

    Makes ya wanna laugh, cry and throw on those leg warmers. ( =

    Watch It!!

    A great pairing!

    I'm very surprised this is the first review of this great comedy.

    Drew and Adam are a perfect match, to spar jokes off each other. This film is about as it says a "Wedding Singer" who starts to lose the plot, after being dumped at his own wedding.

    From being the best "wedding Singer" money can buy, he turns into a emotional wreck, who trys to bring everyone down with him.

    Then a new waitress comes to town (Drew), who does her best to get him to look on the bright side.

    The jokes come thick and fast, supported by one of the best soundtracks ever.... if you like your 80's music.

    Watch out for the scene when Adam Sandler plays a song he really did write himself, pure genius ;p

    If you liked '50 First Dates', then you will love this as well.

    Rent it, I very much doubt you will regret it.
