He has big boofy hair, big poofy shoulder pads and a big line-up of 80's electronic songs. But it is 1985 after all and Robbie Hart (Adam Sandler) is the most talented, thin-black-tie-wearing wedding singer in town. In between asking if "Video Killed the Radio Star" or pleading "Do you really want to Hurt Me?", he schmoozes the tafetta-clad crowd, giving the bride and groom the ultimate "White Wedding". However, when Robbie's own fiancee dumps him at the altar, his act turns tragic. Now he's singing "Love Stinks" and depressing the newlyweds before they've even started married life! He's hit an all time low, until new waitress, Julia (Drew Barrymore), shows up. Now "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic" but there's one small obstacle: her fiancee. (Warner Bros. AU)

English It's definitely not the best Sandler movie, it's quite far from that, but the combination of Sandler and Barrymore just works every time. You can root for both of them, even though the story is unbelievably predictable and doesn't surprise the viewer at all. That's the main flaw of the film. It's overly generic. ()

English I admit that I didn't finish it. Not that I lack a sense of romance or that I am opposed to the idea of comedic entertainment, but I am far from interested in this kind of romance and variations of comedy. For me, it is an extremely boring and non-functional film. Overall impression: 20%. ()

English I couldn't give it a lower rating because of Adam, Steve Buscemi and Jon Lovitz, and partly Drew, who was at least pretty cute, if nothing else. It is, after all, quite an innocent and pleasant romantic diversion that doesn’t overflow with originality and surprisingly spares a lot of jokes (incredibly restrained humour by Sandler's standards!), but it doesn't spoil anything with a sweet story, a few retro songs and a classic but infectiously upbeat happy ending. I just keep wondering why he didn't want her friend instead, idiot... :-) 60% ()
