The Wedding Singer [Totally Awesome Edition] [Blu-ray] [1998]

Well firstly let me just say how lame it is that someone posted that Adam Sandler can't act? He's obviously one of the top actors in the comedy genre, along with Jim Carrey, Will ferrell , and obviously others. It's fun to explore a different generation and make fun of it, which is part of what the film makers of this movie were going for, and who can't love the old singing hip hop, that's just plain funny! Not only that but you have this whole love triangle thing going on as far as the story, which is zany of coarse, but the plot does hold through since my friend that likes to be idiotically cynical on his posts. (not literally my friend or someone I know of coarse) I will have to help him out. Adam Sandler used to be a successful 70's rocker, however he becomes washed up and is still with a girl he met from this time. This girl is the one he wants to marry and ends up proposing to her, she does not show, with hilarious results. (such as singing angrily as a drunken wedding singer and fighting.) The girl he meets before at a wedding (who works as a caterer-Drew Barrymore- Very hot in this movie btw) Is getting married to a guy she thinks she loves as well, hence they are both with the wrong people yet find each other eventually. The guy she is with cheats on her, doesn't care to marry her ect. Well during the movie he dates her friend and to simplify Drew and Adam grow closer and closer together. So this movie like many other romantic comedy's follows the three act structure, where actors are brought together, have a falling out and then are brought together in the end for one of those warm touching moments. So there is my little synopsis, I hope you enjoyed reading and I highly recommend this movie if you want a good laugh, it is silly and zany, but I think that's the best kind of comedy.

Awesome movie for the 80's generation. What were we thinking, the soundtrack rocks and the Sandler crew does it agin in this 80's based love story.

The 5 star rating I've given this movie is well deserved. I've never been much of an Adam Sandler fan, but I still think this is one of the best movies I've ever seen which should give you some idea of how good it is. If you haven't seen this movie, you're missing a classic. The movie pokes fun at some cheesy 80's styles but frankly this movie could have been set in any era and been just as good because much like That 70's show, it's the underlying love story and humor which makes the movie so great, not the era it's set in. The soundtrack is one of the best ever, and this is one of the great love stories you'll ever see. The only negative I could mention is that this so-called special edition isn't all that special. It loses the full screen version which was available on the original dual format disk and to my knowledge theres only 1 new scene in this version and it was a bit flat in my opinion. So if you already have the regular version, I'd recommend skipping this version. If you don't have either version, I suppose you couldn't go wrong with either version but I personally find the original version to be perfect as was so I recommend the original version but to each their own. In any case, if you haven't seen this one, make a point to do so soon.

Adam Sandler can't act and the plot here is really thin. Sorry, but I suggest you watch this on cable when it is rerun for free...

WEDDING SINGER comes at the end of Sandler's swift rise to cinema stardom. His SNL time had showcased his variety of funny-man talents and then AIRHEADS, BILLY MADISON & HAPPY GILMORE cemented his big-screen presence into place. WEDDING SINGER works on allowing Sandler a wee bit more seriousness, kinda like Mike Myers in AXE MURDERER vs AUSTIN POWERS, while still letting him sing and act like a lovable goof. Borrowing vibes from the 80s rom-com, WS is broad & enjoyable entertainment! Especially when the Blu-ray is so perfectly priced!

This movie is been my childhood favourite by Adam Sandler! Great story line and still gets to me. Loving the 80's theme. Highly recommended!

Can't go wrong with this movie, it's a Adam Sandler Classic!

Entertaining movie for date night with your honey!
