Quote:
The Wedding Singer is a 1998 romantic comedy film written by Tim Herlihy and directed by Frank Coraci. It stars Adam Sandler as a wedding singer in the 1980s and Drew Barrymore as a waitress with whom he falls in love.

The film was later adapted into a stage musical with the same title, debuting on Broadway in April 2006 and closing on New Year's Eve of that same year.

Definetely Adam Sandler's best movie, fun and touching. It wouldn't have been so great without Drew though.

8/10 (B+)

I love this movie. Its very cute and Sandler/Barrymore do have fun chemistry. I think the dialogue and situations were pretty light and upbeat, and this is still probably my favorite Sandler movie.

It's one of my favorite Adam Sandler movies. Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler have great chemistry, and the guy that plays a look a like Boy George is hysterical. It has a lot of hilarious parts, and I especially loved the old lady.

Great.

Probably Sandler's best "non-serious" performance and Drew Barrymore is absolutely adorable.

Sandler's Best, and awesome cameos by Buscemi and Jon Lovitz. It was a great satiracle comedy but was a hidden Rom Com, definately one of the better ones of the 90s. A

Not my favorite Sandler film, and certainly not his funniest. But it's rather sweet, and overall it's a better movie in itself than most of his stuff.

THE BEST film Sandler will ever make. Absolutely adorable and hilarious, with excellent rewatch value as well. One of my favorite movies.

Sandler and Berrymore make awsome rom-coms.

This and Fifty First Dates are two of the best rom-coms ever

Yeah, Sandler and Drew's best movie. Not just together, but each. You know the guy that looks like Boy George is one of the Arquettes? And you thought David was weird! As someone who was a teen in the 80's. I loved it. My grade: A-.

One of Sandler's best, but NOT the best, that would belong to HAPPY GILMORE!

Nursing Home Orderly: Good news, everybody, we're extending arts and crafts time by four hours today.
Old Woman: My fingers hurt.
Nursing Home Orderly: What's that?
Old Woman: My fingers hurt.
Nursing Home Orderly: Oh, well, now your back's gonna hurt, 'cause you just pulled landscaping duty. Anybody else's fingers hurt? ...I didn't think so.

Happy: Looks like a slight hill. Whaddya think?
Caddy: And a slant to the left.
Happy: That's 'cause you're only wearing one shoe.

Happy Gilmore: [to Bob Barker] The price is wrong, bitch!

Shooter McGavin: Stay out of my way, or you'll pay. Listen to what I say.
Happy Gilmore: Yeah, why don't I go eat some hay. I can make things out of clay, or lay by the bay, I just may. Whaddya say?

The Nursing Home Orderly: You can trouble me for a warm glass of shut-the-hell-up! Now, you will go to sleep or I will put you to sleep. You're in my world now, grandma.
