| The Wedding Singer Review |
| by Christian Pyle |
| If the 70's nostalgia didn't make you feel old, the 80's nostalgia is bound to.
One of the latter set, "The Wedding Singer," seems to be written by someone
who did not experience the 1980's directly but only read about them in an
article in Parade...more |

| It's just your basic romantic comedy. It's also an eighties film (so if you
hated the eighties …) On the overall the film is all right, not too good,
not too bad. But, watching in dejected calm, staring as the screen threatens
epilepsy at 24 frames per...more |

mother that Boy George was not a girl, no matter how good his makeup and
no matter how womanly his features...more |

| For example, in HAPPY GILMORE, Sandler plays a rookie golfer trying to beat
a self-confident jerk of a pro. If the star were any other comic, that would
be enough motivation to drive the movie, but with Sandler, the rookie also
wants to win the prize...more |

| Adam Sandler turns up the charm in his latest romantic comedy, The
Wedding Singer. Unfortunately, that also has the effect of softening
his edge. He's nowhere near his peak of Happy Gilmore, not that it was
much of one. He's certainly not helped here...more |

lynched. Well lynch...more |
