Subpar romcom

Rating: 6/10 (5 April 2003)

"The Wedding Singer" is ordinary romantic comedy fare which tells of a best buddy couple (Sandler & Barrymmore) who are each engaged to someone else when, of course, they are really in love with each other. Sound familiar? This flick is an old story with a new paint job which borrows a summa-dis and summa-dat from a host of past romcoms while sporting little more than Sandler's unflappable style and a jumble of kookie characters. For romcom junkies and Sandler fans only. (C+)
