A charming, funny, 80's tale

Rating: 8/10 (5 July 2000)

Adam Sandler is at his most likable as Robbie Hart, a wedding singer whose fiance left him at the altar. He meets Julia (Drew Barrymore) and must persuade her that he's the right one for her, and away from her scummy fiance. It's a simple plot and a simple movie, but it works perfectly. Both Sandler and Barrymore are charming and funny, the supporting cast is terrific, especially Christine Taylor and an unbilled Steve Buscemi, and the 80's clothes, music, and cultural references are very funny.
