Watching The Wedding Singer is like being force-fed an overdose of '80s
culture and memorabilia coated with syrup. I realize that romantic comedies,
by their nature, are supposed to be feel-good experiences, but The Wedding
Singer overdoes it in the schmaltz department. This movie is sickeningly
sweet, and only a die-hard romantic or an avowed Adam Sandler fan will
be able to sit through the ninety-five minute feature without going into
sugar shock.
