THE WEDDING SINGER is a romantic comedy with likable heroes. It’s also a reasonably witty send-up of the 1980’s. You get nostalgia and culture critique along with a fun romance.

Robbie, the singer, is a gentle do-gooder of moderate talent who not only provides the songs at wedding receptions but also goes out of his way to make the rough paths smooth. The job is an elegant metaphor for benevolence. Robbie is played with some charm by Adam Sandler, the normally obnoxious, bathroom obsessed Saturday Night Live comic.

Robbie tries to help out a waitress friend, Julia (Drew Barrymore), who’s planning an unlikely wedding to a boorish and womanizing junk bond broker. The obstacles arranged by writer Tim Herlihy and director Frank Coraci are fun as well as easy to jump.

Yet it’s the values you most admire in this unusual Gen-X comedy. Robbie’s best friend (Allen Covert) puts life’s essence about as well as it’s been done in any elite work of literature. Above average romantic nostalgia; some problem language and sexual innuendo.
