Movie Review, Analysis, and Deconstruction
Let’s set the stage.
In 1998, Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore brought 1980s nostalgia to the big screen with The Wedding Singer. Packed with synth-pop, awkward romances, and over-the-top wedding chaos, the film became a defining romantic comedy of its era. But does it still charm today, or is the humor firmly rooted in its decade?
