Top 5 Wedding Films
The Wedding Singer
Love it! You can t beat a drunk, surly and thoroughly dejected front man when it comes to the wedding band. Usually the bastion of the squeeze box, the weekend DJ, or in this case the Cover Band . Adam Sandler is note perfect in this romantic comedy. Special mention must go to Billy Idol and of course the outstanding 80 s sound track. If you ve not seen this one, then why bother getting married at all?
The Wedding Crashers
Another comedy one here, this time Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn bring their superb on screen chemistry and innate natural comedy to the screen. These two are just the sort of folks you DO want turning up at your wedding, as they seem to bring the funny with them where ever they go! Isla Fisher is a revelation as the slightly deranged, sex craved nimpho. Fun for the whole family, well maybe not old Aunty Doris! But as the great Billy Connelly once said They ve not only said it, they ve done it as well .
Four Weddings and a Funeral
Ahhhh, does anymore need to be said about this one? Launched the career of floppy haired English professional posh type Hugh Grant and made everyone feel all warm and fuzzy by the end of it. Funny and touching in equal measure, it s a real classic. Apart from that Is it raining, I hadn t noticed line, it s a cracking piece of comic writing and holds up as well today as did in 1994! Crikey 1994! Can you believe that!
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers
HAHA, MEN STEAL WOMEN AND HOLD THEM CAPTIVE, WHIST SINGING TO THEM! You can just imagine them pitching that idea eh? Couldn t get away with that these days, that s for sure! Not only has it got songs and laughs and big colourful set pieces, it all ends happily ever after. Just like all marriages do in real life. Wonderful!
Kill Bill 1 & 2
What? It s got a wedding in it. In fact the wedding is where all the action takes place. So, it s not the most romantic of outcomes but I think you ll find it falls squarely into the wedding category. So come have a look at Uma strutting her stuff, all you have to do is sit back and count the bodies!
Till the next time, Ding Dong, Ding Dong, Ding Dong, ahhhhhhh
