It's a common belief that the target audience for romance movies are women. Well, that's true, but that doesn't mean a man can't enjoy a good rom-com. Especially if it's made from a man's point of view or focuses on a male gaze.
Now, male Redditors have gathered online to discuss their favorite movies and have discovered 5 of the best romance gems that any man would enjoy. Here they are!
1. The Wedding Singer (1998)
One of Adam Sandler’s best movies to date, The Wedding Singer centers on Robbie Hart, the performer who sings the hits of the 80’s at weddings, and a waitress named Julia Sullivan, played by Drew Barrymore.
The actors have been together in many movies since they first played the couple in this one.
“It is without a doubt, my favorite film of his. It has so much heart while still retaining just the right amount of that trademark Sandler silliness.

Drew Barrymore is definitely rapper Bryce Vine’s jam. His hit song “Drew Barrymore” dominated the charts in 2019 and he recently described Barrymore as his ideal dream girl.
Vine told Showbiz Cheat Sheet that he wanted to capture Barrymore’s essence in the song. “But it’s also like just representing her. That iconic beauty, personality, coolness, hipness, all in one package. It’s kind of what that song was representing,” he said.
Drew Barrymore was Bryce Vine’s crush
Vine recalled how Barrymore was his childhood crush. “The movie The Wedding Singer, that particular Drew Barrymore was my crush, like 1997,” he said. In The Wedding Singer, Barrymore played Julia Sullivan a young waitress who was dating Glenn, a lunky bond broker. Julia’s sweetness and playfulness steals recently dumped wedding singer, Robbie Hart’s (Adam Sandler) heart. Robbie and Julia form a friendship that could be true love.

On Feb. 13, 1998, New Line unveiled The Wedding Singer in theaters in time for Valentine’s Day audiences. The Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore rom-com went on to earn 123 million globally at the box office. The Hollywood Reporter’s original review is below.
We’ve all heard him, usually at weddings and bar mitzvahs where alcohol often blurs true appreciation of his talents. Song stylist extraordinaire, he has the uncanny ability to make virtually any song, even “In-a-Gadda-Da-Vida,” sound like “Hot Hot Hot.”
Now, thanks to Adam Sandler, he has been finally given his due in The Wedding Singer, a (for the most part) winning romantic comedy that plays off the per former’s sweet, loopy personality. Despite a saggy middle stymied by sappy good intentions, the picture stands as Sandler’s best effort.
Demographically, expect some thing of a trade-off. While all the lovey-dovey stuff might turn off some of his partying young male fans,...

The Woodstock Film Festival has announced the slate for its 22nd edition, with 11 world premieres among the 43 features on the bill.
The festival will take place September 29 to October 3 in three Hudson Valley communities about two hours north of New York City. In-person screenings and events will be featured throughout the fest’s five days, but online options will also enable attendees to connect amid the ongoing challenges of Covid-19.

Adam Sandler reprised one of his best roles at a wedding for a lucky bride and groom, except this time he wasn't crooning about how much love stinks ... just hoopin'. The newly hitched couple, Tatiana and Karan, hit up a park Saturday in Boca Raton, Fl -- where they were set to take pictures with Palm Beach Photography -- and the pair noticed a familiar face on the basketball court ... none other than Robbie Hart himself.

In Adam Sandler’s 1998 comedy The Wedding Singer, the actor’s emotionally distraught Robbie Hart discovers a selection of mismatched outsiders he deems “the mutants over at table 9.” Imagine an entire film centering on the wedding attendees that have all been relegated to just such a position at a wedding reception, and you have a solid idea of what Table 19 at first appears to be shooting for. Yet, while the film clearly purports itself to be an alternative take on the concept of a wedding comedy, it cannot resist the temptation to embrace cliché before the credits roll.
Written and directed by Jeffrey Blitz of the Comedy Central series Review, the film follows post-breakup Eloise (Anna Kendrick) as she and a group of strangers wind up sharing seats at the titular table.

When people think of marriage they think of having a best friend being there for you through thick and thin, having beautiful children, having someone who loves you for who you are and indispensable sex. However, that fantasy is hardly the case and marriage takes work–a lot of work. You have to think about finances, careers, adultery, lack of sleep if you have children, letting go of your dreams, keeping the love alive, and how people change as time passes on.
If those reasons are not enough, all you have to do is watch these 10 Infamous Moments to confirm that perhaps, marriage may not be a good idea.

Little-known fact: Ever since the anti-Commie masterpiece "Red Dawn" debuted in 1984 with the first-ever PG-13 rating, the MPAA has rationed out F-bombs to PG-13 movies like a master offering up gruel to orphans in a Dickens novel — one per.
Of course, the MPAA being the shady, Illuminati-like organization that it is, the rule is subject to their strange, nonsensical whims, and occasionally more than one is allowed in, or none at all. But for the most part, it stands that PG-13 writers and directors have to reserve their "f**ks" for the best moment possible.
With that in mind, we've assembled a list of movies that put their F-bombs-in-hole to the best use.

1998 promises to be a big year for Hollywood, with the eagerly anticipated Steven Spielberg World War II drama Saving Private Ryan on the way, a reboot of the classic monster movie Godzilla arriving in July, as well as a late summer big screen version of The Avengers, with Ralph Fiennes as John Steed, Uma Thurman as Emma Peel, and Sean Connery as Sir August de Wynter.
The winter months have typically been somewhat fallow as far as Hollywood is concerned. The big guns are slated for summer, those blockbusters and popcorn flicks we all love, and many films seen as Oscar contenders show up in the fall. The studio slate so far this year has not been totally top-notch, but there have been a few gems, including a couple that were little seen but are worth seeking out on cable or video cassette.

Will Adam Sandler be showing us a slightly sweeter side now that he's paired up with his old co-star Drew Barrymore for a romantic comedy? According to Variety, the untitled flick, the stars' third together, is about two divorcees who go on a terrible blind date but find common ground when they show up at the same family resort with their kids from previous marriages. Originally titled "Blended," the film will be directed by Frank Coraci, the man behind the duo's first on-screen outing "The Wedding Singer." Sandler's character in the film, lovelorn musician Robbie Hart, is one of his most popular, although plenty of comedy fans have enjoyed him in previous Coraci collaborations like "The Waterboy" and "Click." Sandler and Barrymore also sparked love in 2004's "50 First Dates," a weirdly funny rom-com about a man trying to woo a woman with short-term memory loss. In 2012, Sandler voiced the lead...

A seemingly pregnant Drew Barrymore is supposedly on her way to walking down the aisle this Saturday. Yes, that is a lot of possibilities and not a definite confirmation but it looks like Drew really is ready to say "I do" to fiance Will Kopelman in just a few hours. The two announced their engagement in January 2012 and weeks later drew in even more buzz when the actress seemed to be carrying a sonogram after a doctor visit.
Drew was recently spotted with best friend Cameron Diaz attending her final wedding dress fitting at the Chanel store in Beverly Hills and its been rumored that she wants to wed before the baby is born.
Drew is extremely talented and a favorite when it comes to actors in Hollywood. We've seen her grow up since her E.T. days and have seen the transition from actor to executive producer. Some of her...

Sometimes a fart joke just works better with a melody. Of course, combining the two is an art form mastered by only an elite few ... a select group of artists who can not only master quality songs, but make us all squirt milk out of our noses at the same time. And, thanks to "Saturday Night Live" and Andy Samberg, we'd like to welcome a new member to that, uh, exclusive club: The Lonely Island, a so-called "joke band" that truly stands alone.
Don’t worry if the name doesn’t ring a bell, because chances are, you know their hits ... classics like "I Just Had Sex (feat. Akon)," "The Creep (feat. Nicki Minaj)" and, of course, "I’m On a Boat," their parody of all things T.Pain that also, amazingly enough, features T.Pain himself. Comprised of Samberg and his pals Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone,...

With Adam Sandler’s Just Go With It (co-starring Jennifer Aniston and Nicole Kidman) hitting theaters this weekend, we figured the time was right to revisit the funny-man’s cinematic best. The release represents Sandler’s 21st feature role — does that number surprise anyone else? I waded through the pile and decided on the best of the best. So without further ado, here’s my list of the Top 7 Adam Sandler Films to date:

Dir. Robbie Hart, Luc Côté (2010, Canada, 104 min.)
Turning 32 asks an impossible but fascinating question: what parts of growing up are universal? A sequel to the 1992 television series Turing 16, this film reconnects with the principal characters of that series and traces the direction of their lives. It jumps back and forth in time and exploring the difference between expectation and reality, naiveté and experience, and modernity and tradition. Knowledge of the original television series is not necessary; directors Hart and Côté integrate the most interesting and relevant portions of Turning 16 into their film, minus the embarrassingly PSA feel of that series.
The main appeal of Turning 32 is they way it balances broad scope with very personal stories. Filming takes place in Jamaica, Brazil, Thailand, Niger, and India, and though the filmmakers work to portray the cultures of their settings, they always put their protagonists first. In Jamaica they follow Rosie, a...

The overabundance of Katherine Heigl, Jennifer Aniston, cliché stories and cheesy dialogue isn't the only down side of the romantic comedy genre; Rte News is reporting that this type of movie is responsible for ruining love lives. An Australian survey revealed half of the 1,000 people polled blame the gushy and unrealistic stories for destroying their personal romances. One in four said they felt as though they were expected to know what their partner was thinking while one in five claim the movies made their partners expect gifts regardless of an occasion.
Even if you think you're as hard as a rock and can tell the difference between fact and glamorized fiction, I'd like to bet a majority of moviegoers out there have caught themselves comparing a moment or even their entire relationship to one in a film. Why can't I magically be paired up with the right guy like in The Holiday?...

Lately, it has been crazy gorgeous outside. I guess this is the “nice” weather that comes around once a year. We’re taking advantage of it, this week specifically. We have two outdoor screenings! Tomorrow (Thursday), we’ve partnered with Amoa again to screen Nashville at the beautiful Laguna Gloria! Saturday, Tim and Karrie League are opening their home for a MS150 BeneFeast screening of Triplets Of Belleville!
