If you have seen a movie that make you laugh outloud, let me know. . A lot of these may not be purely funny but have sections that make me roll on the floor. Humor can be very ugly and even gross. Let me know if my sense of humor matches yours. They are roughly ordered by laughs. Some of these are funny from start to finish and some have a scene or two that is extremely hilarious. Really hard to order. All are worth seeing.
Kid left home alone vs burglars with later variations. Heavy slap-stick but tremendously funny. Like the first one best but they were all FUNNY.
OK OK its a series but its the only series I know that consistently has me rolling on the floor. My GOD its funny!
Easily one of the best movies I have ever seen. About friendship among four 12 year old boys on a walking expedition to find a missing boy's body. Its a Rob Reiner film based on "The body" by Steven King. Perhaps the best River Phoenix film. Not a comedy but it contains the funniest single scene I have ever seen (pies). Juvenile humor for sure. (and probably male humor - my wife did not think the scene was funny).
I have viewed the movie multiple times, the humor stands up and it is extremely funny each time. Bill Murray as the neurotic Bob Wiley, who seeks help from renowned psychiatrist Dr Leo Marvin (Richard Dreyfuss). I think its Murray's best part.
I picked it up because Paul Reiser and John Goodman were starring. I almost canned it after a few minutes but I continued to watch, it couldn't be a sleazy B grade T&A movie with these stars. It didn't hurt that Liv Tyler was the sex interest. In any case, it is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. Until you see it, you will not believe that I was nearly rolling on the floor in tears of laughter during the shootout. Whats funny about a shootout? Watch. Certainly a different part for Reiser.
Its in French with English subtitles. From the same author as LA CAGE AUX FOLLES. On center stage is a self-centered publisher who has a weekly dinner with his friends: the one who brings the biggest idiot wins. He is sure he has a sure fire winner in a civil servant who make models out of match sticks. I thought I would bust a gut as the "idiot" turns the tables. Available at BlockBuster.
Its not for everyone but I loved it. Hilarous! Quirky! Weird! There were scenes where I thought I would bust a gut laughing. An experience. Four ensembles with as the unifying character having the bell hop's day in hell. There is a the witches coven, two funny kids, a jealous husband and a hollywood party. Appearing: , , , , , , , , and .
Film has some of the funniest scenes ever! Jim Carrey plays a motorcycle cop. In denial about his wife's affair, he's a nice guy who goes around trying to do the right thing but is taken advantage of every step of the way. Instead of confronting people, he takes the abuse, balls it up, and hides it in the pit of his stomach. His psyche can only take so much, though, and soon his alter-ego Hank pops out to do everything Charlie would never do. The movie is flawed by unnecessary horrendous and offensive language used by his sons.
Leslie Nelson and the Naked Gun series is very heavy handed slap-stick but tremendously funny. Liked the first one best but they were all FUNNY: , ,
A spoof with wonderfully exaggerated stereotypes. It has something to offend nearly anyone if you are the type to be offended by movies: there is the cop obsessed by his thin penis who harasses the gigalow; the heavy, no huge, compulsive eater, the narcoleptic, the Tourette's, the giant, and the onelegged customers; the classic pimp; his dad the bathroom attendent and mother, Bankock Betty. Its funny. It reaches my very low sense of humor. Where else can you see a sword fight scene where the hero defends himself with his girl friends artificial leg.
Ben Stiller ( , , , ) and
Robert DeNiro ( , ) . What a FUNNY FUNNY combination. Real belly laughs. If you think DeNiro being funny is a fluck, check out
Another very very funny DeNiro flick. Billy Crystal and DeNiro!
Bill Cosby: 49 (1987)
humor of achieving middle age - if you can find a copy, its wonderful.
His routines leave me rolling on the floor.
Yes, its a teenage film building to the graduation prom, but its handling of sexual obsession with male virginity is hilarous. Real belly laughs. Decent nudity. Great one liners.
One of the funniest movies I have ever seen. Starring Dan Aykroyd and John Candy.
Its the war with the gopher that gets the belly laughs. With Bill Murray, Rodney Dangerfield, Ted Knight, and Chevy Chase there are some pretty good laughs.
One of the funniest films out of Australia. The castle is a ramshackle suburban tract house so close to an airport that planes fly mere yards above the roof. Worse than that, it's built on a toxic landfill and right beside humming high-power lines. But it's home. When the owners of the airport serve Darryl notice that his home is being compulsorily purchased, Darryl hires a small-time lawyer and pursues his case all the way to the Australian Supreme Court. If you can find it, watch it.
John Candy and Steve Martin. What a combination. Get it if you haven't seen it.
What can I say? The movie is about a drug shipment stolen from the mob. The drug is a Mexican form of viagra and its being smuggled inside cows. Guess how one gets it out. Stupid, gross, funny, funny, funny
First really funny college life parody. Very low humor. Probably male only. If you have not seen it, you have missed a comedy classic.
Grandma Peggy dies when she trips over her lover's wooden legs going to the bathroom. Beau Bridges plays the lover, Delta Burke plays his wife and close friend of Peggy, Olivia Newton-John plays as Peggy's lesbian folk singer lover. Lots of Texas accents and humor. I loved it. I swear some of these people could be relatives.
OK. The waters have parted. The world is coming to an end. This is a wrestling movie, for god sake, that although truly bizarre, is truly FUNNY. Who would have believed it possible? The heros are waste disposal workers during the day and wrestling fans at night. Martin Landau playing the part of Sal Bandini, an old-time wrestler, was worth the price of the DVD alone. Lots of funny scenes if you like physical humor.
Joe Pesci and Danny Glover win a contest and get to go on a free fishing trip. The fishing trip doesn't go smoothly. Their car gets stolen, there's a hurricane, and many other catastrophes plague them. It is really funny. There are scenes that kill me.
I detest the horror genre in general. It combines enough adrenaline scary stuff with sex to grab the male hormone system of teenagers. But Army of Darkness, although filled with the classic elements, is a fantasy tale of good vs evil combined with a campy parody of chain saw movies. Not for children. But laced with lots of humor.
Its a series of skits, parodies loosely arranged around a spoof of Cat Women on the Moon which was a stinker of a B movie. Decent babes. Some real belly laughs. All fairly amusing.
