These are comedies I've seen at least a few times each, and most of them with my Dad who always laughs just as hard as me.
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation: **1/2 (of 4)
Grosse Point Blank: ***1/2
The Jerk: ***
The Full Monty: ***
Mystery Men: **
Office Space: ****
Rushmore: ***
I've changed this list around a little, and now I'm afraid this comment isn't terribly relevent to this list. Check out my other 2 new comedy lists: Funny Ha-Ha films, and Funny Peculiar films.
I have not seen a funnier movie than The Party with Peter Sellers. Try it , you'll like it!
Have you seen any classic comedies with cary Grant? Bringing Up Baby, His Girl Friday, The Awful Truth, and Philadelphia Story are all wonderful. Another great classic comedy actor was Alec Guiness; Kindhearts and Coronets, Lavendar Hill Mob, Ladykillers, and The Man in the White Suit are all good comedies. Kindhearts and Coronets is one of the all time funniest films. Lastly Preston Sturges directed some great comedies: Sullivan's Travels, Miracle of Morgan Creek, and Lady Eve are all wonderful.
Wow! Thanks for all the suggestions. I'll have to check a few of these out, and I'll let you know what I think. :-)
