My favorite comedies are old movies, but are always good for a laugh, IMO.

A Night at the Opera (Marx Brothers)
What's Up Doc? ( Barbara Streisand And Ryan O'Neal)
Blazing Saddles

One of the funniest, and most un-politically correct comedies is "The Bank Dick" with W.C. Fields. Absolutely funny ! !

(He was a comedic genius!!)

Any comedy starring Adam Sandler or Robbin Williams is worth watching in my opinion.
If you want specifics though, I will have to say...

- Happy Gilmore.
- Big Daddy.
- Patch Adams.
- Mrs. Doubtfire.
- Anger Management.

UHF. Can't go wrong with this one.

I'd recommend Vampire's Kiss, but its a much darker film than some the others mentioned here, though Nic Cage is a hoot in this flick.

Yeah I think it had a few porn stars, but I wasn't familiar with them. The whole storyline just cracked me up.

Oh and I have to add Black Sheep, a movie I've seen recently from NZ. Gory but hilarious. Just the plot of altered sheeps taking over is historical.
