Everyone loves comedies, and it is the best genre choice when you go home after a long day at work. They will make you laugh and most importantly you will relax and forget about daily worries. Here are top 15 (plus 15) comedy movies ever filmed.
Trading Places
This movie critiques the 80s so-called Decade of Greed and in the film, two millionaires find a conman bum Billy Ray Valentine played by Eddie Murphy and breed it into a gentleman who takes over the job of the managing director called Louis Winthrope III.
Happy Gilmore
Adam Sandler from the 90’s – classic. He is a hockey player called Happy who can whack a golf ball better than pros, and in order to help her grandmother on a financial plan, he goes on the PGA tour.
Dazed & Confused
If you ever wonder what the 1970s were like in the US, just watch Dazed & Confused that follows Randall Floyd’s last day of school. Everything was great – soundtrack, costumes and you can see McConaughey saying: “That’s what I love about these high school girls, man. I get older, they stay the same age.”
Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy
Ron Burgundy is a pretentious news anchor, and he falls in love with a woman who becomes his co-anchor. Will Ferrell, who leads the way, and his team are famous for random comical situations and ridiculous antics.
Hot Fuzz
A London cop, Nicholas Angel, played by Simon Pegg is a big-time city cop, but he gets transferred to a small village where nothing happens until the killing spree starts. There is a lot of action and tongue-in-cheek comedy which will make you laugh.
Airplane
The movie is filled with deadpan humor and follows an ex-fighter pilot who is afraid to fly the plane. Oh yeah, you can see Kareem Abdul-Jabbar as a pilot, that is pretty hilarious as well.
The Hangover
Don’t tell me you haven’t watched this movie when guys go to Vegas for a bachelor party, but they get so drunk that they don’t remember anything. And pay attention to Zach Galifianakis who nailed it.
American Pie
This one is classic – high school, prom night, four friends who are virgins who want to do “it” by prom. However, this one is not a stereotypical film about teenagers, because everybody has their own story and we guarantee you, this one will make you die (of laughter).
Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery
The James Bond parody with a taste of the 1960s. Austin Powers one of the funniest “arch nemesis takes over the world” action-comedy films.
Old School
When Mitch comes home early from the business trip, he finds his wife cheating on him and his friends led by Beanie (Vince Vaughn) and brilliant Will Ferrell decide to bring back the college years, so they start a fraternity.
There is Something About Marry
Everyone fell in love with a stunning, charismatic girl who was just “perfect” but who paid no attention to us. The same thing happens to Ben Stiller in this comedy, but things change when she finds out that he is a wealthy man. It is an amusing comedy with the great atmosphere and beautiful Mary.
Friday
Friday with Ice Cube and Chris Tucker is just a spot-on. It presents the southern LA culture, and it is totally opposite of the movie called Boyz N The Hood. It’s charismatic, and Chris Tucker is just hilarious as this one describes a Friday in LA.
Step Brothers
Brennan Huff and Dale Doback have just found out that they are step brothers but the funny part is that they are unemployed and they are 40 years old. They are forced to live together and hate each other’s guts, but over time they find out that they are the same. It’s Will Ferrell, guys, so prepare for “stupid” and absurd humor.
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Before we give you a brief insight into this movie, we need to mention that the actress Kristen Bell, who portrays Sarah Marshall, is smokin’ hot. Jason Segel is her ex-boyfriend Peter, and in order to forget her, he goes to Hawaii, but guess what? He meets her there with another guy. There are a crude humor and great jokes, plus Segel gets to meet Mila Kunis there.
The Royal Tenenbaums
The Tenenbaums are dysfunctional and Royal Tenenbaum, the father of the family, says that he is dying, so everyone is reunited. The cast is great starring Gene Hackman, Anjelica Huston, Ben Stiller, Gwyneth Paltrow, Luke Wilson, Owen Wilson, Danny Glover and Bill Murray.
