What is the funniest film of all time?

[garlictwist]

I'm having a bit of a sad day, twisted my knee in the snow and feeling a bit lonely. I want to watch something really funny to cheer myself up. Please send your recommendations this way.

Thanks everyone! I'm going to go for Planes, Trains and Automobiles. I expect great things

Another vote for Planes Trains and Automobiles. Laugh-out-loud funny and heartwarming too.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off
Adventures In Babysitting
Ice Age

40 Year old Virgin

Bridesmaids - the wedding dress shop scene practically has me needing hospitalisation

Oh God yes and 40 year old virgin - let's get some French toast.

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels with Michael Caine and Steve Martin.

The scene with the mantelpiece 😂

Toss up between Duck Soup and Some Like It Hot

The Naked Gun series, Anchorman, Johnny English.

BBC series Ghosts is excellent.

A million ways to die in the west

Another vote for Hot Fuzz

Spinal Tap has objectively given me the most laugh out loud funny moments but I also really enjoy Napoleon Dynamite as a different kind of funny.

Mean Girls is my favourite film and is definitely funny but again, Spinal Tap is more full of actual gags which are hilarious. The part where they're giving the interview and talking about their old band mate makes me cry

I also like some more slapstick things like Hot Rod, Anchor-man Zoolander and Step Brothers.

Omg yes Bridesmaids! Love that, and 40 Year Old Virgin and also Knocked up. Basically anything by Judd Apatow is decent. I'm not clued up on classic comedy though

Kiddies movie, but I thought the Croods were brilliant!

Spy with Melissa McCarthy
My cousin vinny

I agree with a lot of the above but I'm going to add:
Ace Ventura Pet Detective
In Bruge
The Hangover

It’s not really funny but Shirley Valentine always cheers me up!

Rough night is hilarious 😆

I love the police academy series, so funny and excellent acting.

Spinal Tap.

Hot shots part Deux. Anything by the Zuckers really.

The Princess Bride, can't believe no-one else said it yet

Deadpool

@clary
Yes yes to Some Like it Hot!
Daphne, you're leading again

I agree with Bridesmaids but I also love Mean Girls!

Blades of Glory always makes me chuckle too.
