Crap day and need to watch an easy funny type film. Like free guy, guardians of the galaxy, kingsman type things I think? Drawing a blank

@TheSmallAssassin

I watched Game Night on a recommendation on here and I think that fits the bill too.
Also what we need but seen this!

@spacehardware

Presume you've seen deadpool but if not, deadpool

Old movie but desperately funny - reading places

Sadly seen it, but think it’s great!

Pixels is brilliant, easy watching and funny.
Agree with Galaxy Quest which I love
It's Complicated is brilliant, love a bit of Meryl Streep
Rock of Ages if you want something fun but with an added dose of music

I’d say Bad Neighbours then, but I do love Seth Rogan. And there’s a scene in it that I sometimes search for on YouTube and watch repeatedly.

Blockers?

BuddhaForMary · 05/03/2022 19:43

Dirty Gradpa with Zac Efron and Robert DiNero. Love that.

Jason Bateman.. oh, The Switch is funny. That's him with Jennifer Anniston.

Role Models, that's Paul Rudd. Brilliant humour.

@pheonixrebirth

TAG is really good and based on a true story. And it kicks off in the first 2 minutes.
TAG also a good suggestion but also seen! Also seen Shaun of the dead and meet the parents/fockers

I agree with @lugeforlife - Spy is very funny. I also like Central Intelligence with Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart.

Role models, bad neighbours seen…..
Maybe not switched for the plot today. But they would be the kind of actors we want!

Also love Zack and Miri Make A Porno (i think that’s the name!)

Couples retreat? I’m invested in this thread and now want to watch a funny movie Grin

Scout2016 · 05/03/2022 19:52

Something older and daft maybe then like Ferris Beuller's Day off, or Clockwise.

Danikm151 · 05/03/2022 19:52

Watched queenpins on prime last night. That was pretty good
