Borat:Cultural Learnings of America For Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan is a Brilliant movie,you cannot stop laughing during the whole movie.

The Dictator is one of the funniest movies of all time.In the movie there are combination of ridiculous shock and satirical comedy that is stupid yet intelligent in the sense that it sheds light on stupid things society sometimes believes about Arabic people.

11.22 Jump Street
IMDb Rating: 7/10 (over 382k votes)
Release Year:2014
Duration:1h 52m
Director:Christopher Miller,Phil Lord
Although some sequels don't really hold up to the originals at times, 22 Jump Street definitely delivers hilarious and over the sequences of hilarious and action-packed scenes throughout that Hill and Tatum once again deliver as the hilarious characters. Let's also mention that it breaks the 4th wall throughout the whole entire film. 22 Jump Street is definitely worth a sequel to watch. Again, not all the jokes don't hold up, but still an entertaining film.

12.Yes Man
IMDb Rating: 6.8/10 (over 366k votes)
Release Year:2008
Duration:1h 44m
Director:Peyton Reed
A fun movie. Jim Carrey is great, the acting is fine and the concept is good. It's unfortunately cliche and falls short of its potential, but as a movie to sit and watch with your lover with the lights turned low, it's the perfect mixture of comedy and romance that'll make you realize just how much you love her. I just wish Carrey weren't forced to play it so straight, if he were to have had more of his Carrey-isms he's famous for, this movie would be as good as Bruce Almighty.

13.Me, Myself & Irene
IMDb Rating: 6.6/10 (over 240k votes)
Release Year: 2000
Duration:1h 56m
Director:Bobby Farrelly,Peter Farrelly
I love this movie so much. I’m watching it right now and every time I get a chance. Jim Carrey is comedy magic pure and simple. I can’t imagine what kind of person could get through that cow scene without howling! It’s legitimately my favorite scene in any movie ever. I love you Jim Carrey and want to thank you for all the laughs.

Click starring adam sandler is a hilarious movie akin to Absolutely Anything and very ahead of it’s time. The movie has a great concept and taste in humor.

Little Miss Sunshine is one of best funnny and cutest movie. The chemistry between the characters is amazing and never thought I would see Steve Carrel in a role like the one he has in this movie. This is not only a good watch, but a movie that teaches one of the most important thing is that with family, no matter what happens, you still have each other.
-
17.ANCHORMAN

Release Year: 2004

Anchorman first release back in 2004 and still remains one of best comedy movie. It was utterly ridiculous good had so many quotable lines and likable characters. Although still funny, it does feel a bit slow to start but it certainly picks up the pace as the film moves forward.
-

-

21.The Big Short
IMDb Rating: 7.8/10 (over 437k votes)
Release Year:2015
Duration:2h 10m
Director: Adam McKay
The Big Short is a surprise package of comedy. It is concerned with something that is not generally a cup of tea for the large audience. And yet, it manages to entice all the complex key concepts and happenings that led to the financial crisis from a very different perspective with the help of Great Adrenaline rush Acting, infusion of a docu-drama style with heavy dose of Black comedy, innovative style of explaining complex financial terms and functions etc. to make things digestible and entertaining at the same time. This is a movie that can be watched as many times as you want, you're never gonna get bored.
-
22.Get Smart
IMDb Rating: 6.5/10 (over 220k votes)
Release Year:2008
Duration:1h 50m
Director:Peter Segal
Get Smart is a great spy movie or parody. It has great acting and a good twist. The tv show was okay but this movie is brilliantly awesome and funny. It is entertaining. I am a big fan of Dwayne Johnson and Steve carrel. And they did a great job in this movie. This movie is definitely a thumbs up. Now the action was overall good and the comedy was great, it was funny. The movie had no bad parts in my opinion. I loved it and watch it all the time. It is a ok movie for kids, there is some bad language but not to much and some rude humor. One scene of butt nudity.
-
23.The Proposal
IMDb Rating: 6.7/10 (over 333k votes)
Release Year:2009
Duration:1h 48m
Director:Anne Fletcher
The Proposal is a Very entertaining movie. It made you laugh often. The opening sequence was hilarious. I think Ryan Reynolds shine in these light comedies where he doesn’t overact the funny parts. Sandra Bullock is always good at these things. And Betty White was a gem. Good movie to pass the time and relax to.
-
24.The Big Lebowski
IMDb Rating: 8.1/10 (over 814k votes)
Release Year:1998
Duration:1h 57m
Director:Ethan Coen,Joel Coen
The Big Lebowski being 21 year old but still one of the funniest movie ever. Jeff Bridges and John Goodman's performance was just crazy and at it's best they just disappeared into the role. There is no doubt that this movie was way ahead of it's time as people and some critics didn't understand it fully and now it has achieved a cult status & rightfully so. It is also the kind of movie that gets funnier every time you re-watch it and still feels fresh no matter how many times you watch it.
-
25.Monty Python and the Holy Grail
IMDb Rating: 8.2/10 (over 545k votes)
Release Year:1975
Duration:1h 31m
Director:Terry Gilliam,Terry Jones
Monty Python and the Holy Grail is one of a kind from 1775. Each joke stands on its own and can make the viewer laugh . Seeing such a well known situation as the Knights of The Round Table in the absurdity that only Monty Python can handle makes a masterpiece completely unlike any other movie. This shows that great movies are not only Shindler's List and Godfather high brow pieces of art, but also comedy filled romps.
