This is one of my all time favorite movies. I haven't found a movie comparable.

One of my all-time favorites. Bill Murray is fantastic in this fable that is really enduring and comical. A real classic.

This movie got me hooked on Paul Giomotti. His performance was so candid and accessible, that you really forget you are watching actors. I've watched some others by the same director but none captured the mood as "Sideways" did. A wonderful movie with great performances....highly recommended.

Most Will Ferrel comedies are just plain old stupid. This One is stupid and really funny.

The Simpson are just great. You could always rely on a Simpsons episode to get you through. Clever, originally, tons of cultural references and irreverent. What more could you want?

classic Cohen brothers flick...lots of twist and turns.....off the wall comedy with that signature Cohen brothers style. While I think that there are other Cohen brothers films that are better and less known this one still deserves its place among the best cult of films of all time.

I was really surprised by this movie. I thought it would be one of those cheesy romantic comedies, but no it was actually very intelligently written and unpredictable. It leaves you with a nice feeling too. Definitely recommend this one.

Christopher guess is really underrated. This movie, like his others is hilarious and really captures the small town experience. Really funny stuff.

The best in the series of Zucker movies and where it all started in this genre for me. Stupid, absurd, just the way I like it. Some of the most memorable moments in film comedy that I can think of.

While not as good or consistent as Seinfeld, for the Seinfeld not still a treat. It has some great moments. And it has that clever hallmark of Larry David writing, when little details intertwine and all come together at the end. It started of no so great but really picked up and is fast becoming my favorite show currently on tv

Super funny. I think Christopher Guest is very underrated. Even during his stint on Saturday Night Live, he appeared in some of the best skits of that period. I enjoyed all of his movies. This one and This is Spinal Tap are classics.

This is hilarious at times. When it is funny it is brilliant and so well done that lines blur. I saw the movie first and wasn't that impressed, but the show had many incredibly funny and clever moments

It's a good show. As in "Politically Incorrect", Bill Mahr is able to get a diverse panel together and have interesting and entertaining debates. Don't get me wrong, I like Bill Mahr. I think he is intelligent, clever and of course funny. However he is becoming more and the focus of his own show. Many times I find myself annoyed by his inability to digress from his own agenda.

In my opinion, Kaurismaki is one of the funniest movie makers in the world. Master of dead pan humor and a legend in Finnish cinema....highly recommended as one of his masterpieces.

My favorite Kustrica movie. Back in the time when Johnny Depp was doing really interesting independent films. That seems a really long time ago!

The funniest of the Laars Van Trier movies. Quite a unique comedy.

Very funny and very imaginative. This was part of the wave of great films coming out of the Soviet Union, right before its collapse.

My favorite Laars Van Trier moving. Exceptionally moving and heart wrenching. This is the one that got me into his films. Incredible acting by Emily Watson.
