‘You’re so money and you don’t even know it.’Ĭast: Jon Favreau, Vince Vaughn, Heather Graham, Ron LivingstonĪ decade before ‘bromance’ became its own subgenre, Jon Favreau broke through as a writer and actor by depicting male friendship as something more than just shoulder-slugs and high-fives. Spinal Tap: for those about to rock, we salute you. Guest, Michael McKean and Harry Shearer would keep gigging as Spinal Tap for three decades – proof that they were so much more than just a joke band in a funny movie. It also, lest we forget, defined an entire genre, accidentally inventing everything from The Office to The Blair Witch Project (not to mention lead axe-man Christopher Guest's entire subsequent career).
these ones go to eleven') and some of the meatiest metal melodies this side of Bon Scott-era AC/DC, this is simply a perfect film: from the first chord of 'Tonight I'm Gonna Rock You Tonight' to the very final line ('I dunno, what are the hours?'), there's literally nothing about it that could be improved.

Sporting arguably the most quotable script in movie history ('no. Yes, our experts have cast their votes and the winner by a clear margin is Rob Reiner's genre-setting mockumentary – or, if you will, rockumentary – about England's largest-livin', heaviest-riffin', filthiest-lyric-singin', biggest-hair-havin', fluffiest-jumper-ownin' heavy rock combo. You're asking, how much more funny could this be? And the answer is none. 🥰 The greatest romantic comedies of all time No matter your sense of humour – silly or sophisticated, light or dark, surreal or broad – you’ll find it represented here. In doing so, we believe we’ve found the 100 finest, most durable and most broadly appreciable laughers in history. To put together this list, we asked comedians like Diane Morgan and Russell Howard, actors such as John Boyega and Jodie Whittaker and a small army of Time Out writers about the movies that make them chuckle the hardest for longest. Comedies might rarely win Academy Awards, and most successful comic actors may strive to prove themselves as dramatic thespians, but the best comedy movies stick with us longer – and get rewatched more frequently – than just about any other type of film.
What causes an audience to nearly hyperventilate from laughter in 2022 might fall flat just a few years later, let alone a half-century.Īnd so, those that have kept us cracking up for decades are truly special. A heart-tugging drama will jerk tears just about everywhere, and a big, loud action flack will leave ears ringing and faces flush across time. Is there anything harder, after all, than getting a whole theatre to erupt with laughter?
