15 People Share the Funniest Movie They’ve Ever Seen
There is always that one movie that makes people laugh harder than anything else. It might be a comedy everyone knows, an old favorite that somehow never gets boring, or a completely unexpected choice that someone remembers because they could barely breathe while watching it. Reddit recently asked people to name the funniest movie they had ever seen, and the answers quickly turned into a wonderfully chaotic collection of comedy favorites. Some picks are obvious classics, while others reveal very specific senses of humor. These are the movies people brought up when asked for the one film that made them laugh harder than any other, and the choices are seriously tempting.
Airplane! (1980)
Redditors had a hard time arguing against this one, especially because the jokes come so relentlessly that there is barely time to recover before another one arrives, with several people calling it an all time comedy favorite
Blazing Saddles (1974)
This Mel Brooks classic remains a favorite decades later, with people in the thread pointing out how many jokes still land after countless viewings and how completely unhinged the movie becomes near the end
Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)
One Redditor remembered watching it as a kid and laughing before the opening credits were even finished, while others immediately started quoting some of its most ridiculous moments
Rat Race (2001)
The chaotic race comedy earned several enthusiastic mentions, with one commenter even recommending its older inspiration, It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World, for anyone who enjoys that particular kind of madness
Team America: World Police (2004)
The combination of deliberately ridiculous puppetry and completely outrageous comedy made this an easy pick, with one person remembering laughing so hard during the opening that they could barely breathe
Dumb and Dumber (1994)
For several people, this was the ultimate answer, with one Redditor saying they had never laughed harder at a movie and another praising it as one of the most quotable comedies ever made
Tucker and Dale vs Evil (2010)
This horror comedy surprised viewers who expected something stupid and forgettable, only to discover a genuinely clever movie that had them laughing through its increasingly ridiculous chain of accidents
Superbad (2007)
The movie continues to resonate with viewers who recognize its awkward teenage conversations, and one commenter described watching it repeatedly even decades after being that age themselves
Tropic Thunder (2008)
Robert Downey Jr., Ben Stiller, and Jack Black delivered the kind of ridiculous comedy that Redditors still quote years later, with one person immediately bringing up one of the movie’s most famous lines

For some Redditors, seeing this in a packed theater was an unforgettable experience, with one person describing laughter so intense that audiences could barely hear the dialogue during certain scenes

The bizarre antics of the Vermont State Police crew earned a spot from Redditors who clearly still remember its jokes years later, with one commenter affectionately calling it the greatest police documentary ever made

One viewer said they were completely exhausted after leaving the theater, which might be the most appropriate review possible for a movie built around one spectacularly disastrous night

Its painfully familiar workplace comedy still connected with Redditors, making it a particularly strong choice for anyone who has ever stared at a computer screen and wondered why their job exists
Clue (1985)
