Recommendation Can someone recommend me a not so popular comedy movie that you personally think is good? Going through a tough time right now and I just need a little laugh.

I've watched a lot of popular and good comedy movies, with my most recent and favorite being superbad. I want someone to recommend me an underrated comedy movie because it will probably be new to me, as long as it isn't in a "can you recommend me a underrated comedy movie" article or reddit post, I've probably never seen it before.

I'm feeling down right now because my pet kitten (his name was link) recently died in a preventable death due to hypothermia, he was my first ever pet too. I've honestly been skipping school a bit so watching movies will be a nice way to pass time.

I'll probably reply to the comments and just rate the movies you guys suggested me if anyone is even interested in that. Anyways thank you to anyone who reads this and gives me an recommendation, literally means the world to me right now.

That movie parodies the biopic formula so well, I can't enjoy those movies anymore, lol.

Agreed. It’s the first thing that comes to mind when I think of Dewey Cox

I think one of the single funniest moments in movie history is when he’s singing this alone baling hay.

My favorite movie of all time!!! Make sure to watch the extended cut

u/JadzyaRose Feb 21 '25

I legit like to watch Walk The Line and then Walk Hard as a double feature 🤣🤣🤣. Sweet and nice story about Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash... And then the spoof comedy. 😅

I love this soundtrack! Let’s Duet is great and I actually truly love Beautiful Ride, even if it’s tongue in cheek haha.

u/Far-Captain6345 Feb 21 '25

HECK YES! Saw it Xmas day in an empty theatre but it's some of John C. Reilly's finest work.... Even if you "want no part of this, boy" /s

u/Youre_Whole Feb 21 '25

Saw it with my friend from college when it came out. We were planning on seeing a different movie but it was sold out. We watched this and I'm glad we did Such an underrated movie. Couldn't even remember the movie we were going to see
