Best Comedy Movies To Watch For a Good Laugh

It has been repeated time and time by people from all walks of life that laughter is the best medicine, but we still do not live with a smile on our faces.

Why? What are we missing?

Laughter is a great way to relieve stress and tension. This will help you feel more relaxed and calm. It also helps improve your mood and make you happier. This can help you improve your self-esteem and confidence. And as Charlie Chaplin put it “A day without laughter is a day wasted.”

Allow us to give you a boost. To ensure you don’t waste any days, here are a few movies you can watch that will throw you into laughing fits. Since these movies have been out for a while now, you can watch them online or on-demand with Spectrum Cable and even catch the reruns on the extensive channel lineup of this cable provider.

1. Bridesmaids

Kristen Wiig plays Annie, a Bridget Jones-esque thirtysomething who lost her bakery during the recession and her boyfriend soon after, and now finds herself in a demoralizing relationship with the smart and condescending Ted (Jon Hamm).

When her old friend Lillian (Maya Rudolph) asks to be her maid of honor, Annie jumps in, but soon finds herself competing with Lillian’s new, rich, and perfect friend Helen (Rose Byrne).

While Bridesmaids is entirely focused on the wedding, most men forego the emphasis on female bonding. The movie shows the struggle of adults trying to get back on their feet.

The film uses extra shots and flows smoothly from place to place. No specific location is dwelt on for too long, which makes the film more interesting.

2. Couples Retreat

Couples Retreat is a funny comedy about four couples who go on a weeklong vacation to a resort where they develop their “relationship skills.” The story is predictable at times but makes the viewer want to see how couples solve their marital problems.

The main message of the film is that marriage should be a lifelong commitment. Although this is not a comedy, there are still some very funny moments. Some of them are quintessential Vince Vaughn, like the Richard Simmons argument.

3. Planes, Trains, and Automobiles

Hughes is very adept at writing scripts with so much humor and an incredibly moving core story because the brief moments of seriousness have an even greater impact.

Essentially, the story is about how Steve Martin (Neal Page’s character name) has been working from home for a long time and faces an endless series of transportation problems while trying to get home in the Chicago area.

By chance, he meets John Candy (character name Dell Griffith), a sociable, irritable, and talkative traveling salesman. One of John Hughes’ greatest comedies, Planes, Trains and Automobiles is as moving and affecting as it is funny. This is the best Thanksgiving movie ever made and the dramatic sequences mix well with the humorous scenes.

You’ll fall in love with Dell Griffith and Neil Page, and their grand quest to get home for the holidays will stay with you long after the credits roll. This is not to be missed.

4. Legally Blonde

Legally Blonde is not completely a comedy movie, but it will still make you laugh. Legally Blonde is a smart and always romantic comedy at its core.

Reese Witherspoon plays college student Elle Woods, who has recently been dumped by her talkative Oval Office star boyfriend for being “Marilyn” material rather than Jackie O. So it has a radical transformation from a crazy Delta Nu, depending on her relationship status, to a fun-loving lawyer who is probably better off without a man.

This movie is mostly light-hearted, with dramatic undertones, but still brings out the laughs.

5. We’re The Millers

Small-time pot dealer David (Sudeikis) is robbed and forced by his friend and boss Brad (Ed Helms) to drive south of the border and return a van full of weed for the 4th of July weekend. We’re the Millers doesn’t always pay off, but it has a rich comedic element with the contrast between the innocent families on the front lines and the brutal characters behind them.

Of course, with a star cast like that, the movie was destined to hit the mark.

6. Home Alone

If you were looking for something old and easy on the brain, this classic is the answer.

Yes, it’s been years since this was released, however, Home Alone is one of the timeless movies that will make you laugh regardless of how many times you’ve seen it.

And if you haven’t seen it already, boy are you in for a treat!

Set in Chicago, the film follows eight-year-old Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin), who is accidentally left home alone while trying to defend his home from two determined, if not very smart, burglars.

The adventure is filled with slapstick comedy and witty lines, and the film’s ability to not take itself too seriously is its greatest strength. Home Alone has stood the test of time and remains an entertaining, humorous film. This light-hearted adventure is sure to bring a smile to viewers of all ages, whether they’re seeing it for the first time or have made it a holiday tradition.

There are fantastic fantasy fulfillment elements where Kevin does whatever the kids want. He stays up late, eats what he wants, and can grow up.

7. Pitch Perfect

Pitch Perfect is both a comedy and a musical film. Elizabeth Banks and John Michael Higgins again provide plenty of laughs, this time somehow justifying their existence in this world.

 Pitch Perfect is the story of two Barden University cappella groups: The Barden Bellas and the Treblemakers. The Treblemakers are considered the best of the best and consistently win the Southeast Region competition, and while the Barden Bellas are good, they have had a few problems along the way. Rebel Wilson is a brilliant actress who stands out and is truly alone. skillfully carries the “comedy” nature of the entire film.

Wrapping it up

Sometimes all you need to do is hop on the couch, eat a few peanut butter pretzels, and watch a movie that will make you laugh and relieve your stress.

In these strange times, you need to detox emotionally and just let yourself relax. We hope these movies can help you to do that. Happy watching!
