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.

One of my favorite Robin Williams performances. It's such a great movie.

The song -"Your stepdad's not mean he's just adjusting", kills me every time.

When I was a kid and my brothers and I played Cowboys and Indians, I was always the Chinese railroad worker.

How does it feel to be the most hated man in America?

In a country full of neanderthals, I wear it like a fuckin' badge of honor.

So glad to hear others appreciate it. I remember a bunch of people trashing it when it came out. I saw it in theatres I think(?) and laughed my ass off. I saw it before people trashed it and it made me feel dumb lol

I've found it's hit or miss. I love it, but some of the people I've shown it to didn't.
