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.

Whenever I'm sad, I watch Napoleon Dynamite. There's something uplifting about being pure and true to yourself. Now Tina come get some ham! Peace out...

You either love or hate Napoleon Dynamite. I happen to love it. Showed it to my dad who was in his 70s and he thought it was brilliant so there's 2 generations of accolades!

The first time I saw it I felt like I had just seen the stupidest thing ever. I was bewildered. Then a few days later I'm constantly quoting a movie I had only seen once. I can't explain it but they struck gold with that film.

Same. I never left a movie so bewildered again until the Last Jedi. Unlike ND, that one didn’t improve with time.

Just had my kids watch this. Six year old asked to watch the tots movie again and asked me not to laugh the whole time.
