I’ve seen a lot of funny movies, from basic comedy to romantic comedy. The funniest one I ever saw might have been one with Don Knotts and Tim Conway. Unfortunately, I can’t remember which one I am talking about. There are a lot of recent funny ones, but I’m definitely not big on gross out humor and profanity. What is the funniest movie you’ve ever seen?

Years ago we saw The Gods Must Be Crazy and I thought that was hilarious.

I saw that one too. It was a very good movie..I guess it was funny. I don't remember it that well.

I love that old Topper movie with Cary Grant. I wish I could find the TV series called Topper but either those weren't filmed or the film has decayed

The movie that starred the late Tim Conway and the late Don Knotts is likely "The Prizefighter" which looks a like a spoof of the "Rocky Balboa" franchise. The funniest movie I saw was "The Disorderly Orderly" that starred the late Jerry Lewis as an intern in a hospital.

Oh man. I don't know about the funniest movie I've ever seen. Spaceballs is probably fairly high up on that list.

@AmbiePam It's Mel Brooks, and its funny. There's another one he does, that has Gene Wilder in it but I can't remember what it is called right now.

Classic (b&w) would be The More the Merrier with Jean Arthur. Screwball comedy before Lucille Ball came along. (In fact, she probably learned a thing or two from it.) More modern: Blazing Saddles. An absolutely perfect spoof of westerns…with a message behind all the guffaws.

Dennis the Menace with Walter Matthau. I think the one you mention is "The Private Eye", that was funny.

That sounds like that’s the one, thank you. That Dennis the Menace movie was definitely funny.

@AmbiePam - I like to watch funny movies, life is often hard enough without being depressed by movies.

One of my all time faves is First Wives Club with Bett Midler, Goldie Hawn, and Diane Keaton. It's one of the few movies I've watched more than once.

It's really hard to say what the funniest is to me. I do always enjoy watching the original John Hughes "Home Alone" franchise. I think it has some pretty hilarious moments.
