Very Funny Movies

Comedy Movies

The world can be a pretty scary place sometimes, so thank goodness we have funny movies to make us laugh. A number of recent comedy movies have done just that. The last four or five years have given audiences some truly hilarious&nbsp;films that are already on their way to achieving &quot;classic&quot; status. Other recently released comedies&nbsp;may not quite get elevated to that lofty level, but they provide&nbsp;a few&nbsp;hours of escapist entertainment nonetheless. The best new top comedy movies make you forget your problems for a little while at least. They send you away feeling upbeat and happy. Such an experience is always worth the price of a ticket or a rental fee.

Every generation produces its own stars. Modern comedies are driven by immensely talented performers such as Melissa McCarthy, Seth Rogen, Kevin Hart, Tiffany Haddish, and Amy Schumer, to name just a few. These are the people who are making their mark on cinematic humor in this decade.&nbsp;

Horror

Fall is a brutal survival thriller in which two women get trapped at the top of a 2,000 foot TV broadcasting tower. The entire movie is stressful - especially if you have a fear of heights - but the ending packs a particular punch. Below you will find movies like Fall that would make for a perfectly anxiety-inducing double feature.The 2010 film Frozen immediately comes to mind, as it also features a small cast of characters being stuck up high with seemingly no solution as to how to get back down again. The Descent, The Mist, 47 Meters Down are other great horror films that leave you feeling like you’ve been punched in the gut. If you’d like your twisted ending with a side of comedy, Happy Death Day is a great option. Oculus and Would You Rather, on the other hand, are good choices if you’d like to be left with your jaw dropped by the time the credits roll.Check out the movies like Fall below, and vote up the ones you like most. Then, head over to your favorite streaming services to check out any films you may have missed.

Adaptations

History has long fascinated filmmakers and audiences alike. For the former, there's the challenge of depicting past events accurately while presenting a fresh angle that will keep people watching, even if they know the outcome in advance. For the latter, seeing real events brought to life cinematically can provide new insights into chapters of history.&nbsp;With the volume of movies Hollywood produces each year, it's no surprise that some films cover the same historical ground, making perspective a key distinguishing factor. The following sets of films deal with the same historical events or time periods in very different manners. Watching either of them individually can give you a compelling outlook on the events at the center of their stories, and watching both as a double feature will give you a more well-rounded context because of how different their takes are.

Movies That Tell The Same Historical Story From Two Different Perspectives

Mike McGranaghan

Total Nerd

For every adaptation that cleans up at the box office or earns widespread critical acclaim, there are examples of Hollywood failing to do the source material justice. Sometimes, for one reason or another, the magic simply isn’t there, often because of weaknesses in the direction, the performances, or the script (or sometimes all three).Every so often, however, there’s a performance in one of these movies which somehow manages to lift up at least the scenes in which they appear. In the most exemplary cases, such performances can even make the film much more enjoyable than it would otherwise manage to be, which in turn leads to a deeper appreciation for their charisma and prowess as actors.

And Now: Something Different

It&#39;s a true feat of screenwriting when a movie&#39;s plot comes full circle. Developing a story that credibly boomerangs takes a great deal of skill and imagination. In returning to the beginning, the plot has to devise a way to make that feel like a progression for the characters, rather than a regression. In other words, they have to gain something by reverting to the start.

The following films&nbsp;are all examples of this in action. Their characters begin in one location or in some specific scenario. From there, they go out on a journey that&#39;s filled with tribulations. At the end, either by choice or circumstance, they&#39;re dropped right back off where they started. Despite that, they&#39;ve grown in the interim, so they aren&#39;t 100% the same as they were initially. The movies are potent because that idea is crystal clear in their respective stories. By going in a loop, the protagonists are changed in important ways.

Which of these movies best comes full circle at the end? Your votes will decide.&nbsp;

The Best Fantasy Movies Of 2023

The Best 2023 Fantasy Movies, Ranked By Fans

There is no betrayal in cinematic history quite like&nbsp;R-rated movies with PG-13 sequels. An R isn&#39;t just a rating -&nbsp;it&#39;s a signifier of a particular type of movie. These films are gritty and unyielding in their devotion to the filmmaker&#39;s&nbsp;vision. Nothing was censored or removed from the script to garner the wider release and bigger box office numbers that a PG-13 rating would earn. Sadly, sometimes <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/movie-franchise-worst-decisions/tyler-mitchell" target="_blank">greedy executives decide to cash in</a> on a franchise by watering down these R-rated movies with&nbsp;wimpy&nbsp;PG-13 sequels.&nbsp;

It&#39;s expected, but still sad, when a <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/movies-that-failed-to-pass-the-torch/josh-plainse" target="_blank">sequel doesn&#39;t have the same magic as its predecessor</a>. Sometimes a director changes. Other times, an actor gets too big to return. Occasionally, a studio starts to meddle a bit too much because the movie was a big success, and now the sequel has a bigger budget. And, worst of all, sometimes this meddling means the franchise that gained mainstream attention because it was an R-rated gorefest will now be a PG-13 film that cuts away before the action really gets started.

Remember to vote up the worst offenders.
