My top 10 Comedy Movies

Comedy is a very personal thing. You probably have different ideas to me of what is funny. This post is a response to a discussion I had with a friend on our favourite comedy movies. I included two iconic Australian films (Crocodile Dundee and The Castle), British films by Monty Python and Rowan Atkinson (Mr Bean), and American films by Robin Williams, Mel Brooks and Mike Myers.

Australian

Crocodile Dundee (Paul Hogan) – 1983

The Castle (directed by Rob Sitch) – 1997

British

Life of Brian – Monty Python (1979)

Mr Bean’s Holiday – Rowan Atkinson (2007)

American

Good Morning Vietnam – Robin Williams (1987)

Mrs Doubtfire – Robin Williams (1993)

Blazing Saddles – Mel Brooks (1974)

Parody of Western movies.

Spaceballs – Mel Brooks (1987)
Parody of Star Wars, Alien and Planet of the Apes.

Flying High (Airplane) (1980)
