Not sure if its funnyness is entirely intentional. It's from that era in the 1980s (after Life of Brian and before Four Weddings) when the British film industry was pretty much funded by George Harrison.

It's got an 'interesting' ensemble cast featuring Michael Caine, Billy Connolly, Fulton Mackay, Leonard Rossiter (I think it might have been his final performance on film), Ruby Wax and, er, Ringo Starr (playing himself).

Billy Connolly plays a half-Caribbean revolutionary who only communicates via the medium of reggae, sung in a Scottish accent. Can't figure out why this one didn't set the box office ablaze.

O' Horten. Brimming with charm and a clever, gentle humour missing in much of today's filmage. I fell in love with it.

At the other end of the scale is an Adam Sandler 'buddy' film. That description in itself would normally send me reaching for the off button but I really enjoyed this emotional cheesefest. Everything from marital meltdown life crises to hot psychotherapists and nympho-psycho all the way to a motorised mini-scooter journey through New York and a bit of Shadow Of The Colossus button-mashing. Entertaining.

Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid
I don't think its been shown on TV for years, it's possibly the only Steve Martin film where he's funny without being a gurning idiot.
Brilliant usage of classic noir movie footage cut with modern stuff.
Genius.

+1 for The Guard.

Welcome To Woop Woop. From the same director as Priscilla Queen of The Desert - a small time American crook goes to Austrialia and promises a woman that he'd love her forever. She decks him and he wakes up married in the town of Woop Woop.

A sweary clip - NSFW

The trailer -

Watching it will make you as happy as a bastard on Father's Day. 😉

The Gods must be Crazy and the second film in the series are hilarious. And the 2nd film even features a Honey Badger who steals the show. 🙂

If you want to see a very offbeat, obscene, grotesque, rude and downright hilarious Birtish Comedy Horror, keep and eye open for "The Revenge of Billy the Kid".

Now what old goat did that?

One of the worst films I've ever seen.

Very funny if you like Airplane, Saturday night live type of thing. Very much of its time though.

Seem to remember a shower scene....

Seeing as someone mentioned 'Sightseers':

'Nuts In May' by Mike Leigh.

Lost count of the times I've gurned and hooted with delight at terminally uptight Keith Pratt failing to hold in his apoplexy before turning a nice peaceful Dorset campsite into a primal battleground.

The perfect British comedy, sparkling with both understated and overt comic genius.

Actually pretty funny and a couple of cracking tunes too.

Twin Town is worth a watch.
I quite enjoyed Cockneys vs Zombies, if only for Dudley Sutton's made up rhyming slang.
