53 best comedy movies of all time that will have you crying with laughter
Comedy movies make our world go around, especially here at the GLAMOUR HQ, where we love to laugh. And with good reason: a healthy dose of laughter helps boost your mood and get those happy hormones pumping. It’s literally science.
Don’t believe us? Well, studies show that the short-term benefits of laughter include *cue speedy pharmaceutical advert style voice*: intake of oxygen-rich air; stimulation of muscles including your heart and lungs; increased endorphins; activation and relief of your stress response; and muscle relaxation. We also hear that laughter is a pretty cheap way to help fix a broken heart, and for that, we say thank you. Basically, we're not saying you should trade the aspirin for a comedy flick, but putting on a funny movie won't hurt. And we know the very best ones to get those endorphins flowing.
So, we have rounded up what we believe are the best comedy movies of all time. From recent hits such as Senior Year and Polite Society to cult classics like Wedding Crashers, Napoleon Dynamite, Mean Girls, and Easy A to nineties favourites such as Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery and Wayne's World, these are 53 of the best films to stick on for some of ‘the best medicine’…
