Hey, my lovelies!
Once again, welcome to my blog and since it's a Saturday, I'm going to help you find some low-cost methods of entertainment. All you need is your laptop, internet and probably a few snacks because yeah, you guessed it... we're going to talk about the all time best classic movies that will surely put a smile on your face without burning a hole in your pocket.
Let's dive right in, shall we!
Here is a list of my favorite comedy movies that I know will always turn my money-tight Saturdays into a bearable weekend:
1. White Chicks
White Chicks was released on June 23, 2004, starring the hilarious Wayan brothers and Terry Crews, among others. The movie is about a pair of Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents, don whiteface to go undercover as white women in order to solve a pair of kidnappings. I guarantee this movie will have you cackling every few minutes and it will give you a really good time, cross my heart.
2. Scary Movie
Another one by the Wayan brothers, Scary Movie is a 2000 horror comedy parody film directed by Keenen Ivory Wayans, as part of Warner Bros. Entertainment. It is an American dark comedy which heavily parodies the horror, slasher, and mystery genres. Several mid and late-90s films and TV shows are spoofed, most predominantly Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer, along with The Sixth Sense, The Usual Suspects, The Matrix, The Blair Witch Project and Dawson's Creek. If ever you're in the mood for a bit of a spook and a lot of laughs, this is a classic you should not miss out on.
3. Coming to America
Coming to America casts comedian Eddie Murphy as pampered African prince Akeem, who rebels against an arranged marriage and heads to America to find a new bride. Murphy's regal father (James Earl Jones) agrees to allow the prince 40 days to roam the U.S., sending the prince's faithful retainer Semmi (Arsenio Hall) along to make sure nothing untoward happens. To avoid fortune hunters, Prince Akeem conceals his true identity and gets a "Joe job" at a fast-food restaurant.
Eddie Murphy has proven to be one of the funniest comedians over the yeas and this is just one of his finest works. Best part is, a 'Coming to America 2' can be expected in 2020.
4. The pacifier
This is one of my all time favorites because imagine the huge Vin Diesel acting as a babysitter and having to sing lullabies while doing funny dances.
In this movie, Navy SEAL Shane Wolfe is handed a new assignment after recovering from the wounds received in a failed rescue operation: Protect the five Plummer kids from enemies of their recently deceased father -- a government scientist whose top-secret experiment remains in the kids' house. If you want to see the softer side of Vin Diesel, give this one a shot.
5. Cheaper by the dozen 2
This Steve Martin classic will keep you on your toes. With a number of celebrities from Hillary Duff to Alyson Stone, Cheaper by the dozen is a perfect family movie to watch for all ages who just want to laugh.
Tom Baker (Steve Martin) and his wife, Kate (Bonnie Hunt), take their children for what they hope will be a relaxing summer at a lakeside resort. When the Bakers end up with the shoddiest unit imaginable, a clueless but well-meaning Tom struggles to repair it himself. To make matters worse, Tom's old nemesis -- Jimmy Murtaugh (Eugene Levy) -- and his similarly gigantic family appear on the scene and engage the Bakers in a not-so-friendly rivalry that threatens to spoil their trip.
So there you have it! These are some of my favorite classic movies of all time and I am more than happy to share them with you. All you have to do is get the popcorn popping and enjoy your weekend with these hilarious comedies.
I would love to hear your feedback, so be sure to tell me your favorite comedy movies and lets the world a better place one laugh at a time. Till next time my lovelies!😘
