Superbad is decent, American pie. Shaun of the dead, soft spot for the inbetweeners as the show was absolutely brilliant.
top secret! is a (slightly) lesser known zaz one
the jerk and man with two brains (from when steve martin was funny)
i'm counting withnail and i as a comedy
duck soup
animal house
some like it hot
raising arizona
lots of early woody allen - up to and including annie hall (so take the money and run, sleeper, bananas, play it again sam)
and obviously anyone could name 50 laurel and hardy films/shorts that sh!t over most of these
I recommend Good Boys too. Like Superbad but with younger kids. Pushes the bar quite a bit 😂
What about Bob?
Stripes
Trading Places
Planes, Trains and Automobiles
The Hangover
Three Amigos
Spies Like Us
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
Ferris Bueller's Day Off
Ghostbusters
Beverly Hills Cop
Raising Arizona
The Naked Gun
Weird Science
The Blues Brothers
48 Hours
National Lampoon's anything with Chevy Chase
Old School
Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby
Walk Hard
Stepbrothers
Hall Pass
Ghosbusters
Police Academy
American Pie
Back to the Future
Fletch
Uncle Bob

not a great film overall, but the exam and "doctor" scenes are highlights of the 80s for me

totally agree about the L&H ones
80's was just a comedy fest man
Soul man
You won’t find that anywhere, it’s just so wrong.
The most I've laughed during a comedy movie was the time I watched The Life of Brian while on acid. But I also spent 30 minutes laughing painfully hard at a random comment made by my mate Dave which, looking back, wasn't even funny, so there's probably an asterisk against this one.
Little Monsters I thought was really good - Josh Gad plays a brilliant part - any time my kids have Mr Tumble on tele I can’t help but think that away from the cameras he’s trying to root all the mums 😂
On further consideration, I realised the only answer to Robb's question is The Big Lebowski
Am I the only one that doesn’t find Monty Python funny?!

i don't know if they're not that funny, or they've just been hammered to death by a million people talking about flesh wounds and dead parrots online, but you can count me in.
they're also tremendously smug - more so the tv shows than the films - and i don't think it's a huge surprise that some of them did very little acting outside mp, because they're not that good at it.
tl;dr no
If you want a truly bad but also good one then I recommend The Benchwarmers

Two UK which are actually funny
Withnail and I
Life of Brian
There's plenty more of course but can't be rsed thinking.
Wider point: most of the films I can think of that make you laugh out loud every few seconds I'd struggle to describe as great films per se. Is there a difference between funniest film (i.e. vehicle for gags) and a really good film with funny moments? I love most of the Coen Brothers output, for instance but (Lebowski excepted) I find the pure comedies way inferior to the darker films, and the deadpan humour of the latter stays with me much more.
Stepbrothers is a classic, I’m surprised it didn’t make that much in the box office

For me, a lot depends on what’s going on and who you’re with when you first see the film, but I have soft spots for (in no particular order):
Four Lions
Tropic Thunder
What’s The Worst That Could Happen
Nothing to Lose (the “there’s a spider on your head” scene still makes me cry)
Rush Hour
Hurly Burly
See No Evil, Hear No Evil
Zoolander
The Three Amigos
The Peter Sellers Panther films
Anchorman
