Mine is CHEAP DETECTIVE with Peter Falk in the main role and a great cast including Eileen Brennan, Marsha Mason, Louise Fletcher, James Coco, Dom de Luise, Fernando Lamas, Ann-Margaret, Sid Caesar, etc.

It's Neil Simon's parody of several classic Bogart films: CASABLANCA, TO HAVE AND HAVE NOT, THE BIG SLEEP, and THE MALTESE FALCON. I love these films but I think CHEAP DETECTIVE would be very funny even for those who havent seen those films.

So what's the funniest film you've ever seen?

Borat cracks me up every time I watch it. There are some parts I laugh at ALL the time. Bruno was really good too, but I've seen Borat more =P

My favorite comedies are Airplane, Groundhog Day, Planes, Trains and Automobiles, and National Lampoon's Vacation. They all still hold up today. :)

Right now I'm feeling like Kindergarten Cop is my favorite comedy.

I really like  The Pink Panther movies with chief inspector Clouseau A.K.A. Peter Sellers. Also all the Chevy Chase Vacation movies.

I must add Nuns on the Run, Splitting Heirs, and What's Up Doc to my list of favorites.
