Good comedies for tween boy movie night?

Anonymous
My 13 year old just watched Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy. Weird movie, but they had all read the book as well.

Turner and Hooch should be a big hit at that age.

My tween son and I just watched Jerry Maguire. Funny, sporty and super corny lines to try out on girls - what more could a tween boy want?

OK... these movies don't really fit the OP's description, but I wanted to add them on in case anyone was searching for something to show tween boys...

Race to Witch Mountain (lots of action scenes, funny one-liners from Dwayne Johnson)
Big Game (action adventure coming-of-age movie from Finland)

My 11 and 12 year old boys loved both of them.

Sneakers -- mostly spy/action movie with humor, no violence

We recently showed our tweens Monty Python's Search for the Holy Grail -- we skipped the vestal virgin scene, the rest was appropriate for tweens.

Not a movie, but do these kids know about Studio C? Really great sketch comedy from BYU, so it's always clean. They release a short (5 min or less) sketch a couple times a week. My kids love them, and I think they are often really well done too.

Mrs. Doubtfire (though be aware that a gay character is shown in a positive light, but very '90s stereotyped)
Sister Act

Central Intelligence - Dwayne the rock Johnson and Kevin Hart - verging on inappropriate but really funny.

The Daddy's Home movies I had very low expectations for, but I'm just going to admit they both made me laugh out loud.

Paul Blart, Mall cop? i Haven't seen it but my 9 year old watched both at a sleepover recently.

I just watched Remember the Titans. I highly recommend it.

Porky's! It's a rite of passage for American boys.

If these kids are really soft, you could go with Adventures in Babysitting (original).

I cannot think of a parent on this planet who would let their tween watch a movie like Porky's. It is trashy and not even funny trashy.

Coen Brotvers version of the Three Stooges. Hilarious.

Awkward pervert movie and not funny. Animal House is still kind of funny but also a ‘no’ unless you want none of the parents to speak to you again (which might be nice).
