Great movie!

Roman Holiday
Princess Bride

Ones I haven't seen yet on this list or missed:

- The Wedding Planner
- How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
- Set it Up (newer, Netflix) - DD 13 and I have watched this multiple times
- Love and Basketball (not really funny but such a good movie)
- Lala Land (not really a comedy either but DD 13 loved it)

There's an old movie I remember with George Clooney and Michelle Pfieffer as stressed parents figuring out childcare or something like that. I can't remember but I remember liking it but it wasn't available anywhere when I looked.

Shakespeare in Love is now on Netflix, I think. I can't remember how appropriate or funny it is.

Many excellent ones mentioned here already, but may I also recommend Strictly Ballroom? I watched it with my 12 and 17 year old daughters, and they both loved it.

As Good As It Gets

The Wedding Planner with JLo (who is very good in this!) and Matthew McConaughey.

I'm a big fan of Definitely, Maybe with Ryan Reynolds.

Notting Hill.

Devil wears Prada and bring it on are also good choices

I watch the last 1/3 of Crazy Rich Asians when I need a feel good movie that feels empowering. Starting with the Peik Lin telling her to not be a chicken scene.

I watched it with my kids and they loved it. And found it funny in places that weren’t intended to be funny. They both say: “you will never be enough” in Michelle yeoh’s voice when something goes wrong now, and laugh hysterically.

I was going to say “anything with Hugh Grant”, and they were in “Two Weeks Notice” together.

OP, “About a Boy” is great!

Much Ado About Nothing with Kenneth Branagh and Emma Thompson is lively although "classic"
