Critically-Panned Comedy Movies That Are Better Than Expected According to Slashfilm.com

"Hollywood comedies are a dime a dozen. Yet, many receive flak for their attempts to tickle our funny bones, while only a select few earn rave reviews or accolades from critics. Honestly, I can only think of a handful of comedic films that made their way to the tops of end-of-year lists ('As Good As It Gets,' 'Silver Linings Playbook,' and anything made by Wes Anderson, for example), while also recalling hundreds more that drew the ire of bigwigs like Roger Ebert and Gene Siskel for accomplishing what they set out to do. Don't get me wrong. Bad comedies exist, but everyone's sense of humor is different. At any rate, the purpose of a comedy is to supply laughs and entertain its audience. The purpose of this list is to highlight a handful of poorly reviewed comedies that are not as bad as the critics say and are worth adding to your watchlist." - slashfilm.com
