What kind of films do you usually find funny mate? There's certain films I find funny that would be completely the opposite to some people on here and vice versa.

I found Deadpool to be hilarious.

Yeah i know what you mean, what people see as funny is probably the most varied avenue to explore.
I can only answer with some films i loved/liked over my life:

Something about Mary
Blazing Saddles
Airplane
Bad Grandpa
Spy
American Pie
Groudhog Day
Team America

Do you mean Bad Grandpa the Jackass one or Dirty Grandpa with De Niro? Cos Dirty Grandpa was very funny, the Jackass one was awful (imo).

Ok, so try War Dogs, Wedding Ringer, 21 Jump Street, Pain and Gain, Hitch... none of them are side splittingly funny but worth a watch.

The one film I have laughed uncontrollably at is Four Lions.

Spot on it was dirty gandpa, i though that was very funny.
Wedding ringer, 21 jump street and Hitch especially were great.
Pain and Gain i thought was awful mate.

This is, without doubt, the funniest film that I've ever seen. I've watched it dozens of times and I'll, hopefully, watch it a dozen times more

Only Billy Connolly (Billy and Albert) has made me cry more :emoticon-0100-smile

****ing hell that almost made me cry, I got to number 6 and started feeling the urge to punch myself unconscious just so it would stop.

Haha.

That ****ing thing is bonkers.

Brilliantly bonkers.
 
My wife wouldn't watch it, if I paid her £500 mate. Her attention span is awful.

I'm taking her to see Trainspotting 2 when it's released at the cinema and I'm already anticipating her falling asleep.

Did you go to see Trainspotting and if so what was the verdict?
 
How not to review a film mate. <laugh>

I'm going to avoid this film and hopefully forget it and see it accidentally, otherwise it's just going to do my nut right in.
The first video above features the promoter in "The Saphires" movie, watched it over the weekend and the film features some great R and B both the soundtrack (Sam and Dave etc,) and the versions featuring the band themselves , all round feel good movie.
 
Nope, Ewan McGregor did my head in with his Trump protests so it put me off a bit. I'll still watch it at some point but I'm not putting owt in that ****'s pocket.

Fair play, unless it's in a film actors are better not seen and not heard for that reason.

Chris O'Dowd, an Irish comedian, that clip is from the Sit Com The IT Crowd. Excellent if you haven't seen it.

I'll give that a look ta mate.
