Few actors could make a fight scene look both thrilling and ridiculous at the same time, but Jackie Chan has always been one of them.

Directed by Wong Jing, the film is packed with fast action and physical comedy that only Chan can deliver so naturally.

Not every great comedy needs big stunts or loud jokes. Sometimes, all it takes is sharp writing and two people with great chemistry. Woody Allen directed and starred in this film alongside Diane Keaton, playing a married couple who suspect their neighbor has committed a murder. The humor comes naturally from how the two characters argue and investigate together. It is a smart and light film that feels more like spending time with good friends than watching a movie.

Peter and Bobby Farrelly took two of the least intelligent characters ever written and turned them into one of the most beloved comedy duos of the 90s. Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels play Lloyd and Harry, two friends who drive across the country to return a briefcase to a woman Lloyd has fallen for. The jokes are loud, silly, and completely shameless. What keeps the film fun is the genuine friendship between the two leads that feels real even in the most absurd moments.

Joel and Ethan Coen have always made films that are hard to place in just one category, and "The Big Lebowski" is perhaps their strangest. Jeff Bridges plays Jeffrey Lebowski, a laid back man who gets pulled into a kidnapping case after being mistaken for someone else. The film is full of odd characters, bizarre situations, and dry humor. It did not make a big impression when it first came out, but over time it became one of the most talked about cult classics in film history.

Tim Burton has always had a soft spot for outsiders, and Ed Wood is perhaps the ultimate outsider story. Johnny Depp plays the real life filmmaker Edward D. Wood Jr., widely known for making some of the worst films ever produced. But Burton does not make fun of him. Instead, the film shows a man who truly loved cinema and never stopped creating, no matter what people said. It is funny, strange, and surprisingly touching, which is everything a great Tim Burton film should be.
