5. Office Space (1999) Directed by Mike Judge, rated R, 89 minutes
Office Space will make you laugh, it's that simple. If you've worked in an office, it'll be that much funnier. It's about an office worker who hates his job, and decides to do something about it. Ron Livingston and Jennifer Aniston have great chemistry, and you'll be quoting Office Space for years to come. You'll like it if: You've ever worked in an office or you like comedy in general.

3. Fargo (1996) Directed By Joel Coen, rated R, 98 minutes
Fargo is a brilliantly written dark comedy/crime drama. Arguably the Coen brothers best film, Fargo is about a dimwitted husband who plans a fake kidnapping to make some money. Things go wrong, and a pregnant cop (played by Frances McDormand who won the OscarTM for best actress) has to solve the crime. The acting is great all around, and the Minnesota winter setting is perfect (plenty of hilarious Minnesotan accents). You'll like it if: You like dark comedies, crime-comedies or other films by the Coen brothers.
2. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) Directed by Michael Gondry, rated R, 108 minutes
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind may be the finest romantic comedy since Annie Hall. It tells the story of a couple, perfectly played by Kate Winslet and Jim Carrey (in a serious role) that after things go sour, have each other erased from their minds with a new procedure. Written by the best screenwriter around, Charlie Kaufman, and boldly directed by Michael Gondry, Eternal Sunshine manages to be a romantic comedy that even men will enjoy. You'll Like it if: You're a fan of romantic comedies, Jim Carrey, or Kate Winslet, or are looking for something original.
1. Magnolia (1999) Directed by P.T. Anderson, rated R, 188 minutes
Magnolia is an epic film about the interrelated stories of nine people in L.A. The entire ensemble cast, including Julianne Moore, William H. Macy, John C. Reilly and Tom Cruise (doing the best acting of his life), are all great. It's funny, heartbreaking, bizarre and interesting from the beginning to the end. You'll like it if: You like large scale, ambitious films, or are a big fan of film in general.
