I read somewhere that the submarine maneuvers they did in DP were more realistic than the ones in The Hunt for Red October.

HTTM is the funniest movie listed in this thread so far. Probably not underrated though.

Okay I have come up with my 2nd underrated comedy, Seven Psychopaths.  So much to recommend here, written and directed by Martin McDonagh, who also wrote In Bruges, Three Billboards Outside of Ebbing Missouri and The Banshees of Inisherin.  He just creates extremely complex and entertaining characters. The cast is phenomenal---Farrell, Walken, Harrelson and Sam Rockwell. I have been a huge fan of Rockwell for years, the guy just goes all-in for every role. Dark comedy, stories within stories and just some of the goofiest characters ever.  Big thumbs up and my 2nd pick for this list

#1) KUNG POW ( Enter the Fist ) 

#2) ISHTAR ( The Movie sucks, but the songs and comedy from Dustin Hoffman & Warren Beatty is epic )

#3) A MIGHTY WIND ~ BEST IN SHOW ~ WAITING FOR GUFFMAN ( all of these movies by these guys )

#4)

I'll take the bait. 

Adam Sandler had some really stellar work early in his career. 

Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, The Wedding Singer, The Waterboy, and a memorable cameo in Dirty Work, possibly Norm MacDonald's finest work. 

Since then....meh. 

Will Ferrell 

Talladega Nights, Step Brothers, The Other Guys, Anchorman.....those films alone takes him out of the terrible bucket. 

“The Other Guys” was a gem.

That movie has multiple scenes that kill me. Dirty Mike and The Boys! 😂😂
