In the vast landscape of cinema, comedy has always held a special place. While the big-budget Hollywood blockbusters often dominate the spotlight, it’s time to shine a spotlight on some seriously underrated English comedy movies from the year 2022. These little gems might not have caused a stampede at the box office or set the internet on fire, but trust me, they’ve got the comedic mojo to make you snort-laugh and clutch your sides in stitches. So let’s take a look into the realm of the comedy genre, but beware, your stomach’s gonna hurt from the laughs!

  • The Banshees Of Inisherin

The Banshees of Inisherin charms with its offbeat humor and captivating storytelling. This underrated gem takes us on a whimsical journey to the fictional Irish village of Inisherin, where a talented cast lead by Colin Farell and Brendan Gleeson sets the stage for a delightful comedy. Picture a world where eccentric characters roam freely, and laughter is never in short supply.

The film’s secret sauce lies in its ability to blend dark humor with heartwarming moments, leaving audiences pleasantly surprised. The witty banter between the characters, brought to life by a talented ensemble cast, will have you chuckling non-stop. From unexpected plot twists to hilarious anecdotes, this movie is a barrel of laughs, but with an apt doze of serious moments.

  • The Duke

This delightful film transports us back to the swinging 60s in jolly old England, as we join the lovable rogue, Kempton Bunton, on an incredible true adventure to steal a priceless portrait from the National Gallery (why? watch it to find out). Led by a stellar performance from Jim Broadbent, the film shines in its ability to balance humor and poignancy.

While it may not boast flashy gimmicks or groundbreaking tricks, but The Duke captivates with its endearing characters and timeless themes of family, art, and staying true to our convictions. A feel-good gem that reminds us that sometimes, it’s the smaller stories that leave the biggest impact.

  • Good Luck To You, Leo Grande

Good Luck to You, Leo Grande is a delightful romantic comedy that hits all the right notes, even with its unconventional storyline. This feel-good film takes us on a journey alongside Nancy Stokes, played brilliantly by Emma Thompson, a 55-year-old widow who hires a casanova, Leo Grande, played by Fabienne Therese, to fulfill her intimate desires. But Leo turns out be an unexpected catalyst for Nancy’s journey of self-discovery.

Thompson’s impeccable comedic timing and the chemistry between the two leads elevate the film, making it a joy to watch. While the film could have done better with its pacing and character development, it still makes for a fun watch.

  • Official Competition

Official Competition packs a punch with its satirical take on the chaotic world of filmmaking. This comedy delivers sharp wit and a stellar ensemble cast lead by Antonio Banderas and Penélope Cruz. It hilariously explores the clash of egos and creative madness as a renowned director and an eccentric billionaire team up to create the ultimate film masterpiece.

While Official Competition thrives on its clever humor and self-awareness, the pacing could be uneven at times, and the narrative struggles to maintain consistent momentum. However, these minor setbacks do not overshadow the overall enjoyment of this entertaining and insightful satire that offers a backstage glimpse into the eccentricities of the film industry.

  • The Unbearable Weight Of Massive Talent
Source- YouTube- The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent Official Trailer/Lionsgate Movies

The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent is a meta and self-aware comedy that promises an entertaining ride. This film showcases Nicolas Cage playing a broke version of himself, who navigates a series of absurd and hilarious situations while attending a wealthy fan’s birthday party for money. It cleverly combines action, comedy, and nostalgic nods to Cage’s iconic movies, offering a treat for fans.

However, if you haven’t seen much of him, you might find the film’s meta humor and self-referential nature to be a bit excessive. Also it’s rather funny that in a movie based on Nicolas Cage, it is Pedro Pascal who steals the show. But who cares, all we need is a fun watch with an unique and amusing cinematic experience. Prepare to be entertained by the eccentricities of this self-aware comedy!

  • Fire Island

This feel-good film takes us on a journey with a group of queer friends as they navigate love, laughter, and unexpected surprises in a picturesque beach setting. With its vibrant backdrop and endearing cast, Fire Island captures the essence of carefree summer adventures. However, unforeseen circumstances arise, testing the resilience of the chosen family and pushing their summer adventures to the brink.

While certain comedic moments are predictable, and the overall plotline may follow a familiar formula, the film’s lighthearted humor and charming characters still make it an enjoyable watch.

From quirky characters and clever dialogue to unexpected plot twists and genuine moments of laughter, these films have reminded us of the power of comedy to entertain, uplift, and connect us on a deeper level. Do give these a watch, and remind yourself to be happy :))
