Getting the whole family to agree on a film is rare, these are the ones that genuinely work for everyone in the room. Comedy that earns its laughs, sharp writing, perfect timing, and performances that make it look effortless. All from the 2000s, a decade that produced some of the most ambitious and original films in recent memory. The kind of endings that reframe everything that came before, you'll want to rewatch immediately.

An ending only works when everything before it sets it up. Every comedy pick here was chosen for with the family because the final act lands. Specifically from the 2000s - go in without reading anything about them. That's the only way to get the full effect.
