Movie is so awesome idk where to start. So many little things that make it great. The characters themselves are just plain funny.

Wedding Crashers.

That was a legitimately great era for comedy movies.

I’m not a big Jason Bateman fan but he’s funny as shite in this.

Without a doubt. The 90's were fantastic but the 2000's took it another level.

I mean, it's a movie about Dodgeball. One of my all-time favorites and a perfect Sunday afternoon, chill on the couch, in and out of naps flick.

I know most people don't like Stiller, but damn he knew how to build a cast around him.


He had about a 5-year stretch from 2001 to 2005 where he struck gold. I'm not saying all of his movies in this stretch were great, but they all had very funny, quotable lines and each had very funny and memorable scenes. Then, a few years later came Tropic Thunder, which was hilarious as well.

Edit: But, my favorite movie of his is There's Something About Mary.

Can't have a list of Stiller movies without There's Something About Mary


Very true. I was sticking with the 2000's era when Ferrell and Stiller both had long runs.

Or Meet the Parents.

The scene where he is praying is gold.

I can't hear someone talk about taking the bull by the horns without thinking:

"Yeh, that's me taking the bull by the horns, it's how I like to run my business. It's a metaphor. But that actually happened though."

I'm curious whether people enjoy Stiller movies more than Will Ferrell --


Stiller's movies have aged much better IMO. I grew tired of Ferrell by the time Talladega Nights came out.

Talladega Nights is Ferrell's best movie. He's been hit or miss to me. But Talladega is a classic.

I don't find Stiller very funny. But there's no doubt he is a good judge of cast and material.

I didnt see this till I was an adult. My wife reccommended it because she knew I liked Stiller movies. I thought I wasnt going to care for it due to not being the target audience of the movie. Absolutely loved it.
