My Favorite R-Rated Comedies


You have two different types of comedies, and it will sound so general: PG-13-rated and R-rated comedies. Sometimes, you want to have some taste and class in some comedies. But, also, sometimes, you want to mix it up and watch something different: so why not an R-rated raunchiest with some crass humor and profanity? I have to admit that I still look for some freshness and banter between the main stars to drive that R-rated comedy forward because profanity itself does not make the whole movie funnier. It makes the movie tiring such as Sausage Party, a marginally good movie that was a bit disappointing.

However, I have not gotten through a list of my favorite R-rated comedies and I have to admit, nowadays, a good R-rated comedy is hard to come by. So, here are my favorites:


Caddyshack


Coming to America

National Lampoon's Vacation

Trading Places

Planes, Trains and Automobiles

The 40-Year-Old Virgin

Office Space

This is the End

The Big Lebowski

The Hangover

A Fish Called Wanda

Bridesmaids

21 Jump Street/22 Jump Street

Wedding Crashers

Tropic Thunder

Superbad

This is Spinal Tap

Animal House

Old School

Horrible Bosses

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007), PG-13, ★★1/2

We're about halfway through the Harry Potter franchise and this is the turning point in which I found the material to be darker and more mature when the storyline surrounding Lord Voldemort grows. And, also we see another new and fresh direction as David Yates comes into the spotlight to finish off the franchise with the last four movies. I remember watching the trailer in the theaters and I was excited for this movie as it was mostly action-packed. The bottom line is despite the camaraderie between the young Hogwarts characters and a real-good action sequence in the climax, it is a choppily edited and more grounded movie that does not provoke much magic or memorable scenery. Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) is enduring a hot summer and Dudley (Harry Melling) provokes him by making fun of the fact that Harry is haunted by Cedric's death from The Goblet of Fire and also his mom's death. As a storm approaches, demeanors come into the tunnel sucking Dudley's so...

Non-Stop (2014), PG-13, 3 stars

The passengers think Bill Marks (Liam Neeson) is a terrorist. Airports and airplanes. The lines. The crowds. The delays. Everything that Bill Marks (Liam Neeson) hates about flying. When it comes to airports, I have to go through the procedure with taking your carry-on baggage and luggage on the flight. Then, I go through security which I have to admit is not as bad, just follow the rules and guidelines. After security, what do you do? If you are two or three hours early, you have time to kill: Have something to eat, watch something on your IPad, shop, etc. As you board and get on the plane, anything can happen from turbulence to maybe something unexpected like this movie's situation. This movie is silly and preposterous, but it is a fun movie to watch. The movie opens with Bill Marks tired drinking alcohol and arguing with a supervisor on his cellphone glancing at a photo of his daughter. But, he is trying to get his act together by lighting a cigarette while he is being pus...
