Our Top Picks: What Scenes Made Us Laugh in 2025?
This year has offered a diverse buffet of humor. Here are some of the standout funny movies and their most memorable laugh moments:
1. “The Studio” (Apple TV+): The Corporate Chaos Unraveled Seth Rogen as harried Hollywood studio head Matt Remick facing Bryan Cranston's bizarre, demanding boss is a goldmine. The entire series is a masterclass in relentless, high-stress comedy, but one scene particularly stands out: Cranston's character demanding a “Kool-Aid corporate partnership turned into a Barbie-alike blockbuster” with the reasoning, “If Warner Bros. can make a billion dollars off the plastic tits of a pussyless doll, we can make two billion.”
This razor-sharp satire of modern Hollywood's obsession with IP and corporate synergy is not just funny; it's a brilliantly observed, stress-inducing laugh moment that leaves you both amused and slightly horrified. It’s definitely prime material for YouTube clips to dissect. Source: Time Out – Best Comedy Movies Of 2025 (So Far)
2. “Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy” (Peacock): Bridget's Online Dating Debacles Renée Zellweger's return as Bridget Jones, navigating life as a single mother in the age of online dating, delivered exactly the kind of relatable, self-deprecating comedy we've come to love. After the tragic loss of Mark Darcy, Bridget’s attempts to get “back out there” lead to a series of humiliating sexting disasters and classic Bridget pratfalls.
While specific scenes will inevitably become YouTube clips, any sequence involving her awkward foray into modern dating apps, particularly her interactions with younger men, offers a treasure trove of genuinely hilarious and heartwarming blunders. Hugh Grant's hilariously wolfish return as Daniel Cleaver also provides consistent laugh moments. Source: Marie Claire – The Best Comedy Movies to Look Forward to in 2025
3. “The Ballad of Wallis Island” (Independent/Streaming): The Awkward Charisma of Tim Key This charming British comedy might not be “gut-busting” in the traditional sense, but it’s replete with subtle, witty humor and awkward charisma. Starring Tim Key and Tom Basden, the film follows an unlikely friendship. Key's character, with his unique blend of levity and awkwardness, creates numerous delightful laugh moments through his dry humor and understated reactions.
Critics have hailed it as a “must-watch 2025 comedy,” particularly for its ability to combine sentimentality with genuine laughs. It's a fantastic example of a spring comedy that audiences are raving about. Source: CBR – This 2025 Comedy Movie With a 97% on Rotten Tomatoes Deserves Way More Attention
4. “Black Bag” (Peacock): The Unforgettable Dinner Scenes While not a pure comedy, this film has been repeatedly praised by viewers for its darkly comedic elements, specifically its “dinner scenes.” Reddit discussions highlight both the “opening dinner party scene” and the “ending dinner party scene” as moments that “f***ing RIIIIPPPPPPPSSSSSS” with laughter. The unexpected humor amidst the tension creates unique laugh moments that stick with viewers and are already being rewatched and discussed online, perfect for a comedy compilation of genre-bending humor.

5. “Freakier Friday” (Disney): Double the Body Swap, Double the Fun The highly anticipated sequel to the beloved Freaky Friday brought back Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan for more body-swapping chaos, but with a twist: two pairs of body-swapped characters! This amplifies the comedic potential as Anna (Lohan) and Tess (Lee Curtis) swap bodies, and their daughters, Harper and Lily, also swap. This setup leads to layers of generational and situational comedy, as adults act like teens and vice versa, creating a continuous stream of laugh moments perfect for family audiences. The nostalgic factor combined with fresh comedic scenarios makes it a clear winner for spring comedy. Source: Cineworld – 25 films to look forward to in 2025
