1. Manhattan: A Woody Allen classic all too often overshadowed by Annie Hall. The story is pretty much the same as most of Allen's films. He plays a lusty, bumbling New Yorker seeking love wherever he can find it�a search which lands him with a high schooler and later his best friend's mistress. With Meryl Streep and Diane Keaton.
2. Small Time Crooks: One of the few recent Woody Allen films worth seeing.
The story follows one cookie manufacturer from near failure and foreclosure to fortune and fraud: delightful!
3. Coming to America: Eddie Murphy at his best! Murphy as an African prince arrives in Queens to find a wife and goes undercover as an employee at fast-food restaurant.
4. Trading Places: Eddie Murphy was so funny once, what happened? Oh, right. Enter: Norbit. Here, Dan Aykroyd and Murphy team up to get back at Aykroyd's boss and stick it to The Man.
5. Blues Brothers: Another fine moment for Dan Aykroyd. Aykroyd and Jon Belushi, in this musical-comedy quest, come together as Midwestern crooks and reunite their blues band in order to raise the money to save the orphanage where they grew up.
6. Raising Arizona: An earlier Coen Brothers classic. Nicolas Cage and Holly Hunter steal a baby. Enough said.
7. Father of the Bride: Steve Martin charmingly grapples with the parental and financial anxieties of seeing his first-born daughter married. With Martin Short as a ambiguously European wedding planner.
8. The Mask: A Jim Carrey and Cameron Diaz tour de force in which Carrey finds a mysterious mask that transforms him from a lonely goof to a smoking, green-faced stud. And Cameron Diaz looks really hot.
9. Breaking Away: A young and muscular Dennis Quaid fights to win a cycling competition and break free from his small-town digs.
10. The Sting: An indispensable Paul Newman and Robert Redford comedy and crime thriller. Set in the 1930s, Newman and Redford play charming crooks who rustle together a masterful get-rich quick scheme.
