Hercules Returns (1993)
The funniest movie I have ever seen.
The first few minutes of this film is the setup--a down-and-out loser opens a old theater that's been closed for a long time. The problem is that the film they've gotten for the theater's big debut--Hercules--is in Italian rather than English. The hero and two friends decide to save the day by lip-synching over the film. There are a few good jokes in the beginning part, but the real magic is in the voice overs they choose to create for the film, from commentaries on Austrlian cuisine to educated conversations during fight scenes and truly "Aussie" deathbed laments. I saw this movie when I was living in Australia and my gut literally hurt from laughing when it was over. It remains the funniest movie I have ever seen. The timing of the voice overs is unbelievable. This is a hard-to-find one for American audiences, but it's worth it.
