Mel Brook's masterpiece. One word uttered in the entire movie, and still you laugh so hard you can't breath.

Overlooked Mel Brooks movie, give this a shot if you like his comedy, it’s very silly and has a unique gimmick

Not Brook’s best by any means, but far from his worst later in his career. However, one good joke a movie does not make.

Another classic example of Mel Brooks making a solid movie from a premise that made movie studios go “no way will anybody wanna see that!”

The cameos are what make this movie fun to watch. Keep an ear out for the one spoken word.

The Producers
A conniving Broadway producer and his meek accountant plan to profit from charming wealthy old biddies to invest in an overbudget production, and then put on a sure-fire disaster, so nobody will ask for their money back — and what's more disastrous than a tasteless musical celebrating Adolf Hitler.
Dark Star
A group of scientists are sent on a mission to destroy unstable planets. Twenty years into their mission, they have to battle their alien mascot as well as a "sensitive" and intelligent bombing device that starts to question the meaning of its existence.
Stir Crazy
New Yorkers Skip Donahue and Harry Monroe have no jobs and no prospects, so they decide to flee the city and find work elsewhere, landing jobs wearing woodpecker costumes to promote the opening of a bank.

The Odd Couple
In New York, Felix, a neurotic news writer who just broke up with his wife, is urged by his chaotic friend Oscar, a sports journalist, to move in with him, but their lifestyles are as different as night and day are, so Felix's ideas about housekeeping soon begin to irritate Oscar.
