The Comedy 25: The Funniest Movies of the Past 25 Years

22. OLD SCHOOL (2003)
The raunchy tale of three grown men regressing to their fraternity days is a well-worn homage to old-school SNL-alum comedies (complete with a Stripes-ish topless K-Y wrestling match and countless Animal House allusions), and cast with actors who rehash their most practiced personas (Vince Vaughn: smugly manipulative; Will Ferrell: earnestly blank-eyed). In theaters, the spotty outrageousness was never quite as funny as you'd hoped, but when seen at home on your couch, its familiarity makes Old School just as funny as it needs to be. — Josh Wolk
