"The In-Laws," with Peter Falk as (perhaps) a CIA agent and Alan Arkin as a dentist and soon-to-be father-in-law of Falk's daughter. An intricate and absurd plot with a surprise ending.
"The Jerk," Steve Martin's great classic. Co-star Bernadette Peters tells Steve she's a cosmetologist, and he asks if she was bothered by the weightlessness.
"Dave," a sweet movie about an ordinary, decent guy who happens to look exactly like the President of the United States. Sigourney Weaver plays a wonderful First Lady.
"Groundhog Day," recommended by others, is a delightful story about getting to live the same day over and over again until Bill Murray gets it right.
"Miss Congeniality" stars Sandra Bullock, who really nailed this one. She's a tom-boy, tough-girl FBI agent who goes undercover as a Miss America contestant. Sounds incredibly stupid, but made me laugh enough to rent it twice.
"Runaway Bride" was another surprise -- who knew Julia Roberts could act (at least before Erin Brockovich was released)? Sweet and funny with Richard Gere.
