Genre: COMEDY

Genre: is a genre of film in which the main emphasis is on humor. (Wikipedia)

Like: Good for a laugh and entertainment.

Dislike: In a movie I believe you need to achieve three key things: great storytelling, aesthetically pleasing art, and entertaining. With most Comedies only the entertiament category is fulfilled.
