Top 10 Funniest Actors and Actresses

While Adam Sandler is just one of the better versions of the typical crude and juvenile comics, a character who acts like a jerk to screw with people and gets away with it safe and easy, Jim Carrey never stops finding innovative ways to go above and beyond. He's willing to go over the top and push limits to make the biggest impression he can, and he's not just assuming that more = better; he actually has the timing and the acting skills to fit everything he does into his characters.
Sometimes he's not for everyone, including people who like their comedy typical and easy, and occasionally the chances he takes are bad ones, but where other comedians are at the mercy of a bad script, Jim Carrey makes even his weakest movies more watchable. His energy can be enough to carry the whole show.
Have you ever drank a cup of milk with a hot girl next to you while your friends are in the living room watching dumb and dumber and you hear Jim carreys hilarious lines and you do everything in your power to hold back the milk from spurting out of your mouth because of laughter, all in the hopes you won't embarrass yourself? Well some things are impossible.
Adam Sandler, is very talented, he has a different laid back approach to comedy which I enjoy very much. On the other hand no one can compete with Jim Carrey when it comes to his roles; a complete roller coaster ride. I enjoy both actors very much but, the winner if talking about energetic crazy and funny entertainment is Jim Carrey.
Jim carey is the worlds best and most loveed comediens, he is the funniest man on earth to make every one smile and lough no matter what way they are feeling and disabeled god gave him a rare gift and I hope he continues to make every movies and video and every lough he can, iam gettting married and iam saving as much as I can to get married hopeful nexted year but I would give my last few pence for a jim carey movie he always makes me lough and my fienca and we can forget or troubles while we watch him.

Truly enjoy his movie very funny actor. Big Daddy so funny and music I enjoy. On movie. Yes other enjoy one golf. Was greatest movie. One my favorte actor. Enjoy music on movies sure bring back 1980s songs. Styxs and many other. I give A plus thank you.
When Adam Sandler has the right role and the right movie, it is the funniest thing possible. Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison and Big Daddy are perfect examples of this.
Defiantly one of the funniest actors ever! Especially billy Madison that's one of my favorites. But now he is in some really annoying movies with stupid Disney as.
Adam Sandler is hilarious, but I do believe that he should be here in no. 2, because all his funniest movies were in the 90s, while Jim Carrey has been constistently funny his whole career.

He is a comedy master. Everything he says makes me laugh. His Bush impersonation is spot on and Anchorman, Old School and Talladega Nights are some of the funniest movies ever made in my opinion - with Anchorman at the top. I leave you with this: I wanna be on you.
Will Ferrell is a really good comedy actor because he has been in heaps of movies lots of them are really good funny like blades of glory and step brothers and he's acted with lots of other really good comedy actors like Chris Pratt in the Lego movie and Ben stiller in zoo lander.
Will Farrell has to be the most funniest person alive! He knows what to say and and how to say it at the right times. He has stared in many amazing movies like elf, Talladega Nights and anchorman but for me nothing compares to him in Step Brothers.
Will Farrell should be #1 on this list. Really, Adam Sandler got more votes than he did? Watch Will Ferrell in any interview, he is just as hilarious without a script, and outstanding at improvisational comedy.

I can't believe no one else has commented on Bill Murray yet. The GOAT gotta love the man just check the resume: Ghostbusters, Stripes, Caddyshack, Groundhog's Day, Scrooged... The list goes on and on. The biggest and funniest smart-ass in the history of man kind. Everything this man says makes you feel like you're in on an inside joke you have to love this man.
Check me if I'm wrong Sandy, but if I kill all the golfers there gonna lock me up and throw away the key.
Best
And funniest jim carrey is funny but bill Murray super funny
I didn't know he is a comedian. I just like Ghostbusters lol.

Whatch: coming to america, norbit, shrek "donkey", Dr Dolittle, The Nutty Professor, Imagine That and others please whatch those and you will know eddie murphy.
He is my favorite comedian every time he's on screen I laugh my ass off
Eddie Murphy is comical and his laugh makes me want to laugh.
He is great at serious and funny and I love that he's great!

Steve Carell is the funniest actor in my opinion. His role in the office is the best. He has a really awkward sense of humor and I don't know what it is he is just extremely funny.
Best movies:
Dan in real life
Crazy, stupid love
And of course his role of Michael Scott in the office!
He pulls off this funny yet lovable awkwardness time and time again, and even without this awkward persona, seems generally funny and positive to begin with. Hard to hate. He's done a great job in The Anchorman
I love his role in the office, he is one of my favorite actors, I mean like, who hates this guy, his movies are super halarius.
The office always makes me feel better and it wouldn't be the same without Steve Carell.

He's awesome ha ha I remember the scene from Anchorman where he's a Spanish anchorman!
Go ben your a beast he is hilarious.
Hilarious I love all of his movies
Loved him in "Along came Polly".

Any movie with Zach Galifinakis is incredibly funny. I don't know how he does it, he's just so talented.
Hangover 1, Hangover 2, Due Date and The Campaign make's him unbeatable
He is so funny when he stars in hangover!
He is hero of my life.
I love you. Zach.

Jack black in my opinion is one of the funniest actors right below Jim Carey he always makes me laugh for an example you should whatch nacho librara it's outstanding or Kung fu panda he's also amazing outside of his movies!
Why is JB (flick off bieber) right in 28? He's starred in many funny movies like school of rock and Kung fu panda. Not to mention the D's box office debut!
One of the top, he gots some great movies like kong fu panda, shallow hal, and shcool are all great and that's just a few so make sure you vote for him too.
Jack Black gets my vote for not only being a funny actor but for also being in the funniest BAND ever, Tenacious D!

How is he not number 1?! Just watching him stand there makes me laugh! I'm not saying he deserves top 5 I'm saying number 1!
Best second comedian ever
But Keegan-Michael Key is definitely the funniest but how is Keegan not on the list?
Same role most of the time but he is still really funny
I want to smoke pot with this dude!

I'm with the person who accurately stated that Robin Williams should unequivocally be number one! Number 1!
One of the funniest actors to ever appear on screen. R.I.P Robin Williams, we love you!
The top of every list involving comedians and brilliance.
Come on. Williams is the prince of laughs

This is the man who actually harassed people in his movies and shows and got away with it with the help of his ability to get inside a character. And this is a guy you can call "hilarious as hell". He always takes comedy to an extreme level in his performance.
Waiting for his next appearance on the screen.
What the hell this guy is incredible! My personal favourite comedian is not on that list, it's a beverage and it's carrot juice.
How can you not put Borat and The Dictator on top 10?
This guy's only on #11? Disappointed to be honest.

She plays as lola bunny in looney tunes show!
Bells-kevin

I love comedy and Tina Fey is an amazing comedian and she proved that women can make good comedy too.
PS. I also ADORE Zach Galifianakis and Jim Parsons!
Tina is defiantly is one of my favorite comedy actresses
Should be at least top 5

He is truly one of the best his work in the pink panther series really awesome. I loved the role he played in DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS. His role in the movie and even the story of the movie are awesome.
Not funniest but I like him much more than the rest
My dad met Steve Martin doing father the bride2
Why does everyone hate the pink panther?

Martin Short at 45 is a sick joke. He's the funniest guy in the entire world and I adore the living heck out of him!
His Ed Grimley character made me laugh so hard the first time I saw him, I fell off the couch.

Don't laugh to every thing u say let audience have their reason to laugh
U r truly artist
He is very talented in many fields of comedy, voicing and a lot more, his got it
The way his acting is and his impressions especially on family guy
Funny guy he made family guy and ted

In most of my favorite films, The Wolf of Wall Street confirmed him being my favorite actor, so funny!
He had me doubled over for most of 21 jump street.. The guy is a comedic genius
21 Jump Street, 22 Jump Street & Superbad are some of the most important movies!
I don't like he performance in this is end


American Pie was by far the funniest movie I've ever watched! and all because of him!
Just talk laugh fight dance fight...funny anyway

I thank that he the best cause he funny just like jim carry I wish that he could make a movie with both of them in it!
He and Jim Carrey are my favourite actors up to date. My favourite movie of his is National Security!
He's hilarious I love all his movies, especially blue streak
If it was for me, he would have been in the 1st place...

Good and very very good at acting very funny and active as a actor which is very funny and good at what he does.
Rowan Atinson deserves to be in number 3 or 4
I really liked mr bean and some of his other films
This guy is funny, he can make everyone laugh, he should be in the top 10
Are you kidding me? #25?
This guy is brilliant! Superb! Number 1.

Paul Rudd is one of the funniest actors! Aside from
Being so charming he, can take any part and just make it funny without even really trying! I love him in my idiot brother and knocked up!
There is no words for how amazing of an actor he is just WONDERFUL
Paul Rudd is completely underrated. He is a genius! So funny.
Besides his hotta looks, this guy can be the most funniest guy on the planet!

The Naked Gun Made me laugh like no other movie has. I'm 23, speaking for my generation
On his gravestone it says " Let it Riiiiiiiiiiip". One of the funniest people ever he deseves to be higher
Airplane and naked gun he was great because he could say something funny but do it in a serious voice
RIP Leslie Nielsen... you are a LEGEND who will be forever missed. EVERY movies of nielsen is awesome awesome awesome awesome awesome... LOVE you MOST

He is one of the best performers on Saturday Night Live. His impressions are uncanny and he knows how to react off of others to get a laugh. He's also been in some hilarious movies (Superbad, Hot Rod, Forgetting Sarah Marshall). Bill Hader is talented!
I have no doubt he is the funniest guy on earth. If you watch his conan interviews youll know also a very nice and smart guy. He was litterly discoverd by Megan Mullally. And Bill Murary said he's the guy who did the best job anyone ever did on snl.
Funniest on this list...should be in top ten
Hr is amazing in Paul and Superbad
And my favorite new male castmember og snl
