For instance, I'm partial to Continental Divide (1981), a rom-com starring John Belushi and Blair Brown.
It got decent reviews and Belushi played it straight.

One, Two, Three
Here’s some suggestions: “Uncle Buck”, “Who’s Harry Crumb?”, “Spaceballs, “The Great Outdoors” and “1941”.
I like a lot of the 80s classics, especially Ghostbusters. And many baseball movies: Mr. Baseball, Mr. 3000, Moneyball, etc.
The wife and I watch Love Actually every Christmas, along with a few other favorite Christmas movies.
I hate to admit it, but there are some silly ones I like as well, like Captain Ron, Big Trouble in Little China, and Hitch.
