Comedy is a reliable film category for audiences who want a feel-good experience. This can come from the story and sometimes it can come from the characters. Other times, it can come from the overall uplifting vibe of the movie. Either way, feel-good comedies should balance the laughs and the positivity.

For moviegoers who fall in the INFJ (Introverted, Intuitive, Feeling, and Judging) personality of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, they will likely connect to comedies with sympathetic characters and high morale, in spite of the humor. Here are 5 comedies that INFJs will truly love and 5 they might want to skip.

Love: Lars and the Real Girl

One of Ryan Gosling’s most underrated films, Lars and the Real Girl centers on a socially inept man who falls for a sex doll he ordered off the internet, named Bianca. While everyone around him finds the man delusional for developing a romantic relationship with a doll, they start to understand what led him to this.

Rather than settle on the easy route of poking fun of its bizarre premise, the film finds the heart to empathize with Lars and go through the motions to assist him, essentially. In the end, this is a feel-good tale about accepting one's eccentricities.

Hate: Clueless

Clueless is far from the most harmful depiction of high school. But taking inspiration from Jane Austen’s Emma and turning it into a popular girl’s quest to reclaim fame and trustworthiness may be hard to get for some INFJs. Cher Horowitz (Alicia Silverstone) models herself as a matchmaker who wants to give back to the community, but all it does is expose her vanity and desperation to stay relevant (despite her wealth).

The movie is not at all disposable for everyone, as it is self-aware of its clichés. But INFJs will have to endure its "first-world problem" routine and Cher’s finicky attitude.

Love: In Bruges

Black comedies can be preferable to INFJs, even though their humor is dark. Take Martin McDonagh’s hidden gem, In Bruges. This crime comedy focuses on two hitmen (Colin Ferrell and Brendan Gleeson) hiding in Bruges, under the orders of their boss (Ralph Fiennes). Their stay was anything but tranquil, as the three clash in their ideologies as to what is the absolute code of morale for a hitman.

Like many of McDonagh’s films, his characters do not have many likable aspects, but they still somehow elicit empathy. This smart script is something that INFJs may enjoy.

Hate: The Hangover

The Hangover trilogy can be a hard watch for those not used to frat-boy humor and crass jokes. Even if the original film stacked up to be the only good entry, it still can tough for an INFJ to get through. Here is the basic template of the films: guys did something irresponsibly, guys try to retrace their steps to fix their mistakes, and guys finally get everything they need without too many consequences.

These characters are also unlikable. Bradley Cooper’s Phil is an arrogant slacker, Ed Helms’ Stu is a neurotic grumbler, and Zach Galifianakis’ Alan is an ignorant oaf. So, it is hard to sympathize with any of them.

Love: The Truman Show

Truman Burbank is the wary hit star of a TV show in a simulated environment. While he is living a scripted, everyman life, he starts to see the cracks and a way to a better reality. As Burbank, Jim Carrey delivers a lovable performance with restraint in his comedy but charm in his personality. And his motivation to be truly kind to others is something INFJs can take from.

While there are light laughs to be had, this Peter Weir-directed film throws in some deep social commentary about our attraction to celebrity culture and reality television, as well as existentialism. This is truly a thought-provoking treat.

Hate: Death To Smoochy

Death to Smoochy is an obvious poke at Barney the Dinosaur and anti-Barney humor, under the pretense of a Coen Brothers-like dark comedy. Obviously, this movie is too mean-spirited for INFJs to take on. The story basically centers on a sneaky children’s entertainer (Robin Williams), who gets upstaged by a better entertainer in the form of Sheldon Mopes aka Smoochy the Rhino (Edward Norton). However, Mopes discovers a dark behind-the-scenes world.

Seeing a seedier world within the children’s entertainment genre could be disorienting for INFJs. And almost everyone in the film is unlikable. These aspects, plus the mean-spirited gangster elements, do not gel well.

Love: Amélie

Amélie is a pleasant treat for INFJs who can easily relate to the titular character for her motivation and redemptive arc. Amélie Poulain (Audrey Tautou) sees the world through rose-colored glasses and is driven to bring kindness to other people, regardless of their values. All the while, she still maintains her active imagination, mischievous humor, sense of adventure, and struggle in her isolation.

Just the whimsical Parisian atmosphere of Amélie is a visual treat for INFJs. From Amélie’s childhood home to the Café des 2 Moulins, every setting features a romantic atmosphere.

Hate: Bio-Dome

There came a time in the 1990s when Pauly Shore and Stephen Baldwin were a thing. This film combines their best strengths as comedians: low brow humor. The two star as best friend slackers who mistakenly stumble into a controlled, enclosed ecological system called a “bio-dome”. Hilarity and hijinks ensue, at the expense of the scientists’ efforts.

Best friends Bud and Doyle are hugely unlikeable and irritatingly obnoxious, as their antics grow tired and dumber. And somehow, they never face any consequences for their actions. There is nothing of value here for INFJs, except being a cautionary tale for recklessness.

Love: Lost In Translation

Lost in Translation's Bill Murray is most recently known for his foray into dramatic roles. As seasoned actor Bob Harris, he faces the glorious task of making a middle-aged man’s journey to redemption truly romantic. Bob found this romance in young college graduate Charlotte (Scarlett Johansson). And while their fateful encounter did not end with any hint of true romance, they learned, understood, and cared for each other.

Both Murray and Johansson work brilliantly with each other as two souls in search of affection, recognition, and love in a foreign country. And all the while, writer-director Sofia Coppola infuses thought-provoking allusions to cross-cultural differences, ennui, and empathy. For these reasons, Lost in Translation is the best comedy/romance for INFJ moviegoers.

Hate: Jack & Jill

Adam Sandler Jack and Jill

On the other hand, there is Adam Sandler. While the Sandman is taking more serious roles nowadays, his production arm, Happy Madison, is still active in churning out disposable comedies. The most despicable in his catalog has to be the notorious 2011 comedy Jack & Jill. While it is marketed as a family film, it is undoubtedly crass and mean-spirited (which also pretty much sums up the leads).

Sandler plays both Jack and Jill, identical twins who have to resolve their differences in time for the holidays. Both characters are awfully unsympathetic. Jack is conceited and ignorant, while Jill is annoying and unstable. INFJs better avoid this one.
