This is a list of United States comedy films.

It is separated into two categories: short films and feature films. Any film over 40 minutes long is considered to be of feature-length (although today most feature films are much longer, this was not always the case previously).

This is an [Incomplete listsincomplete list], which may never be able to satisfy certain standards for completeness. Revisions and additions are welcome.
