10 Best John Candy Movies
The 10 best John Candy movies showcase his immense talent and great sense of humor. When talking about legendary comedians, he’s one of those that we miss the most.
Uncle Buck
This is a classic and a favorite among Candy fans since Uncle Buck is the type of guy you’d love to have in your family. If he cleaned up his act a little, he’s perfectly acceptable.
Planes, Trains, & Automobiles
It was great Watching Steve Martin and John Candy argue in this movie. The whole “Those aren’t pillows!” line is still one of the best.
Cool Runnings
Based on a true story, this movie is fun and energetic, not to mention hilarious. Yes, Jamaica does have a bobsled team.
Armed and Dangerous
It is fun to watch Candy interact with several great actors. Eugene Levy helped make this movie memorable in a big way.
Stripes
It’s true that Bill Murray and Harold Ramis were the main characters in this movie. However, John Candy, as Moose, was still a great addition since he added even more fun.
Summer Rental
Acting as a character who absolutely needs a vacation, Candy puts on a performance that many people can identify with. But the sailing scenes are comedic gold.
Who’s Harry Crumb?
Would you believe that Candy would make a great detective? He is kind of a bumbler in this movie, but he still gets the job done.
The Great Outdoors
John Candy and Dan Aykroyd were a great match. As Chet and Roman, respectively, they created a movie that is still a great addition to the comedy genre today.
Spaceballs
He didn’t get a great name in this movie since Barf doesn’t instill much confidence. But as a Chewbacca stand-in, he was a funny and very useful character.
Splash
He was second fiddle to Tom Hanks in this movie and didn’t have much screen time, but he had enough to make an impression. Plus, he got to be the funny man, which was great.
