Part of the current wave of titles people are actually watching, Lost & Found earns its spot. Lost & Found does what great comedies rarely manage — it is actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. In order to impress his beautiful French neighbor, Dylan Ramsey dognaps her pet pooch so he can return him and become a hero. David Spade and Sophie Marceau lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was released in 1999. The real test of any comedy is whether it is still funny once you know all the jokes, and Lost & Found holds up on rewatch in a way that separates it from one-off curiosities. It knows exactly what it is, and does not try to be anything else.

Comedy fans looking for a reliably funny watch will find it in Lost & Found. If you have run out of similar titles to watch, this is a strong next pick. Best experienced as a single, sustained watch from start to finish. David Spade sets the tone, but the supporting cast is where a lot of the best moments come from. A reliable pick for any night you want quality comedy without the homework.
