5 Naked Gun (1988)

7. Asterix and Obelix vs. Caesar (1999)

A good old immortal story straight from France tells of an independent Gallic village that refuses to submit to the Roman Republic. And no wonder, because it is guarded by the dexterous Asterix (Christian Clavier) and the strong Obelix (Gerard Depardieu).

9. Taming the Shrew (1980)
