I found "The Gods Must be Crazy" to be very refreshing and very funny.
The opening sequence, where a sociological comparison is made between the
bushmen of africa and modern civilization, is particularly clever.  The
plot is rather neatly braided from three events coming together, and the 
editing room effects lend a nice touch.

p.s. This is also perhaps the only film I've ever seen where slapstick
is blended with FAL assault rifles and UZIs.
