Comedies like Men in Black or cartoons like Kung Fu Panda have funny dialogs and usually have a happy ending. The characters may not be perfect , but they try their best to solve their problems. After watching them the problems suddenly seem less serious and I feel much better again. Laughing for two hours is a good way to relax.
