I’m looking for easy but engaging and NOT tacky. Will be watching on my tablet so nothing that will get lost on it.

Any ideas?

    Just to add a couple more if people like the first couple suggestions

    Yojimbo is my favorite Akira Kurosawa movie, and works well as a double feature with the follow up Sanjuro. Both were also big influences on western makers like Sergio Leone like a fistful of dollars and for a few dollars more that led to the good the bad and the ugly epic.

    Hudsucker Proxy is a classic Coen brothers movie early in a long line of really good movies & some others that have some lighter tones are leaving Arizona, the big Lebowski, baton fink, & o brother where art thou. Similar older comedy I’d check out some Marx brothers and they have done a bunch of work with Sam Raimi (spiderman 1-3, evil dead, drag me to hell)

    And one that combines both suggestions pretty well I think is the latest True Grit remake
