"Goodbye Lenin" was great, yes; it's notably different from any Soviet portrayals of the same time though and, in a way, is more effective. The Germans' perk at being funny is through showing something funny in an otherwise-depressing setting, real 'dark comedy' for all purposes.

Oh, and out of American humor, the whole batch of more adult-oriented comedy cartoons in the last decade is great (I don't need to list them, you know which ones!). I can't stand almost all live-action sitcoms, to be honest, but the animated ones are great.

I don't know if Chinese humor is solely restricted to Jackie Chan-esque stuff - I've seen some movies that were really funny in completely different ways. Even some good romantic comedies. I can't really get at the particul generalizations of the 'Chinese sense of humor', but it can be very funny.

Otherwise, there's a number of Soviet-era comedy movies that I hold dear. They'd probably seem rather cheesy and tame to those outside the culture, but there's really something warm and fuzzy about them, they're comedies with a heart.
