Open Question: What's the best overlooked comedy of the 2020s?

Earlier this week, I surveyed the state of 2025 comedy movies on streaming, which is where most comedy movies tend to end up these days. As an aside, I threw out a handful of 2020s comedies I thought didn't really get a fair shake in the 2020s, thanks to a combination of the Covid-19 lockdown and the already in-progress trend of studios choosing not to release comedies that predated the pandemic. There have been some good ones. I'll throw out one: Confess, Fletch, a Greg Mottola-directed adaptation of Gregory Mcdonald's second Fletch novel starring Jon Hamm. It's really good! What is else really good we might have missed?
