9) The Money Pit (1986)

Tom Hanks plays the role of Walter Fielding, in this hilarious comedy, in which the dream home transforms into a nightmare. It's mainly his chemistry with Shelley Long co-star, whose characters take on increasing levels of absurd challenges. Scenes that show collapsing staircases and exploding bathtubs especially bring out the best physical comedy by Hanks, and these capture his comedic brilliance when starting. Despite decades since its release, the movie is still very relevant and entertaining to understand homeownership issues.
