Amy Poehler has spent the past several decades making audiences laugh and cementing her place as a top comedic talent. Long before her 2001 debut on "Saturday Night Live," Poehler found a place in the Chicago comedy scene where she met her best friend and frequent collaborator, Tina Fey (per Vulture). The duo met in 1993 when both joined Improv Olympic (a.k.a. iO) and took classes with famed Chicago improv group, Second City, both of which helped Poehler refine her distinctive comedic voice and launch her career.

In 1996, Poehler moved to New York City and along with Matt Walsh, Matt Besser, and Ian Roberts, co-founded the comedy sketch group, the Upright Citizens Brigade in 1999. In 2001, the actress joined her friend Fey as an "SNL" cast member and marked her television debut on the show. Ever since, through prolific work in television and film, she has successfully navigated the comedic path to lasting stardom.

As with anything, comedy films tend to be hit-or-miss with audiences and critics alike. For every successful comedy Poehler has appeared in, there's a head-scratching flop that failed to land. So, let's take a look at some of Amy Poehler's best and worst films.
