buddy movie

Two-friend adventure film

A buddy movie is a film centered on the relationship between two main characters—usually men—who are thrown together by circumstance and must cooperate despite clashing personalities.

The genre thrives on banter, mutual antagonism that evolves into friendship, and shared adventure: Lethal Weapon is the quintessential buddy movie.
