A buddy movie is a film genre built around two mismatched or complementary characters who are forced together and have to learn to work as a team, usually while bickering their way through an adventure. Think 48 Hours, Lethal Weapon, Rush Hour, or Planes Trains and Automobiles. The formula is endlessly flexible — buddy cop, buddy road trip, buddy heist — and the dynamic between the leads is always the real point. The genre practically runs on chemistry, banter, and the eventual bromantic epiphany.
