Deer Hunter.
worst
film

Stand by me.
Toy story
Most Disney Pixar films to be honest.
Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure
or
Wayne's World
Lethal Weapon 3.
The bomb on the bog scene. Deeply moving analysis of the issues in male friendship.
Contentious, maybe, but: 'Let the Right One In'
50/50. Sad, funny, awkard
Restless natives.
Brokeback Mountain
worst

WRONG!
The Goonies, of course.

The Deer Hunter is one of my favourite films, but it does have a marmite effect on people. Some people even think you're joking when you say it's a fave. "What that reeeeaaally loooooong [i]boring[/i] film where nothing happens for three hours until the decent Russian Roullette scene?"
See also: 2001 A Space Odyssey.
Forrest Gump and Bubba Shrimp?
Stand by me. Thread over.
Stand by me. Thread over.
Appropriately for today, I guess
The Big Lebowski. The dynamic between Dude, Walter and Donny is perfect.
withnail and I
Good Will Hunting.
Is 'Withnail...' not more about dysfunctional companionship than friendship? Withnail is a terrible friend: totally self-absorbed and, towards Marwood, unsympathetic, highly exploitative and deeply cynical.
La Haine

I think you missed the subtle nuances 🙂
Oh, love La Haine.
Ever seen Mesrine? Bonkers!
I'd go along with "Stand By Me".
Trainspotting
Unforgiven.
You shoot all of them dead ...
😛
Clerks and Clerks 2...for Randall and Dante, but mostly Jay and Silent Bob
Priscilla Queen of the Desert
Beaten to it. 50/50. Simply brilliant

The bomb in the toilet was Lethal Weapon 2.
Brokeback Mountain?
A boy and his dog.

Fair comments but all the best ones had already been mentioned and Withnail did love him
Kes.
Withnail did love him
Yes, in a co-dependent, desperate, alcoholic sort of way, I suppose that he did. I sometimes think that it's the most perfect film ever made. Story, script, locations/sets, actors, photography, editing and music - all just so brilliantly done.
The Jungle Book
Debbie Does Dallas - everyone was best of pals
Debbie Does Dallas - everyone was best of pals
To quote Ralph Wiggum: "Everyone's hugging"
Ski School. Friendship wins over evil every time. With beer.
And girls.
And chocolate hot tubs...
"Everyone' shugging"
Nearly FIFY
So is it friendship in a intilectual or emotional sense? Ergo 'one shot'?
A Perfect World
Gregorys Girl are good but the best of the lot...
[b]Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid[/b]

Deer Hunter.
Cars.
Runs for cover...
Or The Lord of the Rings
Lord of the rings:
Sam+Frodo = bros
I know it may not sound like it from reading a synopsis, but as a climber who has had close shaves in the mountains with a friend, I would say Touching the Void.
Stir crazy
See no evil hear no evil
Shawshank.
Kevin and perry. 😀
Sid james And Bernard bresslaw in carry on camping.
Any fim with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost in it, regardless of the narrative and the characters they play.
All the Wallace and Gromit films.
I want to say Leon, but something tells me that's just wrong.
+1 for A Boy and His Dog.

Agree
It's really got to be Shaun of the Dead.
Looks after his mate even when he becomes a Zombie.
Midnight Cowboy.
Hoffman at his understated best.
In the Heat of the Night
Birdy.
Hellraiser
Withnail isn't about friendship. The final scene is the saddest film scene ever!
I'd vote Trainspotting or the Big Lebowski, for the dynamic between the main characters.
And though it's not a film, for the same reasons: Generation Kill
I'm going to chuck in...
Planes, Trains and Automobiles!
Up.
Shawshank Redemption
Te first five minutes of Up defines love and commitment, but I'm not sure that the rest of the film defines friendship, even though the two main characters do become friends.
I'm going tot vote for Act of Valour.
The Odd Couple
+1 for Butch Cassidy.
For blokes/lads etc The Odd Couple is the best answer here.
For girls - too many to choose from 😉
Thelma & Louise surely?
the sunshine boys - George burns and walter Matthau
white men can't jump
midnight run....deniro
Bill & Ted.
I'd go for Up.
Point Break is a good cal, too.
Lost in Translation.
Shawshank Redemption (Morgan Freeman) great film
Dumb and Dumber.... a mate that lets you piss down his back.... now thats friendship
The Straight Story.
Debbie does Dallas
The Karate Kid (1984)
Kes .
PrinceJohn - MemberThe Straight Story.
Oh, great call.
Yeah, the Shawshank redemption is a contender, for sure, imo.
[i]I think it's the excitement only a free man can feel, a free man at the start of a long journey whose conclusion is uncertain. I hope I can make it across the border. I hope to see my friend and shake his hand. I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams.

^ Floods of lip-quiver. Thanks for that. I love that film, it's like a fine brie - ripe before it even hit the shelves, predictable yet full-bodied. A comfort food for any occasion. All it took was time and pressure to make me a convert for life.
Now I'm thinking of Cinema Paradiso.
Has to be 'Adam and Paul'
Best of pals
