Adult Best Friends

Adult Best Friends tackles Katie and Delaney’s growing pains with a lot of laughs.

As a low-stakes character comedy, this movie has what’s needed to make for a friendly watch.

Real-life adult best friends Delaney Buffett and Katie Corwin probably had a great time co-writing and co-starring in this annoying dramedy, but that enjoyment doesn't extend to the audience.

Adult Best Friends is an encouragement to grow, to change, and to push the ones you love to do the same.

This film makes full use of typical comedy conventions and mixes in just enough creative flavor to make it feel fresh and keep it funny. Corwin and Buffett truly are a dynamic duo.

Adult Best Friends‘ strength comes from the dynamic duo of Delaney Buffett and Katie Corwin. Their screenplay finds a perfect balance between emotionally resonant moments and comedic elements, contributing to the film’s overall success.

The ending makes up for a lackluster middle, which drags on as Kate and Delaney meet a group of guys in the midst of their friend’s bachelor party.

Populated by wonderful neurotics of all kinds, who are all scarily recognizable and relatable, just as the movie's general gist is. As a side note: someone should seriously consider a spin-off with Quinto's character, the lover of second-hand therapy.

Mostly comic film about long-time girl friends, like the writers, drifting apart due to different life goals. I did expect a struggle that would lead to more of a self-realization crisis. But the emphasis safely stays on friendship evolution.

Codependence has found its way to the big screen before, but director, writer, and actress Delaney Buffett makes it fresh. The resulting comedy delivers enough one-liners and situations to keep the audience engaged, even if the plot feels recycled.
