From bickering partners to ride-or-die best mates, cinema has given us some truly iconic male friendships. Which on-screen bromance had you rooting for them harder than your actual mates?
Put the items in your preferred order.

Shaun & Ed β Shaun of the Dead
Simon Pegg and Nick Frost gave us the gold standard of friendship: unconditional loyalty, terrible decision-making, and a Winchester pub as the crisis plan. Truly the most British bromance ever committed to film.

Frodo & Sam β The Lord of the Rings
Samwise Gamgee literally carried Frodo up a volcano. If that's not friendship, nothing is. Their bond remains one of cinema's most quietly devastating partnerships.

Maverick & Goose β Top Gun
Before the sequel made everyone nostalgic all over again, Maverick and Goose were already legendary. Their camaraderie in the cockpit β and on the volleyball court β set an unreachable bar.

Sherlock Holmes & Dr Watson β Guy Ritchie films
Robert Downey Jr and Jude Law brought a wonderfully bickering energy to Baker Street's finest duo. Equal parts exasperation and devotion β basically every British friendship ever.

Woody & Buzz β Toy Story
They started as competitors and ended up inseparable. Woody and Buzz Lightyear proved that the best friendships are forged through jealousy, near-death experiences, and eventually just accepting each other's nonsense.
