Best Friends (1982)
1/10
What a Disaster!
15 June 2021
I normally enjoy Norman Jewison films, such as In Country, which was a phenomenal sleeper masterpiece. But this is pure, unadulterated misery.

If you're depressed when you start the movie, you'll likely be ready for a mercy killing before it's over, it's that bad! It never gets better. In fact, I think this film actually manages to get even worse, which is an amazing feat.

Burt Reynolds and Goldie Hawn do the best they can to stay awake reading the trite, painful dialogue. The late, great Audra Lindley looks a bit like Sally Field in her scenes, but even her comic genius can't save this dog.

With Best Friends like these, who needs friends?
