Friendship or Fixation? Breaking Down the Awkward Genius of Friendship (2025)
Description
In this episode, we take a deep dive into Friendship (2025) — a dark comedy that hits harder than you'd expect. Tim Robinson plays Craig, a lonely marketing exec, while Paul Rudd steps into the role of his charming, mysterious neighbor Austin. On the surface, it seems like a story about two men bonding in the suburbs, but as we unpack it, there’s a lot more going on.
We explore themes of obsession, social isolation, and how male friendships are portrayed on screen. Why does Craig latch on to Austin so quickly? And what makes their connection so uncomfortable to watch — yet impossible to look away from?
Whether you laughed, cringed, or felt a little seen, this film is a conversation starter. Stream Friendship (2025) now on Afdah and join us for an honest, in-depth discussion.
