When I first saw Friendship in theaters, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I definitely did not anticipate leaving the theater with a sore stomach from laughing so hard. This film, starring Tim Robinson and Paul Rudd, examines a lonely, disconnected man who believes he’s finally found a male friend group, only to be kicked out and shunned after a hang gone wrong. While the subject matter itself is depressed, Tim Robinson handles it with his classic comedic timing and bizarre reactions, leading to the wildest (and funniest) hour and a half runtime.
Here are the 10 funniest lines from Tim Robinson in A24’s Friendship:
