6Girls Trip (2017)
This movie drew a lot of comparison to Bridesmaids when it was first released...but I would argue it's even more about friendship, because all four of those women are friends from the start. The Flossy Posse clearly have a history. You care about them! This is a friendship you're rooting for the whole time.

7Steel Magnolias (1989)
Nowadays, "chick flick" just means like... a rom-com? Or worse/more general, just a movie with girls in it? It used to be more specific. Chick flicks used to be melodramatic movies like Steel Magnolias about women going through hard times together. Friendships that survive insurmountable tragedies. Movies that you watch with your BFF and just sob.

10Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)
Many of the many Marvel movies (say that five times fast) feature friendship, but I would argue that only this one is about friendship. Nothing says BFFs like dance-offs, mixtapes, and a talking tree protecting you with a hug.

14Tag (2018)
While it totally doesn't make sense that Jon Hamm, Hannibal Burress, Jake Johnson, Ed Helms, and Jeremy Renner would have been childhood friends—they are 4 to 12 years apart in age—this is a fun movie about an... unusual way that BFFs found to keep in touch over the years. Also, in case you don't remember this from the trailers and the posters, it's based on a true friendship. Wild.

15The Breakfast Club (1985)
While the teens in The Breakfast Club aren't friends at the beginning of the movie, this is the quintessential movie about how cliques and popularity are kind of overrated. Anyone can bond. Sometimes all it takes is being forced to share a Saturday detention.
