Grumpy Old Men is an example of a great buddy comedy. Of course, the buddies in question are OLD MEN.
We meet John and Max - neighbors and enemies for years. They live right next door to each other and compete at everything. John's more careful and concerned - Max lives right out in the open and doesn't seem to care what anyone things. The two share a passion for trying to insult the other, but you can tell that there's a deep friendship undercurrent there too.
John's daughter is newly separated from her husband and Max's son is a political candidate. John tries to push them together and Max works on tearing them apart.
Enter Ariel - a red headed siren who moves in across the street and takes advantage of John one night - and eventually makes an honest man of him.
