Berkreviews.com Top Five Movies Dynamic Duos
Because of the recent release of Ant-Man and the Wasp, Jonathan (@berkreviews), Corey (@coreyrstarr), and Michael (@servermonkey) took a look through movie viewing history to find their Top Five Dynamic Duos. The idea was to find movies that feature a pair of heroes/buddies/opposites working together for a common goal. Check out the lists below, as we often speak freely about the movies (though for the two that haven’t had wide releases Jonathan took care not to spoil anything).
Jonathan’s list:
5. Never Goin Back (2018) – Maia Mitchell and Camila Morrone
4. White Man Can’t Jump (1992) – Woody Harrelson and Wesley Snipes
3. Blindspotting (2018)- Daveed Diggs and Rafael Casal
2. Hunt for the Wilder people (2016) – Julian Dennison and Sam Neil
1. Hot Fuzz (2007) – Simon Pegg and Nick Frost
Michael’s list:
5. Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny in The X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008)
4. Natalie Portman and Zach Braff in Garden State (2004)
3. Kurt Russell and Dennis Dun in Big Trouble in Little China (1986)
2. River Phoenix and Wil Wheaton in Stand By Me (1986)
1. Natalie Portman and Jean Reno in Leon: The Professional (1994)
Corey’s list:

Top Five Movies formats
There are two types of Top Five Movie episodes. The traditional format of the show features Jonathan and two guests, usually Corey and Mike, who create their lists for the chosen topic in secret and reveal them on the episode. The other format is an interview style where a guest discusses films in general and ends the episode going over their personal, all-time Top Five.
