Movies without mid-way "conflict" between the main characters?

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

Hey, Im looking for movies that avoid the common conflict about halfway throughout the runtime where the main characters inevidebly get in a heated argument, yell mean things at each other, then break up- often following a sad montage where our protagonist(s) slowly pick themselves up again and reconcile just in time for the climax. Prime example of this: How To Train Your Dragon, when Hiccups father disowns him.

It gets taxing, especially upon rewatch, so if anyone has recommendations for more smooth-sailing movies, I appreciate it!

DISCLAIMER: Do not mistake me for wanting to avoid any resemblance of real plot or a central conflict a la The Big Lebowski. Just wishing to avoid that little speed bump (generally) midway through the heros journey where our heroes end up in a slump at their lowest point, no sign of hope yadayada.

Movies I believe avoided this, off my memory (could be wrong): Speed, Demolition Man, Dazed and Confused
