Shopaholic35 I thought the first two "Friday" movies were alright and had the occasional funny moment but Friday After Next was definitely the worst out of the bunch. It just wasn't entertaining or funny enough. The Christmas themed movie felt like a cheap excuse for a sequel and felt really out of place.Did anybody else notice that basically the only characters who remain the same throughout the entire series are Craig (Ice Cube) and his dad. Everybody else changes depending on the movie. There's absolutely no consistency and so over the three movies there is no flow. You may as well have created an entirely individual movie each time instead of a continuing series.Overall not impressed or entertained.
Raul Faust Well, when I saw this film yesterday I had no idea it was a continuation of two previous titles, so I may have lost some jokes in here. However, this film is still understandable and interesting for those who also didn't see the previous.Ice Cube's character (Craig) and Day-Day are two funny cousins that live together and need money to pay the rent after a mean Santa Claus steal theirs. So they decide to work as security guards, but they aren't able to help an elderly cross the street, so you can imagine how many troubles they get in. These comedy films with black cast are usually this funny and full of confusions, so I usually enjoy them. Ice Cube and Mike Epps are hilarious guys, specially Epps, so you will have a good time watching this. Of course it's not gonna be a life changing movie, but it entertains and delivers what it promises.
Steve Pulaski Besides the butchered title and the various negative reviews, "Friday After Next" is actually the funniest film in the "Friday" franchise. It's quirkiness, silliness, and very nice setting works with the movie in a good way.Craig Jones (Ice Cube) and his cousin Day-Day (Mike Epps) return, this time living at their own home. After being robbed by a Santa Claus dressed character, who steals all their money. They need to pay their cranky landlady or they will be beat up by the homosexual neighbor.They get job as security guards in a strip mall were Craig's father, Mr. Jones (John Witherspoon) and Day-Day's dad, Uncle Elroy (Don "D.C." Curry) work. Stores like "Holy Moly Donuts", "Bros. BBQ", and "Pimps and Hos" (ran by Kat Williams) make up the strip.The movie isn't bad as people say it is. The deleted ending is very touching, and some of the chase scenes are fun to watch. Some of the scenes were not needed, but you can tell why they kept them. This is definitely the best of the franchise. I just hope that they use a better title for the possible fourth one. At worst it will be "Friday After Next After Next and the First." Or just called it something simple like "Last Friday" or "Saturday" and leave it at that.Starring: Ice Cube, Mike Epps, John Witherspoon, Don "D.C." Curry, and Kat Williams. Directed by Marcus Raboy.
marsher-1 I think this series has run its cause with this film, I loved the first movie, the second movie wasn't great but still fun and the third movie was just pretty lame few chuckles here and there and thats not enough, I was kinda bored throw most of it. Its just that most jokes fall flat there were only about six jokes that made me chuckle as I said but still I say skip it, if you want a good Friday watch the first movie or even rent the second movie this is the lamest and and least funny of the series but still not bad enough to hate just we have seen it done before and better. To be on the positive side, yes as I said I got about six chuckles and Ice Cube was good and the side actors were good too but they needed a better script.
