Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.
PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
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.
t-wilson2008 This film is very hilarious aired around Christmas, 2002. This was the third Friday spun from parts one and two. It showed the up and downs of another Friday in the low class parts of town on Christmas. Regardless of the trials they went through that day they made it out of it with a good Christmas.The main characters are Mike Epps and Ice Cube. Mike Epps is the comic character of the film that keep you guessing what he would do next, and Ice Cube is the serious cousins that keeps it altogether(DaDa and Craig. The first scene of the movie starts with them getting robed by a person dressed in a Santa Claus suit, caught by Craig. "Man what you doing in my house, making a god**** sandwich" Craig fighting for his things and DaDa in the bed dreaming about things he wants for Christmas. When the fight is over the robber still gets away with all there things and they are left with no Christmas present and no rent money. When the cops are called to the scene they show up very rude and made it a point to say "Santa Claus strikes again I need to go home and lock my stuff up". The landlord always on there backs tells them they need to pay there rent by the end of the day or she's going to send her career prison son up to get it.DaDa and Craig start there new job as security on the same day. DaDa decides to go to work and become the employee of the month the first day. Getting into everything as the day goes on, runs into a group of Lady's singing Christmas songs on the corner decides to say " You'll hoe's need to get up off this corner using God as a crouch" the Lady's respond " I ain't no killer but don't push me".As the day goes on DaDa kept running into trouble finally mid-day the older lady grandson returns for retaliation on Craig and DaDa..Now there on the clock running from gangsters that wants to harm them. Craig decides the job is not that important and throws away there whistle and uniform shirts. The gangsters run into there manager and beats him up. Craig and DaDa sits in his fathers Bar-be-cue restaurant and acts if they were eating lunch the whole time, when the manager come in he fires them for not being around while he's getting beaten.Finally the story ends with them having a fun raiser party for there rent. An altercation breaks out during the party, while Craig goes to break it up spots the robber and follows him where he finally catches him and gets all his things back and more......Very, Very funny movie
ExplorerDS6789 Twas the day before Christmas, and all through the hood, everything was quiet, and this was not good; Craig Jones and his cousin Day Day have finally moved out of their parents' houses and into their own crib at the Shady Palms Apartment complex off Crenshaw. Friday 3:37 AM, Christmas Eve, a low-down robber dressed as Santa Claus broke into Craig and Day Day's apartment and began stealing their Christmas presents, their stereo, and just as he was making himself a sandwich, Craig discovered him and jumped him. They get into a scuffle. But the Santa had the advantage. He beat Craig with the Christmas tree and got away. At dawn, bumbling police officers B. Dix and A. Hole, arrive and when they heard these boys were robbed by Santa Claus, they were skeptical. As soon as the cops left, Craig and Day Day's nasty landlady, Miss Pearly, arrived and demanded the rent. Unfortunately the rent money was in the stereo that got ripped off. They weren't afraid of her, but they were absolutely terrified of her son Damon. He made Deebo look like a pussycat. Damon had just spent 12 years in the pen and now he was out, he developed a craving for companionship. Prison-style companionship. He also told Craig and Day Day that if they didn't have the rent money by nightfall, he was going to really have his way with them.After that, Craig and Day Day head for work. That's right, the impossible has happened. They finally have jobs. They work as security guards at the outlet mall where their fathers have gone into business. Willie Jones is no longer a dogcatcher and together with his brother Elroy have opened a place called Brothers Barbecue: Taste So Good, Make You Wanna Slap Your Mama; The boys were employed by a man named Moly who ran the entire outlet mall and was the proprietor of fly-infested Holy Moly Donuts; Craig and Day Day spent most of the morning arguing in their security booth. Then, Day Day accosted and cursed at some old ladies for singing Christmas carols, and did the same thing to some kids in front of the toy store. But then, outside of the Pimps & Hos clothing store, Craig saw a very pretty girl named Donna. He attempted to hit on her, but unfortunately Day Day had the same idea, so it didn't go too smoothly; Day Day and Craig go out back on their break and have a joint. Elroy joins them, just then they're held at gun point by the Santa Claus robber! He steals Elroy's Rolex and makes a clean get away. Worse yet, a street gang heard what Craig and Day Day did to the carolers, and they did not look friendly. Craig and Day Day run like the wind as the gangsters give chase. Fortunately our heroes hide on the roof of Pimps & Hos, while the gangsters met up with Moly. They give him a message for Craig and Day Day: they beat him up. After that, Day Day and Craig decide to quit, and soon after, Moly fires them; Meanwhile, Miss Pearly decided to snoop around the Jones' apartment. Luckily Day Day's pit bull Cheeco caught her in the end. Literally.Craig and Day Day's Christmas party would still be held that night, but how would they raise their rent money? Craig decided to charge his guests and take up a collection. Willie and Elroy were there, Donna came too, along with Money Mike, local pimp and owner of Pimps & Hos. Day Day's old boss Pinky came and brought some very sexy girls. Damon was there too, and he began to take a liking to Money Mike. He followed him into the john. Luckily Mike managed to find Damon's weakness by applying a pair of pliers to his testicles. He takes Damon outside. Craig and Day Day follow. But unfortunately when Mike attempted to get Damon into his car, Donna drove off without him, and those pliers wouldn't hold for long, so a furious Damon chased Money Mike all over the neighborhood. Suddenly, Craig spotted the Santa Claus robber, and he and Day Day tail him into his hideout where they jump him. Craig beats him with a Christmas tree, but then Santa escapes and they chase him all over the neighborhood, in and out of yards, even houses, including that of a mean, shotgun-toting old man, and the unfriendly gangsters from earlier. Santa made it out to the street thinking he got away with it when suddenly he was mowed down by Pinky's chauffeur. Craig and Day Day catch the Kris Kringle criminal and reclaim all their possessions. They leave him tied up on the roof in a sleigh; Epilogue: Santa remained on the roof for a while, Damon chased Mike all over creation, and Day Day and Craig gave themselves early Christmas presents and got it on with some FINE girls. Oh yeah.Friday After Next. This movie was hilarious. Just as good as the first two. This is it with the Friday series for now, but I hope they make another movie soon. Ice Cube is back as Craig, and he's as funny as ever. Mike Epps is back as Day Day, and he's a riot. He's also that shotgun toting old man towards the end. Also here: John Witherspoon as Willie, Don 'D.C.' Curry as Elroy, Clifton Powell back as Pinky, Katt Williams as Money Mike, and K.D. Aubert as Donna. All very good in this movie. As you may have noticed, Chris Tucker hasn't returned as Smokey again. Maybe in a future Friday movie or Smokey may have his own movie? Anyway, if you've seen Friday and Next Friday, then please, see Friday After Next. It's hilarious. It's loaded with foul language and fine girls. You won't be disappointed. Friday After Next is top-flight entertainment for any day of the week. I recommend it.-
