Good movie but grossly overrated
Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful
The acting in this movie is really good.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
In my opinion "Friday" was one of the funniest movies ever made, Easily one of Ice Cubes best movies. The movie is about a drug dealer (Smokey) that owes his supplier (Big Worm) $200 and drags his unemployed best friend (Craig) into the mix, but the two are impeded by distractions while trying to gather the $200. The movie is where some popular phrases came about, one example being "bye Felicia". It was a great movie and deserved all of the praise it got.
It is Friday and Craig Jones (Ice Cube) is unemployed, having, yesterday, been fired. He is lounging around his house with his friend Smokey (Chris Tucker), a rather incompetent weed dealer. Smokey's problem is that he tends to smoke, rather than sell, his product. This has lead to trouble with Smokey's supplier, Big Worm, who now wants his money, or his product back, or Smokey is a dead man. Then there's Deebo, the local bully, plus Craig's jealous, psychotic girlfriend, Joi, and Debbie, the neighbour Craig has a crush on. A lot can happen while lounging around your house on a Friday.Good fun. The first movie written by Ice Cube, of NWA fame, and the first movie directed by F Gary Gray, who would go on to direct Straight Outta Compton, the movie on NWA. Pretty funny, with a nice relaxed sort of feel.Some good themes towards the end, especially the anti-gun violence stance.Solid performances all round. Ice Cube and Chris Tucker make a good combination - Tucker as the over-the-top, extroverted Smokey and Ice Cube as the more straight-playing Craig.
"Two homies, Smokey and Craig, smoke a dope dealer's weed and try to figure a way to get the $200 they owe to the dealer by ten p.m. that same night. In that time, they smoke more weed and get jacked and shot at in a drive-by." that's the summary of the movie depending to IMDb and to be honest? not much more to talk about. the entire movie is about two homies smoking dope and chatting and that's basically it، not much comedy nor much drama, of you'd ask me this movie is so terrible that i keep asking myself how in God's name did i watch the entire thing?. at the beginning of the movie Smokey's voice over is talking about something that changed the neighborhood for ever and what was it? a drive-by shooting? or two guys smoking dope? or is it a big dude being beaten up? nothing really surprising happened for the entire 1h 31min's that i watched this movie except of Pepsi spilling on my shirt.
I found this movie very funny with a story line that in a sense certain people could relate to in everyday life I thought it was great casting and it was entertaining from the time it started until it ended highly recommend watching this film as well as its sequels it also contains a lot of modern day stars that's considered icons in the entertainment industry as far as today. The movie setting brought back an old time feel and it was centered around the same neighborhood it also was one of the type of movies where one minute something happens but the next u don't know what to expect until it actually happens in other words the plot was unpredictable throughout the film which kept me guessing and attracted my attention into the film even more
