Summary: NO SMOKEY NO MOVIE
Review: I just couldn't get in to this movie. It was still a pretty good movie, but without smokey it just didn't have that future cult classic feel to it like the first Friday. While the smokey replacement "cousin" did have his funny moments, he just didn't fill the void of the missing smokey. If you can wait, I suggest you save a couple of dollars by renting it when it comes to video. I mean come on "You don't want non of the smoke dog, rrrruuff.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: the best friday yet
Review: this was i think the funnest one yet..or if not just as funny. but i still like the first one better. but only by a littel bit. i liked this on some much because this had a better story plot than the other and because they are really doing somthing in the movie. but they are both good movies. so as soon as next friday comes out pick it up cause it will make you die laughing

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Funny Movie, But Not As Funny as the First Friday
Review: I thought this movie was funny, but I think it would have been funnier with Smokey. If you haven't seen the first one, watch it before you view this one or you may find it a bit confusing. If this movie had Smokey in the cast, I would have given it 5 stars. Overall, it is definetly a movie worth watching if you are up for a laugh.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: WHERE THE HELL IS SMOKEY
Review: WHERE IS SMOKEY? HE WAS THE ONE THAT MADE THE FIRST ONE HILARIOUS AS HELL. AND THIS GUYS WHO IS PLAYING DAY-DAY, IS NO COMPARISON. I HEAR THAT THERE ARE RUMORS, OF A "FRIDAY AFTER NEXT" IN THE WORK, BUT IF THERE IS NO SMOKEY, THEN THAT CAN WAIT UNTIL NEVER-UARY.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Is it Friday again?
Review: The first Friday I thought was a little boring in sections and not as good as other films it was being compared to as House Party(which is a great movie). The second offering Next Friday I did find a better film, and I know some people will really love it, and some will really hate it. I simply didn't mind it, a very average movie.

It's simple if you liked the first one you'll like this, if you havn't seen the first one, watch it first. If you didn't like the first one don't watch this one.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Another Comedy Classic
Review: Next Friday is on its way to being a classic like the movie Friday. While this was a very funny movie, it lacked the main ingredient,that made Friday as funny as it was. Chris Tucker was the main character that helped pull of a day in the life of Craig and Smokey. Next Friday was extremely funny, but could have been near perfect with Smokey (Chris Tucker) back in the cast. The main joke that was used in the movie was copied from the original and didn't have the same affect the second time around. Although not as good as Friday,I would recommend this movie to anyone.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Ms. Lady's opinion
Review: I give "Next Friday", five stars. I thought it was a well thought out and well put together film. Some would haters would love to hate, but it was funny. I laughed out loud on a regular basis. It was unfortunate that Chris Tucker couldn't be a part of this film, but at the same time that didn't take away from the humor.The new dude gets much props. He was very funny and gave the film much flavor. Even the music was on point. I give all due props and respect to Ice Cube. Do your thing big guy. And for all those don't knows out there,Welcome to Cube Vision. Ms. Lady has left the building.

Summary: The Friday Collection Left The Other Movies In The Ash Tray
Review: First off I'd like to start my review like this.
Why are you guys even attempting to compare these movies to other ones?

Friday ... it really set the standards to what goes on now in our community. It told people "dont be ashamed if you do it".

This second movie was without a doubt just as funny as the first one. Yes, Chris Tucker is not in it but they covered it up well in the movie.

The whole plot of the movie is that Craig has to get away from his neighbor---hood because of Deebo. He went to jail but rumors circulated that he was planning an escape.

Craig's Father decides he's going to move in with Uncle Elroy and his cousin Day-Day. His uncle had won the lotto so he moved into what they called a "White neighborhood".

Trouble occurs naturally. Ya'll just gotta buy it. If you haven't done so already, buy part 3 (Friday After Next) aswell.

Summary: "Next Friday" DVD Review!
Review: Ice Cube returns for the second installment in the "Friday" franchise. This time, he's moving out of the hood and into his rich uncle's home in Rancho Cucamonga. Chris Tucker's out of the picture and in his place is Mike Epps as Cube's wacky cousin. Also returning for this one are John Witherspoon and Tiny "Zeus" Lister but a majority of the characters are brand new to the series with Don "D.C." Curry, Tamala Jones, Clifton Powell, Justin Pierce, and Sticky Fingaz joining the ensemble cast.

"Next Friday" has Craig moving out to the 'burbs when he learns that the neighborhood bully, Deebo (Lister) has escaped from prison and is looking for him. The suburbs prove to be just as much trouble as he has to deal with the Latino thugs who live next door, a trigger-happy record store owner, and his cousin's obsessive ex-girlfriend. When it turns out that his uncle has just 24 hours to come up with some money to cover some unpaid taxes on the house, Cube devises a plan that has him, his cousin, Day-Day (Epps), and their token white friend (the late Justin Pierce) breaking into the next door neighbor's house.

"Next Friday" is a decent follow-up but the loss of co-writer DJ Pooh and star Chris Tucker is a lot to get over. Epps puts in a humorous comedic performance but he's no Tucker. The new characters are hit and miss. Amy Hill's Asian neighbor is a weak and tired sterotype-driven character. If you can't tell that Hill isn't Korean by looking at her, her awful attempt at an accent will give it away. Jacob Vargas as the loud-mouthed Latio neighbor is entertaining though they seemed to have run out of material for him in some areas. Sticky Fingaz is hilarious as Tyrone, Deebo's prison sidekick and Lisa Rodriguez is easy on the eyes as Cube's love interest.

While it's not on the same level as the original, "Next Friday" has more than a few laughs. Cube and Epps have pretty good chemistry and the suburban backdrop makes for a nice change of pace for an urban comedy (it's certainly done more effectively than on Fox's "Red And Meth"). The DVD presentation has a lot of cool extra features including an alternate ending, the Mike Epps audition tape, and an audio commentary by director Steve Carr.
