Friday

Ice Cube and Chris Tucker (star of the Rush Hour movies) are two LA guys hanging out on a Friday – Ice Cube’s just been fired from his job but Tucker has a more serious concern – he smoked rather than sold the $200 stash of dope he got from Faizon Love. Now the two have a choice – find the money by the end of the day or enter a whole world of pain in F Gary Gray’s black comedy., An unemployed young man avoids his father and a bully while trying to help his best friend pay back a debt to a drug dealer., A typical day in the life of Craig, an alright guy with some crazy friends. Like Smokey, who has 24 hours to pay back Deebo, South Central’s nastiest thug – or else. Trouble is, neither Craig’s mother nor his main squeeze have the cash. As time ticks away, the chance this pair will ever see Saturday is fading fast., A neighborhood in South Central L.A. provides the setting for this comedy. Lazy Craig would rather hang out with his pothead pal Smokey than look for a job. After Smokey smokes the dope he was meant to sell, he and Craig try to devise ways to pay his dealer back., Comedy starring and co-written by Ice Cube, who plays a young street dweller who struggles to avoid the dangerous pitfalls – drugs, gang-related warfare and death – on the streets of South Central Los Angeles.
