My sister lent me the movie "Friday" a couple months ago, and I wasn't really too interested in seeing the sequels after being disappointed with the first "Friday" movie. But I figured to give Next Friday a chance because one of my friends told me that it was a lot more fun than the first and I agree. I know the rating on IMDb doesn't seem too promising, but believe me, I think that people were just being a little too harsh on the film because it wasn't like the first one.

Craig has to stay with his lottery winning uncle and cousin 'till things cool down back home since the bully he took down in the first Friday broke out of prison. Well, Craig and his cousin, Day-Day, get into some crazy situations with Day-Day's ex and the neighbors across the street who are dealing with some heavy stuff. When Craig finds out about his uncle and cousin's house being sold in an auction, he and Day-Day try to find a way to get the money to keep the house.

I really laughed a lot more in Next Friday than the first one, as much as I love Chris Tucker, I have to admit that he was somewhat annoying in the first movie, it was nice having a little tone down in this film. But seriously, people need to cut this movie a break because it is a really funny film when you just let go and relax. Well, I hope Friday after Next is just as funny, but we'll see.

7/10

Decent enough to watch but a step down from the original. Some of the new characters just aren't as good, would of been better if they had kept in same neighborhood.
