Acerca de esta película

Hard-core rapper Ice Cube, after appearing in such hard-hitting films as Boyz 'N the Hood and Higher Learning, played his first comic role in this picture he co-wrote with frequent musical collaborator DJ Pooh. Craig (Ice Cube) manages to get fired on his day off (though he claims it's through no fault of his own) and spends the day hanging out with his buddy Smokey (Chris Tucker) and trying to avoid his father (John Witherspoon), who wants him to find another job immediately. Smokey (whose name might have something to do with his tremendous fondness for marijuana) has even more serious problems; he was given $200 worth of weed to sell by Big Worm (Faizon Love), but he ended up smoking it instead, and if he can't come up with the money by the end of the day, he'll be in a world of hurt (and will put Craig in the same place just for being his friend). And Deebo (Tom "Tiny" Lister, Jr.), a gargantuan bully who roams the neighborhood on his bicycle, has it in for Craig, while Craig tries his best just to stay out of his way. As one would expect, Friday features a strong hip-hop soundtrack, featuring tracks by such artists as Dr. Dre, Cypress Hill, Mack 10, and Funkdoobiest, as well as old-school R&B selections from The Isley Brothers, Roger, and Rose Royce.

Not quite as funny as "Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the 'Hood," but this movie will have you laughing so hard throughout the entire movie, you may just have trouble holding on to your juice, lol. This is the first installment in a trilogy...all of them are worth the money to rent, but this one us by far and away the best of the three.

Really good movie. Except the ending was unrealistic. Most people would have at least shot debo in his leg or arm for hitting on a woman. And the fact Oce cube doesn't in this scene is unreal. The message saying you aren't a man if you use a gun is inaccurate. The situation required a gun for the moment.

One of my top 10 and most certainly a classic. Brings back so many memories of sitting around, smoking, Friday, and nothing else to do. No pun intended. If you're looking for that ride back in SC with your Doce de Lece then this is certainly the story for you!
