As in many sequels, Next Friday is not as good as the first. It shifts from slightly amusing to boring, and thankfully is short. Throughout the movie, essentially every character lights up weed, and it feels like Cube's script is under the same influence. Debo tries to trick Mr. Jones into driving him to Craig. Someone smokes weed.
Someone smokes weed.
Day-Day and a friend light up at work. Day-Day's pregnant girlfriend tries to pin the pregnancy on him. Cube is usually more of a commanding presence in movies. Here, he wanders his way from one situation from the next. Epps is like Tucker slower and with a deeper voice, but he is amusing.
