Debo has escaped from prison and is looking to get revenge on Craig. So Craig's dad takes him to Rancho Cucamonga to hide out with his Uncle Elroy and cousin Day-Day, who moved to the suburbs after winning the lottery.

User Review

Actually quite funny without Chris Tucker

Rating:

Next Friday is actually pretty funny even though it lacks the film's first
scene stealer Chris Tucker. Ice Cube makes a funny script with the help of
new scene stealer Mike Epps who plays his cousin Day-Day. All in all if you
just want a good time check this one out.
