Summary: rabbits reveiw on friday after next
Review: this film is great i think everyone should buy it and if you dont like it then you should be shot this is one hell of a film

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: It was okay
Review: Friday After Next is basically the original Friday with less laughs. The end resullt is a movie that is okay, but you expected a bit more, kind of like what you expected in Next Friday, a but more. Friday After Next is about Ice Cube and Mike Epps moving back into the hood in an apartment complex. 2 nights before christmas there presents are stolen and they are left with no rent money or presents to give each other (or whoever they were plannin on givin them to.) The robber is a masked Santa Clause who is a person who has been stealing christmas presents from famalies for his own use.

When I first heard of the movie, my frirst impression was to see it. However the "cristmas theme" brought me to skipping it and watching it on dvd. Too bad that I waited so long and didnt see it till last night cause this movie is not one to sleep on, or skip for that matter. The movie, is for the most part a funny movie. However after watching the first 2 you'd expcet a little more from this franchise, like more laughs and funnier ones at that. There are plenty of laugh from Epps however and creates the humor in the movie. Acting is done very well in the movie. Epps for example makes you believe that will go crazy if he has some authority. It doesn't seem like he's trying to be funny, it seems like he's exactly like that. The new characters (like the homosexual or Money Mike - the pimp) don't look like there acting, and if they are there doing a reallygood job. The homosexual does seem like he is a homosexual and money mike does have all the aspects to be a pimp. This is something that at the moment makes the movie just that more funny.

There are only a few things bad from the movie. One is that Ice Cube seems to not have progressed as an actor since the first movie.Is still the same old Ice cube and all of his moves in ths movie are widely expected. Also the fact that the rest of the family is not recognized during the movie. Sure there are afew scenes containing his family but actors like John Witherspoon deserve a much bigger role in the movie. More lines, and more to do with the plot.

All in all Friday After Next is a god movie, not one to pass, but is only worth a rent. 3 stars for the lack of more humor and suppporting roles from the family

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: 3rd Friday Makes A Better Coaster Than A DVD!
Review: "Friday After Next" tries to be both a successful addition to the Friday series and an effective "holiday in the hood" movie and by all means, fails at both. Ice Cube reprises his role as both writer and actor for this very dissapointing third installment.

Craig and his cousin, Day-Day have moved back to South Central where they work as rent-a-cops at a shopping plaza on Christmas Eve. With their rent money stolen by an evil Santa Claus the night before, they need to come up on some quick cash and fast. With Day-Day's buffonish antics getting the duo in some serious trouble with their equaly-goofy boss who runs a donut shop at the plaza, they may be out of a job before the day ends.

"Friday After Next" is such a poor effort at continuing what was once a decent comedy franchise. Cube is just as solid a "straight man" as he was in the first film but his supporting cast has gotten noticeably weaker. Giving Mike Epps more to do and say doesn't help this movie either. Fifteen minutes into it, I was practically begging for Chris Tucker. Terry Crews as the muscle-bound bully plays like a watered-down version of Tiny Lister's "Deebo" with a painfully unfunny and uncreative "prison homsexual" gimmick thrown on. The joke never dies and dramatized scenes of the character raping another male character in the bathroom for the sake of humor are about as low brow as you can get. There are a few funny lines here and there (enough to fit into one of the ads) but all of the absolutetly dumb and stereotypical characters kill what little humor there is. Cube's script is about as uninspired as you get. Did anyone notice there are at least two or three characters who serve the same purpose as one another?

"Friday After Next" brings a lot of special features to a movie that in all honesty is not nearly worth the effort. If you are a fan of the Friday trilogy, the DVD may be worth it for the features but your best bet is to act like this movie doesn't exist. If as much time and effort was brought to making the movie as was the DVD, it might have made for something worthwhile.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: making a trilogy really wasnt a good idea
Review: I agree the first one had spark and the second one was ok but this one is ok too but it goes on way to long with its dirty jokes and its potty humor. Epps and Cube get a few laughs. My favorite scene is when Epps terroizes the religious ladys, thats the funniest part in there. it starts off good with santa riping them off but then boom it explodes and never comes back. hope they DONT make a fouth movie

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Funny At Times
Review: "Friday After Next" is the third installment in the "Friday" films starring Ice Cube. In this installment, Craig and his cousin Day Day begin new jobs as security guards for a strip mall where their family owns a restaurant. The night before, Craig and Day Day are robbed by a guy dressed as Santa Claus. Not only did the robber steal their Christmas gifts, but he also stole their rent money, which is, of course, due the next day. Thus begins a Friday filled with things going wrong and seeing just how crazy people can be.

While there are some very funny moments in the film, it somewhat falls flat. Ice Cube and Mike Epps are very good together as Craig and Day Day, but many of the other characters start off as funny and then become annoying.

Fans of the "Friday" series will love this installment, but I personally look forward to seeing Ice Cube in the sequel to Barbershop.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Very Funny in Places, Lot Better than first two
Review: The third in the friday series is the funniest movie of the three. The first two were very boring and had very little laughs in them but the third is hillarious in places. Thank god Chris Tucker was not in this one as he was dreadfull in the first Friday Movie. I recommend "Friday after next" but for real side splitting knockout funny comedy check out "Don't be a menace to South Central while drinking your juice in the Hood" starring the fantastic Wayans Brothers.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good but i thought they said your favorites were commin back
Review: ok where the hell is Chris Tucker, he shoulda got outa rehab by now, i'm sorry but witout tucker they just don't seem right, i mean next friday was resonable since u knew smokey was goin 2 b gone but still they shoulda brought him back for this 1

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: IT'S STILL FUNNY, BUT REALLY DID IT HAVE TO GO TO #3?
Review: THIS TIME, CRAIG AND DAY-DAY GET ROBBED BY SANTA CLAUS WHILE THEY'RE ASLEEP. KNOWING THEY'RE RENT MONEY IS DUE, THEY MUST NOW FIND A WAY TO EITHER CATCH THE SANTA THAT ROBBED THEM OR GET A JOB AND RAISE THE MONEY BACK. EVERYBODY'S STILL FUNNY, BUT I DON'T THINK THEY SHOULDA WENT PAST THE ORIGINAL ''FRIDAY''. GOOD MOMENTS AND NOT TOO LONG RUNNING TIME MAKES THIS ACCEPTABLE. BUT FOR REAL, DON'T DO A FOURTH FRIDAY!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Don't get fooled into even watching this movie
Review: If you enjoyed the first Friday, then you will find this one a complete waste of time. They've run out of material. There is no plot. No direction. No comedy! Who are these people giving this piece of junk 3/4/5 stars? I'm hoping you, the reader of this, has better taste. Life is short, don't waste it on this film!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: weak..
Review: theres not much to say about this one. Friday was hilarious, Next Friday was pretty funny and ok, Friday After the Next didnt change the direction.. 5 stars, 3 stars and now barely 2.

the plot was weak, the jokes were not as good as before, the some of characters were annoying and had been taken to ofar so on.. really cant think of anything good to say, a pity.
