 A companion
piece to the 1995 hit comedy Friday, New Line Cinema's Next Friday,
starring Ice Cube takes up where the original left off, although
this time the action switches from South Central L.A. to suburbia.
In the initial Friday, a modestly budgeted sleeper that grossed
$28 million and remained a Top 100 video rental for nearly three
years, Craig (Ice Cube) bails his friend out of trouble, survives
a climatic confrontation with Debo, the neighborhood bully, and
ends up with the girl. In Next Friday the bully is back as Debo
(Tommy 'Tiny' Lister, Jr.), who's spent two years behind bars,
is released from prison and is bent on revenge. Fearing for his
son's safety, Craig's father (John Witherspoon) sends his son
to live with Uncle Elroy (Don 'DC' Curry) and cousin Day-Day.
The two have parlayed their lottery winnings into a home in the
suburbs of Rancho Cucamonga. However, Craig soon learns that
trouble can find you no matter where you live. Once again, forces
beyond his control will test his survival skills and his commitment
to family and Craig, with comic relief from Day-Day, will rise
to the challenge.
