The gang from
Friday and
Next Friday are back in this
urban comedy, in which
Craig (
Ice Cube) and
Day-Day (
Mike Epps) have finally moved out of their respective parents' homes and gotten an apartment together. However, a bogus neighborhood
Santa Claus (
Rickey Smiley) decides to help
Craig and
Day-Day share the wealth by robbing their apartment, and when he rips off their stereo, he also makes off with their rent money, which was hidden in the speaker cabinets. Desperate to make rent and have some money for Christmas presents,
Craig and
Day-Day land jobs at a local strip mall, where their fathers,
Mr. Jones (
John Witherspoon) and
Uncle Elroy (
Don "D.C." Curry), have gone into business together running a barbecue joint.
Craig and
Day-Day are installed as security guards, and while
Craig tries to make time with
Donna (
K.D. Aubert), a saleswoman at the Pimp N' Ho's Boutique, and keep things orderly at Holy Moly's Doughnut Shop,
Day-Day attempts to transform himself into a master of crime-fighting, which causes a lot more problems than it solves.
Friday After Next is the first feature film from director
Marcus Raboy, who previously directed music videos for
Sting,
Li'l Kim,
Staind, and
Friday After Next star
Ice Cube.
