Additional InformationThoroughly charming and totally hilarious day-in-the-life comedy in which co-writer Ice Cube plays the stoic Craig opposite Chris Tucker's Smokey, a brilliantly rendered hyperactive marijuana enthusiast. The two twentysomethings, Craig recently wrongly fired and Smokey terminally slacking and scamming, barely make it through one highly eventful day. Eloquent commentary on themes like community, family, friendship, and violence is seamlessly blended with lighter treatments of young romance, bathroom emergencies, nosy neighbors and much more. Casually impeccable performances by the entire cast make this film a standout.

ReviewsNew York Times - ...A high-energy comedy....It offers a fascinating glimpse at the way street life enters pop culture....A slick, watchable movie..., USA Today - ...This is one funky, raw, rambling, shambling jokefest..., Entertainment Weekly - "...The sweetest, funniest, most essential Chris Tucker....Ice Cube reveals his melting side....[The air is] funky with the scent of hot young talent..." -- Rating: A-
