User Review
One of the funniest movies of all time!---10/10
Rating: 10/10
When someone asks me which movie i have seen the most times, i have to
answer Friday. I know the movie pretty much verbatim, and have seen it
well over 30 times. Chris Tucker is one of the funniest people ever.
This is his best performance, followed closely by Rush Hour. There are
so many funny moments in this movie it would be impossible to name them
all here. My favorites would have to be when Smokey meets his blind
date, who turns out to be fat and bald, and the scenes where Deebo
confronts Smokey and Craig, played by Ice Cube. The movie has a
hilarious supporting cast, including John Witherspoon, Tiny Lister, and
Bernie Mac. Critics don't know anything. If you ever have a chance to
see this and enjoy urban comedy and Chris Tucker, don't even hesitate
to watch. 10/10
