Critic Reviews

Friday is funnier and funkier than "Bad Boys," more homegrown-seeming, less manufactured. It plays like "House Party" with attitude. [26 Apr 1995]Full Review

Jay Carr
Boston Globe

In his [Ice Cube's] dramatic roles, Cube's raised eyebrows usually unleashed a fearsome glare and a hint of danger; here, his expressions are more quizzical, amused or confused. He plays against type, just as the movie itself plays against hype.Full Review

Washington Post

Friday indulges without restraint in almost everything that can raise eyebrows, including the ogling of women (although the females—for a genre like this—are relatively empowered), toilet gags, profane street talk and drug use. But all of these things serve the humor.Full Review

It's the right format for this scattershot jokefest, which at times resembles a vaudeville act crossed with the kind of goofy bludgeoning antics that sometimes make it into gangsta MTV videos. [26 Apr 1995]Full Review
