    Not as good as the other two. Still has some very funny parts. I wish Smoky would come back for one. With him, Ice Cube, and Mike Epps altogether would be hilarious. Wishful thinking!

    'Friday After Next' is on the same level as the other sequel, so that's a good thing if you enjoyed this trilogy's previous entry. I didn't, so naturally didn't like this one either. In my opinion, this is a slight drop-off from last time out but for all intents and purposes it is just as boring. Ice Cube and Mike Epps are as before, the same can be said for John Witherspoon and Don Curry. Terry Crews and Katt Williams are newcomers so at least add a minimal amount of freshness, those two are responsible for any minor chuckles that occur; possibly Bebe Drake too. Sounds like a new entry, seemingly titled 'Last Friday', will be happening at some point in the future. Unless Chris Tucker returns, is it really worth it? There probably is an audience for it, in fairness.
