NEXT FRIDAY REVIEW 24.2

Next friday is a comedy film that was released in 2000, the film was written by Ice Cube & Dj Pooh whilst being directed by Steve Carr  when  Uncle Elroy and Day Day owe money on taxes so Craig finds a way to steal from the next door neighbors to pay off the taxes so Uncle Elroy's house doesn't get put up for auction.

Next friday is based in the late 90s, the film is classed as a 'comedy' and is also a sequal to the film friday, this was the first film to come from the production company cubevision.

the script has been put in detail to the point where by just reading the script you would be able to picture what is going on here is a part of the script

EXT. FRONT LAWN - OVERHEAD SHOT - NIGHT

DEBO is laid out on the grass.

  CRAIG (V.O.)
 In the movies, when you beat up the
 neighborhood bully; you suppose to live
 happily ever after.  But around here;
 that's when all the drama begins...

Blue and red police lights flash over Debo's body.  Two
sheriffs walk INTO OUR FRAME and stand over Debo.  They flash
their lights on him.

  CRAIG (cont'd) (V.O.)
 Last Friday; I got fired for the first
 time.  I got high for the first time.  I
 got shot at for the first time and I
 kicked Debo's ass for the first time...

They get him to his feet; but he stumbles and falls in the
bushes like a knocked out prize fighter.  The sheriffs laugh
at him.

Debo looks dazed and confused.  The sheriffs help him out the
bushes and start to cuff him.

  CRAIG (cont'd) (V.O.)
 I was the man that night; and Debo ended
 up going to jail for a couple of years.
 But he told Ezal he was getting out next
 Friday.  He said, when he see me, he was
 gonna smoke me on the spot...

They walk him OUT OF FRAME...

      FADE TO BLACK.

      OVER BLACK:

  CRAIG (cont'd) (V.O.)
 And today is next Friday...

SOUNDTRACK!

"New Line Cinema presents, etc., etc...

Here is the opening scene for Next Friday as you can see there is the correct information 

for a director. the difference with this part of the script is that it has Voice Overs

which is clearly states in brackets shortened down to (V.O) theres is alot of voiceovers 

during the opening scenes with brief actions, the pace of this script within the opening scene

i would say is slow as there are a few lines per voice over so there is alot more to say that just 

a 1 word sentence which i would consider as a face pace script.

INT. HOUSE

Craig waves back, but something ain't right.  Uncle Elroy
steps in with SUGA (39), his nymphomaniac girlfriend.  She's
wearing a sexy nightie that's a size too small.

  UNCLE ELROY
 Craig, I want you to meet my old lady,
 Suga.  Suga, this is Craig.

  SUGA
 Oooh, ba-by!

She gives Craig a big, juicy hug and kiss, grabbing his ass
in the process.

  SUGA (cont'd)
  (hugging and grabbing)
 You even cuter than your baby pictures.

  CRAIG
 Thank you.

  SUGA
  (whispering in Craig's ear)
 You know, I'mma be your new auntie.  We
 can keep it all in the family if you want
 to.

Uncle Elroy un-hugs them.

  UNCLE ELROY
 Okay, okay, that's enough.  Go put on
 some damn clothes.

  SUGA
  (pouting)
 Elroy.

  UNCLE ELROY
 Suga.  Go ahead and get us something to
 smoke on.

  SUGA
 Okay.
  (winking)
 Bye, Craig.

  CRAIG
 Nice to meet you.

Suga walks out. 

This part of the script would be considered as a fast pace as there is a conversation

taking place , even though this is at a fast pace it still in detail as it has the actions, The script is put together well as it is in a professional format , the names are also in capital letters so you can see clearly who is speaking or what is going on at the current time, it is easy to understand the script if the scriptwriter was to give this straight to the director they would instantly know what kind of film it is going to be.
