Trivia:
'Chris Tucker' did not reprise his role of Smokey from the original film because he'd become a born again Christian after filming Money Talks (1997) and chose to do the Rush Hour series instead. He is referenced to throughout the film and explains the absence of the Smokey character.

How can you top the original Friday, especially without the presence of Chris Tucker? Answer: You can't. That is an impossibility. Chris Tucker--our man Smokey--is simply irreplaceable. (Ice) Cube doesn't even try to replace him. He tries something different here. Instead of a Friday in South Cenral, like the original, this one is mostly in Rancho Cucamonga. Debo has recently broke out of prison with his younger brother Tyrone, and word is out on the street that they're going to pay Craig a visit - give him a savage beating and possibly kill him. So Craig's father Willy (John Witherspoon) decides to drop his son off at his brother Elroy's luxurious home in Rancho Cucamonga so things can cool off awhile in the hood. Elroy is the complete opposite of his brother Willy and even shares a blunt with his nephew. "I know Willy don't let ya smoke in his house. But I'm your uncle Elroy! I don't give a damn how high ya get in mine! As long as you let me have a hit too." Cube's nephew is a nervous kid named Day-day played by Mike Epps. Epps does an alright job, I guess. But seeing him on screen every minute made me think through most of the movie, Man that'd be a lot funnier if it was Smokey doing it.
My score: 3 stars out of four.
