Based on a story by Roald Dahl, Charlie (Peter Ostrum), a sweet boy from a poor family, dreams of finding one of five golden tickets hidden inside chocolate bar wrappers which will admit him to the eccentric and reclusive Willy Wonka's (Gene Wilder) magical factory. One after another, tickets are discovered by ghastly children — but will the lad find the last remaining one and have all his dreams come true? And will the fact that grandpa has been LYING about his infirmity just to get out of chores finally be revealed?
It's Friday and Craig Jones (Ice Cube) has just been fired for stealing cardboard boxes. To make matters worse, rent is due, he hates his overbearing girlfriend, Joi (Paula Jai Parker), and his best friend, Smokey (Chris Tucker), owes the local drug dealer (Faizon Love) money — and that's all before lunch. As the hours drag on, Jones and Smokey experience the gamut of urban life, complete with shoot-outs and overly sexual pastors, concentrated into one single, unbelievable Friday. Friday is showing on a Wednesday. Sorry for the confusion.
