Late '90s cult classic, starring Ice Cube as Craig, a recently fired shipping worker, and Chris Tucker as Smokey, his stoner friend. Hilarious hijinks ensue as Smokey insists on getting Craig to smoke some marijuana that he was supposed to sell for Worm, the local drug baron. Craig and Smokey end up on the run from Worm, as well as Deebo, the local bully, and have many misadventures. Can Craig survive without getting killed or squashed? Will he end up following his father's footsteps and becoming a dog catcher? Can a movie be considered excellent on the strength of its one-liners alone?
