One Of Them Days (2025)

One of Them Days is a 2025 comedy movie directed by Lawrence Lamont and written by Syreeta Singleton. The cast includes Keke Palmer, Sza, Patrick Cage, Maude Apatow, Vanessa Bell Calloway and several others. Keke Palmer brings her magnetic energy to this fast-movie and Sza was a natural in what seems to be her acting debut.

The movie kicks off when best friends and roommates Dreux and Alyssa get a visit from the landlord Uche to pay up the rent. They realise that Alyssa's boyfriend, Keshawn has squandered their rent money. The two friends must race against the clock to avoid eviction on the same day whilst navigating issues in their friendship and relationships.

I loved the friendship between Dreux and Alyssa even when they had to tell each other the bitter truth about certain situations. I think it is good that true friends can tell each other the truth and reconcile when they go through a rough patch.

The relationship between Alyssa and Keshawn was a prime example of how people are in relationships that should have ended a long time ago. She needed to see her worth and I am glad she did eventually. Keke and Maniac on the other hand were a good example of why you should not judge a book by its cover. I loved the plot twist with Maniac.

Overall, it was a fast-paced comedy movie with a few good lessons in there that the audience could gain from. There was quite some use of profanity so it may not be suitable for a younger audience.
