The film features Keke Palmer and SZA in a hilarious, heartwarming adventure filled with laughs and friendship.

Los Angeles: So, “One of Them Days” is one of those fun, wild comedies that doesn’t take itself too seriously. It’s got that classic vibe of a crazy day where everything goes wrong, but in a good way. You know the type—think “Ferris Bueller” or “Superbad.”
Keke Palmer and SZA are the stars, and they totally click as best friends. Their characters are super funny and really relatable. The film feels like a fresh take on the classic “Friday” vibe, and honestly, it’s hard not to compare the two.
Set in Baldwin Village, or as locals call it, The Jungles, the film captures the neighborhood’s unique charm. Keke plays Dreux, a waitress with big dreams, and SZA is her artistic bestie, Alyssa. They’re both trying to make it while dealing with Alyssa’s lazy boyfriend who’s crashing at their place.
Things get hectic when they find out they owe rent and have to come up with $1,500 by 6 p.m. The clock is ticking, and the adventures that follow are a mix of hilarious and a bit chaotic.
Director Lawrence Lamont really nails the comedy timing, and the script is packed with funny moments and some heartfelt bits too. It’s a fun ride as Dreux and Alyssa navigate their crazy day.
The film also features some great cameos from familiar faces, adding to the fun. From a caring neighbor to a quirky lab tech, each character brings something special to the mix. Katt Williams, in particular, steals the show with his memorable scenes.
Even if some of the comedy feels a bit over-the-top, the friendship between Keke and SZA is what really holds everything together. You can see where the story is headed, but that’s part of the charm. It’s all about the laughs, and “One of Them Days” definitely delivers on that front.
