Critics Consensus

Dishing out enough laughter and chemistry to spare through Keke Palmer and SZA, One of Them Days makes the buddy-comedy genre feel like magic once again.

Audience Says

With throwback Friday vibes, Keke and SZA up the ante on the buddy comedy and make One of Them Days a hilarious ride worth a full month’s rent.

Stephanie Zacharek

TIME Magazine

With their flirty, wisecracking charm, these two performers go a long way in setting the movie’s tone, particularly its generosity of spirit.

Jonathan Romney

Financial Times

Written by Syreeta Singleton, the film is ostensibly a generic race-against-time comedy, but it also goes the extra mile. For starters, this is an affecting but entirely unsentimental study of mismatched friendship.

Rated: 4/5

The six laughs test was passed very, very early on.

trans|cendental cinema

By giving us engaging characters with strong motivations and increasingly dire stakes, One of Them Days draws the audience in and keeps us invested in their story.

Rated: 3/4

Matt Brunson

Film Frenzy

One of Them Days is one of them race-against-the-clock comedies, but two strong leads, colorful supporting characters (including Aziza Scott as a female Terminator), and an undercurrent of societal angst succeed in making it both fresh and funny.

Rated: 3/4
