This is the story of director Lawrence Lamont’s One Of Them Days: When the first of the month comes along and two longtime friends living in south Los Angeles as roommates realize their hard-earned cash has been stolen,

Part of the pleasure of their journey is seeing who they’ll encounter along the way. “One of Them Days” though, blessedly, is not packed with super famous people. Instead, the obstacles for Dreux and Alyssa are simply played by sharp comic actors at the top of their game.

One of Them Days” is a very funny movie. That’s something you don’t find often, especially in the cruel month of January where bad movies go to die. Director Lawrence Lamont and writer Syreeta Singleton create a comedy where every character is not only well cast,

Two friends race to avoid eviction in this comedy directed by Lawrence Lamont and co-starring Vanessa Bell Calloway, Lil Rel Howery, Katt Williams, Janelle James and Maude Apatow.

One of Them Days hinges so much on the chemistry and comedic back and forth of its leads, and Keke Palmer and SZA deliver.

Its timing is bittersweet — the first Los Angeles-set comedy of 2025, opening mid-wildfires — but Keke Palmer energizes “One of Them Days.”
