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.

Horror, not comedy, has been the go-to movie genre in recent years, but a movie like “One of Them Days,” starring Keke Palmer and, in her big-screen debut, SZA, is a good reminder of what we’ve been missing.

Keke Palmer was spotted in New York City wearing a stylish ensemble ahead of her latest appearance on "Good Morning America."

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.

The two have nine hours to get the rent money in a fast-talking day-in-the-life-of-the-hood comedy that's really a skewed portrait of a community.

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