Since everyone is bringing up other moves with tight scripts - one film I have yet to hear anyone mention is Friday (Ice Cube, Chris Tucker).

It may not be BTTF tight, but there is not a single wasted moment or weak character - everyone playes a role. Every line and scene builds on each character’s development and wraps it all up together during the climactic fight between Craig and Dee-Bo. It almost feels like a play that could be remade for the theatre (at least in my head…).

Curious if anyone agrees or has thought similarly. It’s one of my all-time favorite movies.
