Better Late Then Never

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

yes, this is one of those movies who shouldn't have been filmed, the only good thing here its a Latin lady which in particular I find hot, apart from that its a waste of time.the starting its kinda promising, a drug adict worker (who turns to be the son of the supervisor) cant stop smoking weed and at some point this would take the movie to the next level, where he mistakenly delivers a package to a wrong address, then the movie falls deep into a flat story.there are some laughs yes, but nothing new, don't expect a lot from this movie cause you wont get any.

Sure, there is an attempt by script writer Blair Cobbs to have some sort of story or "plot" for this movie, set in the underbelly of today's urban America. And yes, of course director Benny Boom tries to elicit the most realistic or "believable" acting performances possible from such film veterans as Mike Epps, Mos Def, and Debbie Allen, all of whom appear in NEXT DAY AIR. But, when you get down to brass tacks, this flick is all about showing the nitty gritty life down in the trenches of U.S. inner-cities. This site, IMDb, has a feature available for most movies called "key words." I found the listings there particularly revealing for NEXT DAY AIR. The key words provided for this movie include "cocaine," "female nudity," "marijuana," "punched in the face," "pot-head," "drug dealer," "gang-banger," "cockfighting," "shoot-out," and "thug." Obviously, NEXT DAY AIR can provide a valuable key to survival in urban America for those visiting there from Switzerland or Grosse Pointe Farms.

HBCU247.com writes two smalltime hoods, Brody (Mike Epps) and Guch (Wood Harris) open the box and find a gift from heaven. They immediately arrange to sell the coke to Brody's drug dealer cousin for $150,000. In the meantime, Jesus (Cisco Reves) tries to track down who got his package before the drug kingpin, Bodega Diablo (Emilio Rivera) notices that his drugs are missing. Unfortunately, time has run out and Bodega is in town, and he is furious that his shipment is lost. Bodega will get his drugs back or heads will roll. During the same time, Brody and Guch are about to complete their drug deal with Guch's cousin. They are on a collision course with destiny, because they are about to have company knocking at their door. This was a funny movie about the perils of being high while on the job. PLEASE DO NOT GET HIGH WHILE ON THE JOB!!! It was fun to watch…once and not alone (you may need other people's commentary to make the movie funnier). And now that I think about it…I wonder if my broken furniture and missing items from our several moves happened because our movers were high. Shame…Shame…This movie makes me wonder why people think it is a good idea to get quick money by selling drugs. Stupidity was definitely the new black in this movie, and these people were wearing it well! This movie is good enough to watch once…as a rental! So ENJOY!

(Synopsis) Leo (Donald Faison) works as a next day delivery driver who is delivering packages while being high on weed. Leo deliverers a package containing 10 bricks of high quality cocaine to the wrong apartment number. Two smalltime hoods, Brody (Mike Epps) and Guch (Wood Harris) open the box and find a gift from heaven. They immediately arrange to sell the coke to Brody's drug dealer cousin for $150,000. In the meantime, Jesus (Cisco Reves) tries to track down who got his package before the drug kingpin, Bodega Diablo (Emilio Rivera) notices that his drugs are missing. Unfortunately, time has run out and Bodega is in town, and he is furious that his shipment is lost. Bodega will get his drugs back or heads will roll. During the same time, Brody and Guch are about to complete their drug deal with Guch's cousin. They are on a collision course with destiny, because they are about to have company knocking at their door. (My Comment) This is a funny movie about a package shipping company and the things we think they do to our packages before we get them, such as opening packages and taking watches or other items out, and throwing packages around in the truck before they are delivered to us. The real companies try not to do these things, or they would be out of business. But it is a lot of fun watching some of the things they do in this movie. Mike Epps and Wood Harris are just great as two inept criminals. The bank robbery at the beginning of the movie should win the stupidest criminal award this year. The movie is a little slow at the beginning, but it picks up by the end. There is a moral to the story, don't do or sell drugs. (Summit Entertainment, Run Time 1:30, Rated R)(7/10)
