Delivery man Leo Jackson (Donald Faison) is definitely on the wrong road to success. He still lives at home, he and his girlfriend just broke up, and he has multiple complaints stacked against him at work. Fortunately, Leo has plenty of marijuana to keep his mind off his troubles. But when he accidentally delivers a box of cocaine to the wrong address, Leo finds himself in the middle of a bad deal that may just cost him his life.

Critics Consensus

Rife with half-baked jokes and excessive violence, Next Day Air is an uninspired stoner comedy.

Michael Phillips Chicago Tribune May 29, 2009
2/4
Next Day Air is sort of bracing, though it isn't very good: Its total lack of dramatic and comic bearings, to say nothing of a point, keeps you wondering about the next fatality, in a half-interested way. Go to Full Review
Marc Savlov Austin Chronicle May 14, 2009
0.5/5
Consistently unremarkable from its dullsville title on down. Go to Full Review
Michelle Orange Village Voice May 13, 2009
There are no cops, not much farcical energy, and none of the satiric edge it would take to pull off the film's grim denouement. Go to Full Review
Joshua Starnes ComingSoon.net Apr 20, 2011
5/10
Next Day Air is well-intentioned but ill-thought, an amateur work by a first time filmmaking team trying to make the kind of film they like to watch, but ignorant of what makes those kinds of films work. Go to Full Review
William Goss Cinematical Dec 17, 2009
[Director Benny Boom] keeps the proceedings competent in the face of a labyrinthine plot that begs for more so-called flair than it deserves. Go to Full Review
Aaron Hillis GreenCine Nov 17, 2009
7/10
Updates the spirit of blaxploitation without feeling pressed to worship or satirize it. Go to Full Review
