(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)
