Pete Davidson was amazing in "The King of staten island", Keke Palmer has the bite, sass and timing of the most hilarious family member you love to be around and Eddie Murphy is without a doubt legendary within the comedy world, so...why did this film feel like no one really cared to pull their part?
Don't get me wrong, it had it's moments, but with comedy it's about delivery and timing, and it seemed as if they wanted to add as much dialouge as possible? It felt forced.
And I get excited about a good action plot, but where I thought the comedic timing was incredible in movie's like "The Kingsmen", this movie left me longing for fewer lines, more non speaking action sequences. Oh! And the way I never feel quite clever enough to see through some heists in other movies, this one was badly written and played out. Almost like an SNL skit, that goes on for way to long.
One more thing: The RFID tag is wireless, and when they do have a code to scan, it will not look like a regular barcode. Plus come on, that security would have needed some kind of hacking or handling.
I know the leading cast of this movie has shown a ton of talent and passion before, and I am excited to see more, just hope it's better written before it's put into production.

The Pickup is another example of mindlessly entertaining content from a streaming service that's highly generic and designed to be forgotten about whilst being entertaining enough thanks to the over qualified stars who sustain it over the course of a thankfully concise run time. It's an action comedy that peaks within the first 30 minutes (which could've been the whole movie) but it still works in a predictable fashion.
Eddie Murphy and Pete Davidson are a solid pairing who both get some good laughs with Davidson being the more hysterical one and Murphy generally playing it a little too straight. Keke Palmer's natural magnetism shines through even when she's given bland material like this. Unfortunately, Marshawn Lynch's undeniable comedic talents are criminally wasted in the very small role he's given which is a real shame.
It is a little frustrating to see director Tim Story following his best film to date with a bland streaming movie that looks just as visually flat as the rest and the film struggles to move from being comedy heavy to action heavy. However, there are also a couple of decent action sequences and the film has a bit of an energetic visual style interspersed throughout which delivers exposition in a slightly more interesting way.

The Pickup has enough action and jokes to last the full 90 minutes, it has all the attributes but falls short in the reality department. Enjoyable well acted but in the end the inevitable ending lacks like most comedic actions a worthwhile ending. Enjoyable but only just. Eddie Murphy plays a strong part and is the glue for the film. It has Beverly Hill Cop remnants.
Wow this was a really bad movie. Plot is AWFUL, for a truck heist movie there's no action and the dialogue seems improvised or written by a teenager. Now I must admit I'm not really a Keke Palmer fan so that didn't help but I saw Eddie Murphy and Pete Davidson and thought it has to at least have a few funny scenes. Nope, I was wrong, This movie was a cash grab and should be avoided.
Eddie Murphy and Pete Davidson save this movie from a horribly middling director. I've never heard of him before, but a quick look at his credits tells me why.
Without the performances and on screen chemistry of the two lead actors, this movie would be a one out of ten instead of a five out of ten. I'm not sure how this guy keeps getting work, but he must have something on some studio execs.
I'd like to go on about the movie. The writing is okay and the action sequences are passable. But its the directing and editing and some really really terrible voice over work of the bad guys when they have their helmets on that take this movie down. But its really not worth it.
If you have a netflix subscription, its a fun watch. Good thing no one hase to pay 20 bucks or more at a theater for it though. Then it would be a definite pass.
