Produced and directed by Tim Story, The Pickup is the heist action-comedy film starring Eddie Murphy, Pete Davidson, Eva Longoria, and Keke Palmer. It is one of the latest original movies to land on Amazon Prime. A routine cash pickup takes a wild turn when two mismatched armoured truck drivers, Russell (Murphy) and Travis (Davidson), are ambushed by ruthless criminals led by a savvy mastermind, Zoe (Palmer), with plans that go way beyond the cash cargo. As chaos unfolds around them, the unlikely duo must navigate high-risk danger, clashing personalities, and one very bad day that keeps getting worse. We break down all things from the "buddy action comedy" genre, the high and lows to the twists and turns, to the action that impressed at least one of us.

Three look-alike cousins. One runaway pup. And the Backwoods of Strickfield after dark… what could go wrong? When Daisy May's dog bolts into the trees, Mouse (Maddy), Eileen, and Daisy May give chase—and stumble into something hungry lurking in the brush.
