'The Pickup' Review: Eddie Murphy and Pete Davidson's Action-Comedy Falls Flat
Eddie Murphy and Pete Davidson star as hapless armored truck drivers unwittingly involved in a duplicitous schemer's heist in The Pickup, a film that elicits a few chuckles but is weakened by its stars' strained chemistry. Although they make little sense in context, the chase scenes do check the requisite bullets-and-explosions boxes of a modern action-comedy; however, gaping plot holes and plodding exposition push the limits of suspension of disbelief. Factor in Keke Palmer, Andrew Dice Clay and Eva Longoria utterly wasted in a supporting role, and it all adds up to a forgettable experience that should have been better, given the talent involved.
