Pete Davidson, Keke Palmer and Eva Longoria co-star alongside Eddie Murphy in Tim Story's occasionally diverting heist caper "The Pickup"

Keke Palmer and Eva Longoria also star in the latest feature from director Tim Story ('The Blackening'), about a pair of armored car guards who get ensnared in a deadly pursuit.

A low-key Murphy, whose “Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F” sequel was released straight-to-streaming by Netflix last year, is the responsible adult here. Davidson, the Jerry Lewis to his Dean Martin, portrays a sentimentalized version of the idiots he sometimes plays. The substance of their more substantial conversations, when they have them, is change.
