Palmer's Pick-Up

About This Movie

Palmer's Pick-Up is one of those offbeat comedies that somehow manages to capture the absurdity of the late '90s. You've got these two not-so-bright guys running a hauling company, and they get roped into transporting a huge, mysterious box that’s tied to some religious mumbo jumbo. The pacing is a bit erratic, but that’s part of its charm. The humor leans heavily on slapstick and situational comedy, often relying on the dimwittedness of the characters. There’s a quirky atmosphere that feels like a mix of road trip and supernatural elements, which is pretty distinctive. And while the performances might not be Oscar-worthy, they definitely bring a certain charm that fits the film's vibe. It’s a curios piece that stands out in the comedy landscape for its bizarre premise.

Oddball humor throughout · Religious overtones with a twist · Late '90s vibe encapsulated
