In “The Package” (2018), we meet Tommy, an unlucky amateur boxer desperate for a win. To secure a fight, he agrees to deliver a mysterious package across the state. However, this seemingly simple task becomes a chaotic road trip.
Tommy soon discovers the package attracts unwanted attention. A group of ruthless gangsters, believing it holds valuable stolen goods, relentlessly pursues him. Along the way, he stumbles upon Manny, a quirky, down-on-his-luck salesman, who becomes his unlikely co-pilot.
As they navigate car chases, shootouts, and hilariously awkward situations, an unlikely friendship develops between Tommy and Manny. Together, they must use their wits and a sprinkle of luck to evade the gangsters and deliver the package on time.
The true contents of the package become a running gag, with every character having a different theory. This mystery adds to the humor and keeps the audience guessing until the hilarious, unexpected reveal at the film’s climax.
