Crime 101 Prime Video Streaming Release Date Set for Chris Hemsworth Movie

Amazon MGM Studios has finally announced the Prime Video release date for the upcoming streaming debut of Crime 101, starring MCU vets Chris Hemsworth and Mark Ruffalo. Since its theatrical debut over a month ago, the star-studded crime drama movie has received a Certified Fresh score of 89% on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 185 reviews.

“Set against the sun-bleached grit of Los Angeles, the movie weaves the tale of an elusive thief whose high-stakes heists unfolding along the iconic 101 freeway have mystified police,” reads the official synopsis. “When he eyes the score of a lifetime with hopes of this being his final job, his path collides with a disillusioned insurance broker who is facing her own crossroads, forcing the two to collaborate. Determined to crack the case, a relentless detective closes in on the operation, raising the stakes even higher. As the multimillion-dollar heist approaches, the line between hunter and hunted begins to blur, and all three are forced to confront the cost of their choices–and the realization that there’s no turning back.”
