About this movie

An exhilarating mix of dark comedy, white-knuckle action and dramatic intrigue, Gringo joyrides into Mexico, where mild-mannered businessman Harold Soyinka (David Oyelowo) finds himself at the mercy of his back-stabbing business colleagues (Joel Edgerton and Charlize Theron), local drug lords and a morally conflicted black-ops mercenary (Sharlto Copley). Crossing the line from law-abiding citizen to wanted criminal, Harold battles to survive his increasingly dangerous situation in ways that raise the question: Is he out of his depth — or two steps ahead? - ( Original Title - Gringo )

A piece of trash. There were a few funny parts in the movie but otherwise it was a waste. (Spoilers maybe) The main character was unbelievably gullible about his wife, job, and so called best friend and his ending was not as satisfactory as it should have been considering everything he went through. The ones responsible for what he went through deserved much more than what they got.

WOW, what a GREAT AWESOME MOVIE!!! Great story, and a nice blend of action and comedy. I like how they made the main character a christian, and he knew what he was talking about. God makes a way where there seems to be know way. Also when things look really bad or impossible it can turn out for our own good. Perfect example is Steven Spielberg when making JAWS, and they were having all those problems with the fake shark Bruce. Movie turned out to be a HUGE HIT CLASSIC.

Its a good movie. Its a good date movie, sit home, have some popcorn and escape reality for a few hours. Good acting and entertaining. Good actors, theres nothing bad about it. Its not a blockbuster, its just a good movie to watch for a night. I hadnt even heard about it before, wish I had.
