2 votes "What the hell...I'm gonna enjoy what's left of the summer."Now this is how you make a proper action-thriller! Get the Gringo (a.k.a. How I Spent My Summer Vacation) is one hell of a film; a stripped-down, gritty actioner reminiscent of the kind of dark, no-nonsense thrillers we saw back in the '70s and '80s. With so many glossy, CGI-laden blockbusters hitting screens these days, i... read more Review11 months, 2 weeks ago at Jul 3 19:39
1 vote Mel Gibson is at his best when someone is kicking the shit out of him.

 Watched in 2013 (135 movies items)" The odds are against him. So is everyone else. ▶ Watch the trailer Story/Writing: ★★★ Acting: ★★★☆ Visuals: ★★★ Soundtrack: ★★★ Overall: ★★★☆ Liked: • Decent writing. Nothing great, but good for what it is. • Some decent action. • Mel Gibson. He may be a nutcase, but I still enjoy his work. • The kid. Good acting by Kevin Hernandez. • Grimy setting. • Narration. Always been a sucker for narration for some reason. Disliked: • N/A. Can't re"  Gaby added this to a list 5 months, 2 weeks ago
 2012 At the Movies *The Final Cut*(Español) (75 movies items)" VACACIONES EXPLOSIVAS Explosive Holidays August 26 El titulo poco creativo de esta pelicula no me daba muchas expectativas. Pero no estuvo tan mal, la pase bien viendola, fue como volver a encontrarme con el Mel Gibson de Arma Mortal."  Adair881 added this to a list 5 months, 2 weeks ago
 Watched October 2012 (21 movies items)"Storyline Apprehended by the Mexican authorities, Driver is sent to a hardcore prison where he enters the strange and dangerous world of 'El Pueblito'. Not an easy place for an outsider, unless it's with the help of someone who knows the ropes - a 10-year-old kid. Directed by Adrian Grunberg Positive Points : Mel Gibson , Good storyline --Vazquez: Look, you're corrupt, we're corrupt. There's one difference. We're honest about it. --Driver: "The ugly American". I thought it was me until he"  keiju added this to a list 7 months, 1 week ago
