"The film opens with a getaway driver (Mel Gibson) and a wounded accomplice dressed as clowns fleeing from American police toward the Mexican border. The driver crashes through the border fence, whereupon he is arrested by corrupt Mexican police officers Vasquez (Mario Zaragoza) and Romero (Gerardo Teracena). When they find over $2 million in the car, they incarcerate him in El Pueblito prison under false charges, keep the cash for themselves, and cremate the accomplice, who by then has died. As one of the only Americans incarcerated there, the driver becomes known as "the Gringo".
An interesting film from Mel Gibson with everything you need in it, good acting, action, sex, etc. It is such a good movie I wasn't expecting it. I enjoyed the supporting cast especially the kid who provided the gringo with some much needed support. The story was good, Mel Gibson also co-wrote it which is interesting as well. I enjoyed seeing the story develop, it even got better as it went on. If you are a Mel Gibson or an action film fan you will enjoy this movie.
3.2/5
