Ten den pro Portera (Mel Gibson) nebyl jedním z nejlepších. Nejdřív se mu podaří ukrást slušný balík peněz, který by mu stačil na báječné doživotní prázdniny strávené na pláži s dostatkem vína, žen a zpěvu. Ale pak už se mu situace poněkud vymyká z rukou. Dostává se do šílené honičky s pohraniční stráží, na jejímž konci končí jeho auto na kapotě těsně za mexickými hranicemi. Pak už je zadržen mexickými úřady a po peprné výměně názorů je vržen do podivně drsného a nebezpečného světa zvaného El Pueblito, což rozhodně není pětihvězdový hotel, který si představoval pro svou zaslouženou dovolenou. Je to místo, které je symbolem násilí, korupce a promiskuity.
Režie: Adrian Grünberg

    An over the stop action thriller in which Mel Gibson shines.
  • mickerdoo27. května 2026
    A unique setting with just enough angles on the plot to make it work. Balmore was well cast. Very Gibson centered. Heredia was good.

    Good story line, almost like a budget payback, look past the low budget effects and you have a good little film, well worth a watch.

    Get the Gringo is one of those late-career Mel Gibson vehicles that often flies under the radar, but for those who catch it, it’s a reminder of just how strong a screen presence Gibson can be when given the right material. Coming not long after his much-publicised fall from grace, it marked one of his first major headline roles in the post-DUI chapter of his career, and it plays directly to his strengths. Directed by Adrian Grunberg, the film is a slick, stylish, and confidently paced thriller that makes excellent use of Gibson’s trademark blend of dry comedy and tough-guy action. His unnamed “Driver” is a morally ambiguous antihero—a thief with a sardonic wit and a knack for survival—who lands in a bizarre, sprawling Mexican prison that feels like a society within itself. This unique setting gives the film both atmosphere and novelty, setting it apart from the more generic thrillers of the period. The plot itself is solid without being overly complex. It leans on familiar beats—corruption, double-crosses, desperate survival—but it’s executed with enough confidence and wit to feel fresh. The supporting characters are well realised, particularly the young boy with whom Gibson’s character forms an unlikely bond, which adds heart to a film that might otherwise be all grit and gunfire. The villains are suitably menacing without tipping into caricature, and the layered world of the prison keeps the narrative engaging throughout. Stylistically, Get the Gringo has the energy and swagger of Gibson’s earlier action films while incorporating a more mature edge. Grunberg stages the action cleanly and with flair, but he also allows for quieter moments where Gibson’s sardonic commentary drives the film forward. It’s not groundbreaking by any means, but it knows what kind of movie it wants to be—and it delivers that with style and confidence. In many ways, the film plays like a rougher, more world-weary cousin to Gibson’s earlier antihero roles in Payback, or even Lethal Weapon. The same mix of charm, wit, and danger is there, but this time with a harder, more cynical edge that reflects both the character’s circumstances and Gibson’s own evolving screen persona. Get the Gringo stands as a reminder of Gibson’s enduring talents as a leading man. While it never set out to reinvent the genre, it’s top-drawer work within its field: a sharp, entertaining, and well-crafted action thriller that plays to its star’s unique charisma. For those with a soft spot for Gibson, and his unique blend of action and humour, it’s a film that more than earns its cult appreciation.
