Get the Gringo (2012)

The Gringo (called the Driver) (Mel Gibson) is convicted and sent to a Mexican prison for stealing money from a crime boss and breaking across the Mexican border. As he learns his way through the town-like prison, he meets and befriends a 10 year old boy whose liver is sought after by Javi, an inmate "boss" who controls rackets and privileges within the prison, due to their rare blood type. It is up to the titular gringo to save the boy's life and the life of the boy's mother, and also break out of prison.

IMDB Rating: 7.1/10

In his personal life Mel Gibson may still be sleeping it off in Hollywood's sin bin, but cinematically he returns here to what he does best, playing a funny, psychopathic, sharp-thinking outsider similar to Riggs the crazy cop he impersonated in the Lethal Weapon pictures. He is, however, very much on the wrong side of the law in How I Spent My Summer Vacation, a criminal loose cannon banged up in "El Pueblito".

This city-sized jail of some 6,000 inhabitants, including the families of the prisoners and various hangers-on, was built outside Tijuana as an experiment in humane imprisonment and was closed down in 2002 after becoming a version of hell. The dazzling re-creation of this prison and the way Gibson's man-without-a-name manipulates it makes this variant on the spaghetti western appealing.

The near incomprehensible plot involving his dealing with crooked cops and businessman on both sides of the Rio Grande is of little interest except as an excuse for fights, chases and the anti-hero's redemption. Most of the cast is Mexican, but there are walk-on roles for a snarling Peter Stormare and Bob Gunton, the latter no doubt chosen to recall his appearance as prison warden in The Shawshank Redemption.

Get the Gringo (also known as How I Spent My Summer Vacation) is a 2012 American action film directed by Adrian Grunberg, produced, co-written by and starring Mel Gibson. The film has received largely positive reviews, gaining an 80% 'Fresh' rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
