Gringo – 3 out of 5

There’s a lot of talent in the film Gringo and I think that is the number one thing that drew me to this movie.  I saw a preview for it and it looked fun but having the likes of Joel Edgerton, Charlize Theron, David Oyelowo and Sharlto Copley in the film was what really made me want to check this feature out.  Overall, the movie is fairly decent but, ultimately, the thing that was the best part about it is what brought me to it to begin with.

Oyelowo isn't impressed with your memes.

Co-presidents of a Chicago-based pharmaceutical company; Richard Rusk (Edgerton) and Elaine Markinson (Theron), are preparing for a merger but have to travel to Mexico in order to stop an employee from dealing with a local drug lord.  As this is going, their employee; Harold Soyinka (Oyelowo), discovers that Rusk and Markinson are going to fire him when the merger goes through.  In return, Harold decides to pretend to be kidnapped in an attempt to get his hands on a large ransom.  Rusk decides to send his mercenary brother; Mitch (Copley), to Mexico in order to retrieve him.  Before Harold knows what is happening, the drug cartel kidnaps him for real and now must use the mercenary hunting him to escape.

Fun Fact:  Joel Edgerton's brother directed this.

Gringo has a great idea, a terrific cast and isn’t afraid to have a little fun along the way.  However, the film is hampered slightly by a pace that never really feels like it has any “get up and go.”  When the film starts, it’s doing a fairly decent job at establishing the stakes as its beginning moments involves a fantastic scene that really sets the stage and got me invested quickly.  Sadly, though, the film feels like it puts on the brakes as it backtracks in the story a little bit and then takes a long time to set up the sequence you just watched.  After that, the film feels like it is just gingerly going from point-to-point and is in no real rush to hit its main point of conflict.  Then, chaotically when it gets into the third act, the pacing goes crazy and feels like it is on a mad rush to wrap things up.  It made the film feel very uneven and made it a tad difficult to get completely invested into Harold’s journey and didn’t come close to how strong the opening moments of the film were.

That's a lot of talent at one table.

The final element that held Gringo back for me was the seemingly superfluous nature of the film’s B-story.  Amanda Seyfried and Harry Treadaway play the couple Sunny and Miles and their story never feels truly connected to Harold’s.  Miles is a drug mule and has a backhanded attachment to what is going on but never do these characters feel like they belong or are even needed for the story.  Above everything else, their inclusion feels more like a speed bump that slows the plot down.

Honestly, you could edit these two out and it really wouldn't change the story
at all.


Despite the story issues this film has, the feature looks great and the performances are fantastic.  Edgerton and Theron are so good at playing the asshole corporate types and ride the line of being fun to watch and fun to hate on.  Sharlto Copley has a cool and totally badass aura about him as the mercenary Mitch—which really shows his range as a performer because this isn’t the first time he’s played a tough guy and be believable as one.  Copley has quite the spectrum as he can play the dweeb in one film and a badass in another and everything in-between and pull them all off.  Finally, David Oyelowo’s incredibly strong and sympathetic performance as Harold helps carry the film effectively, especially when the story has its dragging and mundane moments.

Copley is definitely one of my inspirations when I perform.

Gringo is a film with a workable idea and an amazing cast but the story held this one back for me.  With characters that felt unnecessary and a pace that felt inconsistent, the movie ultimately didn’t deliver on the potential that it held.  It was never boring or bad but it never got as interesting or as good as it could have been.
