| Progressive message missed by many critics (by exantos-29940) |
| In my very amateur opinion the "professional" reviews I've read saying this movie has no point or subtext the reviewers are clearly not in possession of the ability to read between the lines. This is a satire pointing out the very real issues of how crooked wealthy, predominately white, capitalists in the U.S. use other countries to produce their drugs, take advantage of socio-economically disadvantaged folks to move their product and the use of predominately African American "middle managers" in the states to take the fall for them, both with the law and the various <more> |
| Fun and entertaining watch (by xperiance-459-406844) |
| Everything about this movie screams good time, you can even tell in the actors performances that they just enjoyed being on set.As I watched it I thought that it started off abit slow but come the ending everything just felt more than worth it.It was extremely entertaining being along this wild ride with the main character Harry, a well and likeable person you can't help but root for the entire filmSharlto colplay's performance is definitely a given too, love seeing him in films and this is certainly no exception, the villains Charlize Theron and Joel edgerton play are also <more> |
| It is what it is, and it's damn good at it! (by zoltan-saghy) |
| There's a lot happening in his movie and I'm surprised how well it is paced. Caught me right from the start and I enjoyed it all the way through. Casting is spot on, the characters are interesting, story is full of twists, I could go on and on... Go watch it! |
| I enjoyed it (by dkodgis-34389) |
| Look, it is a bit uneven but the other reviewers really do hit the corners with this movie. You can lose yourself in it for a few hours and just have a laugh here and there. David Oleyowo is talented. Here he bends his acting style to being poop on the highway of life, a man who decides he is not going to take it anymore. He does not Rambo it out; he figures out what he must do. He is a gentleman turned pragmatist. Sure the movie could be smoothed out a bit but give it a break; it's funny. Oleyowo can really be funny. The trailer suggests a brisk clip and no, the movie drags a bit here <more> |
| Great Movie (by Coogan-01) |
| I don't know why some of the reviews are so bad for this movie. I found it to be a very enjoyable dramatic comedy. If you're expecting side-splitting laughter, it's not that kind of movie. There are some very funny moments though. Well worth a watch.Coogan |
| Its fun to watch (by joelsimmons-83642) |
| Sometimes you just need a good entertaining movie to pass the day. Great writing, plot, and a bunch of OMG and WTF moments. This accomplished that very well. Entertaining all the way through. |
| how is this rated 6.0 on imdb? (by dudleyduclos) |
| This movie is definitely better than the 6.0 rating here. |
| Hilarious black comedy (by ginocox-206-336968) |
| Gringo 2018 is a black comedy with half a dozen tightly intertwined subplots, in which nearly everybody is out to deceive, betray, and/or cheat everybody else. The two innocents in this coterie of scoundrels are Harold David Oyelowo, O.B.E. and Sunny Amanda Seyfried . Harold might more aptly be yclept Matt, as he allows everybody walk all over him, secure in the conviction that good will prevail and the just will be rewarded - although these convictions will be severely tested. All of the plots revolve about Richard Joel Edgerton , a self-centered narcissist with a seriously defective <more> |
| Solid entertainment. (by Takethispunch) |
| Mild-mannered U.S. businessman Harold Soyinka finds himself at the mercy of backstabbing colleagues, local drug lords and a black ops mercenary after traveling to Mexico. Crossing the line from law-abiding citizen to wanted criminal, Harold fights to survive an increasingly dangerous situation that raises the question -- is he out of his depth or two steps ahead? |
