    #Watched Get the Gringo (2012 Adrian Grunberg) I really enjoy this film. It was a weird time for Gibson, prior to his "rehabilitation". For some reason Gibson's racism and xenophobia has never really extended to Latin Americans. Remember when you could watch Maverick and not feel bad about it?

    I have always liked Mel Gibson and I really do not care how drunk or politically incorrect he might be. I still like to see him in movies and this is a surprisingly good movie. The movie had a proper theatrical premier in most countries except USA where it went straight to VOD which I find a bit surprising. It is a lot better movie than much of the stuff that are shown in theaters. I suspect the politically correct hypocrites had something to do with that. Personally, I found this movie…
