Review of El Gringo

El Gringo (2012)
5/10
Could Possibly be Worse

Warning: Spoilers
So, someone decided to remake Desperado but use a cast with no charisma. You'd think that would be a bad movie and you'd be pretty accurate.

The main character was annoying from the very beginning. He burns a man alive in the truck of a car, but he saves a dog. Well, guess that made him even. Then, he comes to a town where the residents either hate him for no reason or fall in love with him for no reason. The movie wasn't helped by the fact that the gringo looked like Ben Stiller.

Much of the movie was spent trying to duplicate parts of Robert Rodriquez movies, including a sex scene that was shot almost identically to that in the movie Desperado. The woman is pretty, but no Salma Hayak.

Avoid this movie.
