What to Watch This Weekend: Gringo

What to Watch This Weekend: Gringo

With cable, Netflix, and internet options, finding the best thing to watch during your downtime is difficult. Instead of flipping through menus all weekend and settling on nothing, turn to What to Watch This Weekend, a series in which we give you our pick for the best new show or movie available.

While it won’t find itself in contention for any awards, Gringo, an Amazon Original released today, is a fun, somewhat dark comedy full of big name stars like Charlize Theron, Joel Edgerton, David Oyelowo, and Amanda Seyfried. The film follows kindhearted businessman Harold Soyinka (David Oyelowo) as he ends up a criminal with a target on his back after getting involved with a Mexican drug cartel. Charlie Theron is the star, in our opinion, as she shines in this comedic role. If you have Amazon Prime, give Gringo a watch this weekend.
