Get the Gringo (Payback 2?)

Today's double feature is a bit darker and  mean spirited than usual - but in that, you know, good way.

Get the Gringo (2012) is so reminiscent of 1999's Payback that it might as well be its sequel. 

Both star Mel Gibson as the anti-hero who's relieved of his recently stolen loot. Mel attempts to get it back. Gringo has a corrupt Mexican prison, whereas Payback has the mob. 

Both have some voice-over narration by Mel. 

Sometimes it's fun to root for the bad-ass bad guy. Especially when his enemies are worse. And both films deliver.

I honestly think Payback is a little better - it's filmed in Chicago, its cast is better, less subtitles to read, and better... Well, I don't want to give away any spoilers. So I'd suggest renting this first and if you like it see Gringo.
