Movies To See This Weekend

9th March 2018

Last week I recommended some exceptional movies to watch. If you are yet to see them, I will list them below:

Royal Hibiscus Hotel
Memoirs Of Four
Crushed
Disguise

Gringo

Now, Gringo is a very intriguing comedy movie with a lot of gun-blazing, heart-stopping action (I don’t mean that last part literally, of course) and plenty of drama. It tells a story of a US-based Nigerian businessman, Harold Soyinka, played by David Oyelowo, who fights for his survival in dangerous situations after he is caught between his treacherous colleagues, hard-boiled drug lords and a gun-wielding black ops mercenary when he travels to Mexico. From starting off as an honest, mild-mannered business man, Soyinka quickly becomes a wanted criminal. The movie’s release date is Friday, 9th March(that’s today!) and will be showing in selected cinemas across the country.
