“Marny Eng’s and E.J. Foerster’s ‘Gringa’ falters from the outset with unnecessary cynicism. The film revolves around Marge (Jess Gabor), a bullied teenager’s quest to reconnect with her estranged father Jackson (Steve Zahn), now a contented surfer in Mexico. The emotional progression lacks depth, rapidly moving Marge into an effortless connection with her father. Despite the authentic chemistry between Gabor and Zahn, the screenplay struggles with character development and meaningful challenges, resulting in a narratively unsatisfying experience.
