In 'Blood Father' Mel Gibson plays a divorced, ex con, tattoo artist two years sober, whose run away daughter Erin Moriarty shows up out of the blue, some dangerous men on her tail. Gibson both protects and reestablishs his relationship to said daughter and Moriarty and he play well off each other. The bad men after Erin are in the employee of a Mexican drug cartiel whose heir apperentDiago Luna, she shot while trying to keep him from executing another woman. This is old school action fun with Gibson demonstrating that, somehow, he has retained his old charm; a fine actor. Surprisingly enjoyable, though not exactly ground breaking. Micheal Parks monologes alone are worth seeing this for. ***
