It sees the veteran movie-star back doing what he does best; swearing, shooting and blowing stuff up.

Check it out below…

It follows a career criminal (Gibson) nabbed by Mexican authorities and placed in a tough prison where he learns to survive with the help of a 9-year-old boy. The movie harks back to the Australian star's renegade characters in the likes of 'Lethal Weapon', 'Payback' and 'Maverick'.

This makes us glad as we sat though 'The Beaver'.

'How I Spent My Summer Vacation' is due to be released in the UK on 11 May 2012.
