Liam D The start of an two part saga. There are some good elements to the film but it’s overlong for it’s own sake Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/19/24 Full Review The H steady, documentary like biography Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/02/23 Full Review r b This was a very interesting and well-told story of the Che Guevera, and the rise of the Cuban revolution. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member It lacks some elements, but the part of the story we get to watch is good. Benicio del Toro's acting is superb, and the rest of the cast also did a great job. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Che: Part One and Che: Part Two are outstanding two-part biographical films the world must know the title character and history. Steven Soderbergh did an amazing job directing Che: Part One and Che: Part Two. The two-part film is his second biographical film and also his first and only non-english film. Benicio del Toro did an excellent job to both producing the film as well as portraying Ernesto "Che" Guevara. I really love the opening overture sequences as seen in part one and part two. Che is my favorite biographical film. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review dave s Combined, the two parts of Steven Soderbergh's Che run for well over four hours. What could have been a great film about Ernesto ‘Che' Guevara is instead two films (part one in Cuba, part two in Bolivia) that are merely decent. The primary problem is, of course, the length, as Soderbergh sometimes seems to lose sight of the fact that there is a fine line between compelling drama and the sight of men in fatigues endlessly tromping around in the jungle. The films also ignore the less glorious aspects of Che's character, totally ignoring the four year period after the Cuban Revolution when he ran the Santa Clara prison and executed a countless number of political prisoners. Despite this, the film is beautifully shot and features a remarkable performance by Benicio Del Toro. Check it out, but be patient.
