4/4  Remember that Ernesto was, in first place, a Dr.
Just as I can think about Irreversible as misoginist propaganda, people has the right to think that this is comunist one. Well. I don't think so. Guevara's persona is one of the most important persons in history, and that's undeniable (pls... (read full)

3.5/4  Great movie, propaganda only for shallowheads
This was a great movie (both parts) portraying the life and death of Ernesto "Che" Guevara. I can only feel sorry for people calling it a "communist propaganda film" (it's way more complex) as they're obviously too drawn into american impe... (read full)

1/4  Communist proganda film
A communist pushing film, not because it shows Che's story but because it just skips over the part about his nice executions he was involved in. Yes there are the U.N mentioning but it is inter spliced with an execution of just two bad reb... (read full)

5/5 More Balance
  by M. Valentin
BLAH BLAH BLAH... Liberal... BLAH BLAH BLAH
American... BLAH BLAH... Sick.
I have no opinion on a movie I have yet to see.
All I know is that there are often movies about serial killers and rapists, yet no protest.
Then, a movie is made about someone who wanted to better his country and it's EVIL.
Quit watching Fox News and come up with your own opinion.
Before you respond you should know I have no political preference, so whatever you say won't matter.
Anyway I am sure I heard it from one of the other robots you run around with.
God Bless America!


5/5 Balance
  by Edward Burch (Champaign, IL USA)
I have not yet seen this film. I plan to buy the DVD when it comes out--at which point I may end up changing my rating. But for now, I simply wanted to function as a counter to the 1-star reviews which offered no analysis of the film whatsoever. Their tirade seemed to be, in effect: "This film is about Che. I don't like Che. Therefore, this film is bad."

I tend to like Soderbergh's work, but I will withhold judgment until I've actually viewed the film, and can put together a sentence or two that a) avoids the usage of meaningless epithets such as "America haters," and b) demonstrates a thoughtful engagement with the film--even if I have any issues with it.

1/5 FILTH!
  by Jason W. Murphy (APO, AE United States)
Filth for America hating Liberals. Cuba is such a wonderful place thanks to this monster. Don't believe me, just ask all the boat people.

1/5 Sick, Sick, Sick
  by Michael P. Walsh (Jiangmen, China)
What kind of sick mind could produce such a piece of hagiography? Why does this sociopath continue to exert such a hold on the maiden-aunt sensibilities of North American liberals? Nothing short of a perverse taste for vicarious violence or a closeted taste for rough trade can explain it.
