Director: Steven Soderbergh Year: 2008 Language: English Country: America

The second part of Soderbergh's look at the life of Che Guevara follows Geuvara's expedition to Bolivia during the mid-60's where he attempted to bring revolution to the country. The film is a slow burner, spending most of the 2hr 15min run time following Che and his recruits about in the Bolivian countryside, not doing all that much.

That is not to say it's boring, the scenery, pacing and acting are all excellent and the film is visually good-looking.

Again, I think I would have got more out of it if I had known more about Che Guevara before watching the film, but even without knowledge of the man it's still well made and interesting.
