Che Part 1

I was looking forward to this movie starring the amazing Benicio Del Toro and directed by one of the most intriguing directors of modern cinema - Steven Soderbergh. The film is shot in colour and b/w showing Che the soldier and Che the politician. Some of it is amazing such as the battle sequence at the end which reminded me of Ken Loach's film about the Spanish civil war, Land and Freedom. I have to admit that some of the film was hard to follow in terms of the many characters and it also lacked some od Soderbergh's usual style. Overall though the film is held together by the stunning central performance of Del Torro.
