Hot Damn! Best Review of Che Movie Yet!
Babalú Blog: an island on the net without a bearded dictator — Hot Damn! Best Review of Che Movie Yet! Sent to me from New York amiga, Marie Coccia.: "MEET Che Guevara. Just think of him as Jesus plus Abraham Lincoln with a touch of Moses and Dr. Doug Ross. After 4½ hours of watching Dr. Ernesto "Che" Guevara heal the sick, teach the illiterate, daze the women, execute the lawless, defeat the corrupt, uplift the peasantry and spew the sound bite, I was convinced there would be a scene in which he turned water to Bacardi." The rest here. Posted by Humberto at December 16, 2008 11:52 PM Comments Post a comment

Hagiocalypse Now [Dan Collins]
protein wisdom — MEET Che Guevara. Just think of him as Jesus plus Abraham Lincoln with a touch of Moses and Dr. Doug Ross. After 4½ hours of watching Dr. Ernesto “Che” Guevara heal the sick, teach the illiterate, daze the women, execute the lawless, defeat the corrupt, uplift the peasantry and spew the sound bite, I was convinced there would be a scene in which he turned water to Bacardi. You can’t spell cliché without “Che.” And as I endured this mad dream directed - or perhaps committed - by Steven Soderbergh, I wondered where I’d seen it all before. The booted stomping through the ...
