Wow, Del Toro looks just like him. I agree with Comrage and Bill that there are plenty of people who romanticize him and are completely unaware of the horrible things that he did, but its all about perspective. I don't support his actions nor do I support the government that he helped establish but I sure as hell would take communism over a dictatorship run by someone like Fulgencio Batista. Every revolution unfortunately has innocent blood shed, and it all depends on how your society choses to interpret history. We don't talk about how innocent non-military British dock workers were killed during our Revolutionary War, just as I'm sure the current Cuban government doesn't want to focus on all the horrible things that Guevera did. It's all a matter of perspective, and since we (the US) come from the country whose agency helped have him killed, our perspective tends to dwell on all the terrible things he did (except for all the ignorant retarted hot topic kids who don't know a real thing about him). That being said, I don't really like Guevera, I'm just saying that everyone who has ever did anything on a scale as large as what Guevera did didn't do it without hurting someone who didn't deserve it.

Ever since I have read the John lee Anderson book Che and the book Guerilla Warfare I have been waiting for a movie. The Doc*mentary El Che investigating a legend is really good.

Che Guevara was a visionary, but once you get blood on your hands, It doesn't wash off.

"The Epic True Story," huh? So they're gonna show the fact of how he joined Fidel Castro, and helped bring about Communism in Cuba?
I have no liking for the government he rebelled against, but I sure as hell don't like the one he brought about either.
If this movie glorifies this criminal, it will not be one to see for me.
And like ikilledbill2wice said, if this is to sell more of those stupid shirts at Hot Topic, it will be even worse. LOL XD
