Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 01/27/2009 Starring: Gael Garcia Bernal Mia Maestro Run time: 127 minutes Rating: R Amazon.com: The beauty of the South American landscape and of Gael Garcia Bernal (Y Tu Mama Tambien, Bad Education) gives The Motorcycle Diaries a charisma that is decidedly apolitical. But this portrait of the young Che Guevara (later to become a militant revolutionary) is half buddy-movie, half social commentary--and while that may seem an unholy hybrid, under the guidance of Brazillian director Walter Salles (Central Station) the movie is quietly passionate. Guevara and his friend Alberto Granado (Rodrigo de la Serna, a lusty and engaging actor) set off from Buenos Aires, hoping to circumnavigate the continent on a leaky motorcycle. They end up travelling more by foot, hitchhiking, and raft, but their experience of the land and the people affects them profoundly. No movie could affect an audience the same way, but The Motorcycle Diaries gives a soulful glimpse of an awakening social conscience, and that's worth experiencing. --Bret Fetzer Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Fantastic movie, but after some research behind it, only then can your eyes be truly opened.I write this as a 20-year-old American college student who watched this movie in her Spanish class without even knowing who Ernesto "Che" Guevara was. The movie itself was really quite good. I felt very sympathetic towards Ernesto and Alberto; the way they started out just having a good time and being moved so much by the indigenous people they met along the way. I felt very connected to them. Really, it's a touching movie and makes you feel very empathetic towards the world, in general.

Beware of that before buying it ;) Rating: - Oveglorified PsychopathLet's see . . . what did Che Guevara do with his life? Oh, yeah, that's right, he killed people. That's all. He just killed a lot of people. That . . . is . . . all. But . . . because he killed a lot of people in the name of Communism AND he hated America all the liberals/leftists have overglorified and overrated him. Just like they once did with Josef Stalin. Rating: - che guevaraesta pelicula era muy bueno porque los actores han hecho un bueno trabajo. la pelicula mostrado muchas paises be latina america. tambien, la pelicula mostrado muchos partes de la vida de ernesto guevara. el che guevara el mundo conoce es muy diferente de el che guevara este pelicula. si quieres aprender mas sobre la vida de che guevara, ves este pelicula. Rating: - Beautifully DoneThis is a powerful story and I think helped me understand more about Che Guevara. When you see his deep passion for the people and dedication to "the least of these," you can see more how he became a revolutionary. Even though he ended up caught up in violence, you can see how his heart began in the right place. Beautiful cinematography, and Gael Garcia Bernal does a wonderful job as Che, with just the right mix of intensity and innocence. Browse for similar items by category:
