Review of Che: Part One

Che: Part One (2008)
4/10
Couldn't waste my time
11 March 2010
I always say that I can tell whether a movie is going to be great or bad just by watching the first 5 mins.

Well, this one seriously failed that test. Most of the five mins was spent on a map of Cuba set to some god awful music with just place names indicated that we are gonna forget immediately.

As the movie progressed, even though I longed to find out something about this guy, I wasn't getting much at all.

So much time wasted on pointless shots and dialog of people saying "hi" to each other in Spanish and getting sick.

As I'm getting old and didn't care about a single one of the boring characters I had to turn it off. I made it about 50 mins I think. Nothing happened, nothing even looked like it was gonna happen. I'm too old to waste X hours on this drivel, so as usual I head to IMDb to check out the ratings.

Much to my surprise its a high rating, and there are pages of good reviews. Only when I got to the last few pages did I find people who agree with me that this film is drivel.

So, come on, all you others you think it sucks, please speak up now :-)

Guess I'll have to check out Wikipedia to find out what this guy really did. It'll be much quicker.
