Movie Haiku:In 1952, the young man destined to become controversial leftwing revolutionary “Che” Guevara traveled the length of South America with his friend Alberto. Film succeeds brilliantly as a travelogue with fabulous location shots of people and places set to a stirringly authentic soundtrack, but fails miserably as an insightful biopic.
