If you watch this movie with an open, unbiased heart you will surely feel the way Guevara did-to be useful in some way...to help and move close to humanity.
The dialogues in this film are poetic and touch you. This is not a tale of heroic feats..its about two lives(Guevara and Alberto) running parallel for a while with common aspirations and similar dreams..What they had in common was restlessness and impassioned spirits that yearned to leave "civilization" behind and move closer to LAND. They wished to bid adieu (even if for a while) to the wretched life, uninspiring lectures, papers and med xms(Guevara was training to be a doc)..
Guevara was a normal youth..who wished just to be laid in every country of Latin America..He had a beautiful and doting GF...but something drew him away from her with his heart swinging like a pendulum between her and the streets...Nevertheless as their journey progressed..and they finally crossed the border of Argentina into a foreign land, his feelings split into two...a melancholy for the whats left behind and excitement for the unfamiliar to come....The youthful lustful heart finally gave away to the humane self...The tragic and haunting faces of the downtrodden all over Latin America agonized him..Human race seemed strange to him. The Incas knew astronomy, brain surgery and maths...the Spanish-gunpowder..the results we know..the story was the same even in Guevara's time and maybe even now...the common people knew arts, handicrafts..the niche ways of living..the rich and powerful-money and force..The poor have been made shelterless in their own land..The same story all over the world...
This captivating film about Guevara's transformation in course a journey across Latin America is a must watch for everybody. I am sure you will love it. The acting is too realistic. Watch the movie, if nothing moves you atleast the scenic beauty of the Latin American landscapes will....
Rating 8/10

I really loved the photography and camerawork. And I loved the scene where they actually synced the sound levels in the tracks from left to right as the motorbike moved from left to right of the screen.
