An absolute delight with audacious dialogue that demanded an emotional response, this film was mainly carried by bold and fearless writing.

According to metacritic.com the film received generally good reviews, and rottentomatoes.com granted the film 98 fresh tomatoes to 48 rotten ones. Good stuff. A-/ B+.

The film focused chiefly on Che Guevara's leadership position in the guerrillas as the revolution gained form and momentum. From the meeting with Fidel Castro, and the other original plotters of the Cuban revolution, Che unravels to outline the events that transpired in great detail. One of which was the clear sequential depiction of the strife of the guerrillas in their struggle to successfully execute their insurrection as they confronted near insuperable logistical issues while being vigilant of the Cuban army.
The production of this film was absurdly great. It was very detailed, but the location contributed heavily to its general production value. With only a 61.5 million dollar budget, the production was impressive. And on that note, so was the casting. Del Toro was great as usual, but Demian Bichir was riveting as Fidel Castro. He nailed it.
As great as the casting and or the production was, the film was interesting but it was not grossly engaging. I did not feel an emotional connection with the revolution, and I also did not feel the sense of desperation the men felt as they began to go hungry in the jungles. This film was acted and produced well; it was slow and interesting, but I was not helplessly entangled. According to metacritic.com the film received generally favorable reviews, and rottentomatoes.com granted the film 47 fresh tomatoes to 30 rotten ones thus far. This film gets a C+.

However, after a incident involving Viktor's daughter Sonja, Lucian would loose that privilege.
For the most part, this film was entertaining. The story was not extraordinary, but it held my interest enough not to classify it as boring. Contrasted with the previous two, this film's story was seemingly not as complex, in that, it was not multifaceted, but linear.
Although it was difficult to see many of the fight scenes clearly (perhaps because they were cut too often) , the action scenes were good, but they were missing a certain flair. Moving on, the production was off the charts with the Gothic costumes, castles, and weapons. Visually, these films are always amazing to watch. According to metacritic.com the film earned generally mixed reviews, and rottentomatoes.com granted this film 16 fresh tomatoes to 21 rotten ones thus far. this film was entertaining, it gets a C+.

This film looks interesting, but Lion's Gate releases really disturbing films. Well if people like me keep paying to see these disturbing films, it is unlikely Lion's Gate will stop releasing such films.
In contrast to the cheesy special effects of the 1985 release, this film could be exciting with the graphics technology available today, especially in the design of the monsters. Hopefully the film's value will not be driven entirely by special effects, but also by a gripping story. Rose Mcgowen will be Red Sonja, but who will play Arnold's role?
