Che's depiction of guerrilla war tactics is so minutely detailed, it could provide an illuminating education to West Point cadets, or Taliban recruits. With about 80% of the two-part picture taking place in the Cuban or Bolivian jungle, it's the woodsiest war movie ever, and not so much a long march as the daily log of a sylvan slog...

There is a zero-percent chance of a pragmatic response from him."
