100One thing few will disagree on is the quality of the film's acting, especially by Gael García Bernal as Guevara and Rodrigo de la Serna as his friend. Both effortlessly embody the footloose, sometimes feckless quality of this "On the Road"-style adventure.

80There is a balancing act at work here that sometimes makes the film seem too careful, but I found it a lovely and supremely moving experience, a haunting symphony in a minor key if not a knock-your-socks-off masterpiece.

80Subtle, funny and touching. Its not like a blow-by-blow Birth of a Hero type of film. The script is near perfect and the acting is spot on.
-
60Lovely to look at but insipid.
