Picking up from his part in the successful installation of the Castro government in Cuba, Guevara (Benicio Del Toro) has moved around the South American continent a bit before ending up in Bolivia where he and a few faithful followers decide to mobilise the miners in the south of the country against the leadership of President Barrientos. What's clear fairly quickly here is that his forces are smaller, much less well equipped and fighting a foe far more adept at his kind of warfare. This is much more of a documentary-style presentation from Steven Soderbergh and I found it really quite a dry chronology that portrayed Guevara as a sort of serial revolutionary. A man of principal, yes, but also one who increasingly became unwilling to consider that his might not be the only way to solve a problem. Also, his antagonist in Bolivia also knew well how to engender support from the "campaniles", many of whom had elected him in the first place. There appears to be much more speculation in this, too, and I found it struggled to maintain it's momentum as at times it bordered on the look of a spaghetti western. It illustrates well the gap between rich and poor, but here his philosophy is not so clearly defined - it's as if he always needs some sort of cause, regardless of his appreciation of what these people actually wanted or needed. The acting is really neither here nor there, and the dialogue suffers from audio issues when set amidst the dense jungle environment. I think this could easily have been condensed down and added to Part One. Interesting, but not great, and it doesn't really tell us very much about the man at all.
