Rolling Stone
A mesmerizing look at an asthmatic, rich-boy medical student in the act of discovering his insurgent spirit.

New York Magazine (Vulture)
The film is a deeply felt and beautifully acted hagiography.

Variety
This intelligently made picture is artful but not arty, political without being didactic.
80
Film Threat
Subtle, funny and touching. It’s not like a blow-by-blow “Birth of a Hero” type of film. The script is near perfect and the acting is spot on.
70
The Hollywood Reporter
A smartly scoped story of great personal growth and transformation. It's not hard to see the personality/political basis for Che's later revolutionary actions.
