Part 1, the attack on Neocolonialism, is the best part of the movie, pretty engrossing, even if you disagree with the politics of the movie.
Parts 2 and 3, less so. They start pretty interesting, with a lecture on Argentine's history (very biased in favor of Peronism, though).
But soon it becomes a call to arms for violent leftist revolution, and not a particularly riveting one. More like, lots of people saying the same thing over and over again. 5 years 4 months ago -

Not as painful to sit through as I had been prepared for. Those interested in the development of left-wing film, or in 20th-century Latin American history, will find enough to hold their attention, although that attention might start to flag during the second half of the four-hour running time. Most others will probably find it tough going from the start. 10 years 7 months ago
