The United States has demonized Castro for decades. Even when he's been dead for years, ask a random US American who Castro was and they either a.) don't know who he is or b.) will say he was that "evil dictator" who oppressed Cuba.
Fidel Castro was not only greater than any political leader the US has ever produced, he also did more to help the people of his country than any US political leader has for theirs. And even if you assume the worst about him that VoCMF says is true, every US president would still be guilty of more crimes against humanity than him by far (other than those presidents who like, died after a couple months in office)
The Che movie is pretty cool. The style wasn't my cup of tea but I was just so into the subject matter that it didn't really matter.
(To me, the style reminded me of Das Boot... except of course that movie is kinda pro-fash so obviously it sucks. I just mean that style of war film that seems to sorta splice together scenes from that are only loosely connected to each other, if that makes sense)

We need a Fidel Castro biopic, just portraying him as the :gigachad-hd: he was
I know it wouldn't work on everyone but the Che movie helped me on my path :shrug-outta-hecks:
