About Guevara, Garcia says, "Che has been romanticized over the years, but there is a darker side to his story. People wear his T-shirt like pop art. They don't know who he is. He looks like a rock star, but he executed a lot of people without trial or defense" ....

Andy Garcia won't be appearing in any Clooney movies anytime soon.

I love Andy Garcia as long as they STOP TRYING TO CAST HIM AS AN ITALIAN! Good God, when I saw him in Godfather III I wanted to take my own eyes out with a grapefruit spoon.

That said, I thought "Things to do In Denver" and that Arturo Sandoval movie he did for HBO ruled.

The left is already in a frenzy attacking this movie, as it shows the truth about fidel and che.

Gee, what's the left going to do? A Hollywood star ripping Che? What should they do with the Che t-shirts? So many decisions for the stars to make!

Garcia's acting ws the only high point of that film for me. Sophia Coppola was pathetic, and Al Pacino has become a Shatneresque parody of himself. Andy was cool, though.

Wynona Ryder was supposed to play Coppola's part, but she got injured or sick.

I don't know, he looks more Italian than Leonardo DiCaprio.

"Selling a Cuban story to Hollywood wasn't easy."

No, selling an anti-Castro story to Hollywood wasn't easy. A film showing the commie regime as a "paradise" (as braindead leftist Jack Nicholson called it) would've sold without delay.

I like Andy Garcia except I feel like he's choking when he delivers his lines.

This movie looks very worth seeing.

You are kidding me! Wynona still owes me $7.50 and two hours of my life for sitting through the horrendous Reality Bites.
