 The Motorcycle Diaries

It is a travelogue, biography of two young friend's adventurous journey through South America, in Spanish with English subtitles.

Based on the books 'The Motorcycle Diaries' by Ernesto Che Guevara and 'Traveling With Che Guevara' by Alberto Granado, the movie deals with the real life story of a young Argentine man who became the revolutionary "Che", who was later murdered violently in Bolivia at a young age of 39.

In 1952, a 23 year old medical student, Ernesto "Che" Guevara (Gael Garcia Bernal) and his friend Alberto Granado (Rodrigo de la Serna) decide to travel across Argentina, Chile, Brazil and Peru, just for fun and adventure. They begin a 5,000 mile journey on a motorcycle. Starting from Buenos Aires, they continued their journey through Chile, Peru and Venezuela. Their trip was filled with mishaps and misadventures. As they went through the uncharted territories of South America, their fun seeking adventure becomes nerve wracking. Ernesto was angered by the poverty that he saw in many parts of the continent. He decides to fight for justice, for the poor and hapless people living in that part of the world. By the time they reached Caracas, young Ernesto was ready and set to become a revolutionary. When he started his fun filled journey, Ernesto had no idea that his destiny will take to a path far different from being a medical doctor.

Director Walter Salles narrates the story of "Che" with ease and emotion. He sticks to the truth of the South America's history. Some of the critics may argue that Salles made a whitewashed film by portraying a terrorist as a savior of the poor. Bernal does a great job as "Che". The transformation of Ernesto's life from a fun seeking young man to a socially conscious adult is very well portrayed. Rodrigo de la Serna as Granado gives a convincing performance. It is a delight to watch him.

Movie provides a tender and memorable insight into life of "Che", one of the famous crusader for justice in the modern world. It will make you think what "Destiny" can do to you. The Movie makes you appreciate what you have and makes you concerned that how many people in different parts of the world are deprived of simple necessities. But it is hard to say whether the theme is powerful enough to create many more revolutionaries to fight for justice in the world.

We rate this movie VERY GOOD..
