Let me start saying that I'm against any kind of political propaganda, no matter which side. This was such a wasted opportunity. It could have been one of the best films of all times. Unfortunately is mostly going to be remembered for it's visual achievement.
The story is simplistic and declamatory, right in your face, up the point of caricature.
That said, the film has amazing moments. Havana has never being filmed like that again. The camera movements have inspired Scorcese (Goodfellas) and Paul T Anderson (Boogie Nights) Still they don't surpass this, which was done 40 years ago.
This is what cinema should be in the formal side. When are we going to get more films that look like this?
