Sun Media's Bruce Kirkland describes Benicio's

performance in The Argentine and Guerrilla as follows:

 

"In the role, Del Toro channels Che's mannerisms,

his iconic piercing look and his revolutionary zeal

in an astonishingly realistic manner... Cool enough

that Del Toro's Che ranks as one of the

great performances in film in 2008."
