Thoughts on Sodenbergh's Che Pt. 1 & 2?

[EvaUnit02]

I'm currently contemplating seeing a festival screening of Stephen Sodenbergh's Che films, within the next week. The problem is both parts are only being screened back to back (with a 15 min intermission), making the combined running time ~4hr 35min.

What are people's thoughts on these films and are they sort of thing that benefit from the unique cinema experience?

Thanks in advance.

Did you go Eva?

Both were given ridiculously small release windows around my area, so I couldn't see them but I'm definitely picking the BDs up.

No, I didn't go in the end. I'll probably get them on BD.
