Benicio Del Toro and Steven Soderbergh defend their film.

Benicio Del Toro and director Steven Soderbergh have brushed off the critics of their new movie Guerrilla. They state that the film was meant to “p**s off” audiences.
The film, which depicts the rise and fall of Argentine revolutionary Ernesto ‘Che’ Guevara, came under fire in May at the Cannes Film Festival for its four-hour run time and controversial storyline.
But Steven Soderbergh has defended the $60 million project after a series of attacks from film critics.
And he insists its budget will be recouped by Spanish-speaking audiences, with the length of the film trimmed for its U.S. debut.
“If you make a movie like this and nobody’s p**sed off, you’re not doing your job. Che’s a very polarizing figure. Everybody’s got their own idea about him and about what a biographical film ought to be. The more people arguing about it the better.”
