Viggo Mortensen (above left, with Jodie Whittaker) is a novelist and academic in pre-WWII Germany who allows self-interest to blind him to the full extent of Nazi evil. Though well-intentioned, this cautionary tale lacks dramatic oomph. (Not rated)
CHE Shown in two parts that total more than 4 1/2 hours and presented almost entirely in Spanish (with subtitles), this arid biopic about revolutionary Ernesto "Che" Guevara (Benicio Del Toro, above) proves a tough slog. Steven Soderbergh (Ocean's Eleven) directed, but Che too often plays like an Army training film. (R)
