Che: Part Two (directed by Steven Soderbergh) is a sober, historically rooted drama about Ernesto “Che” Guevara’s 1966–67 guerrilla campaign in Bolivia. The film is notable for its battlefield violence and grim aftermath scenes — including bloody gunshot wounds and a disturbing moment involving a boy’s infected eye — which is why it sits outside a standard family rating.

Sex and nudity in Che: Part Two
None. IMDb Parents Guide notes no sex or nudity reported.
Violence and gore in Che: Part Two
Strong and often realistic battlefield violence appears throughout the film. IMDb Parents Guide flags multiple gunfights and on-screen people shown bloody after being shot; there is also a notably disturbing close-up where something is removed from a boy’s bloody, infected eye. There are repeated ambushes, wounded combatants, and images of corpses and dying men — not cartoonish, but rooted in a documentary-like aesthetic.
Language in Che: Part Two
Moderate. Characters use Spanish profanity including several uses of the equivalent of "fuck," along with other coarse language in moments of stress. Language is not constant but recurs in heated exchanges during combat and interrogations.
Drugs, alcohol, and smoking in Che: Part Two
Moderate. The film shows drinking at a social gathering and characters smoke cigarettes on camera; there are also passing mentions of cocaine. These appear as realistic background elements rather than glamorized drug use.
Mature themes in Che: Part Two
The film centrally explores war, political violence, death, and the collapse of an idealistic revolution in Bolivia. It treats the moral ambiguity and human cost of guerrilla warfare in a sober, often bleak way — characters die, units fragment, and the movie dwells on loss and failure. Parents should expect sustained mature themes rather than light-handed historical biography.
