An entertaining and well-crafted political satire that is definitely worth a look.

Though a lot of the dialogue would seem absurd even on daytime soap opera, the movie keeps coming up with scenes so arresting or eccentric you are aware of the wicked intelligence behind them.

Mostly, Cuba is boring. [24 Dec 1979]

Marvelous atmosphere and individual scenes, but not quite a movie. [31 Dec 1979, p.12]

By the time this atmospheric but thoroughly muddled story reaches its conclusion, the film has totally self-destructed. [31 Dec 1979, p.49]

Havana, Cuba, 1959. Lucky they print this on the screen, as it's the first and last coherent piece of information you can glean from Lester's political love story, which mentions neither politics nor love but plays out its actions against a background of both.
30
Cuba is a hollow, pointless non-drama.
