Slavoj Zizek drew some parallels between an adaptation of Coriolanus and that of Che Guevara as a revolutionary .
Slavoj Zizek argued that unlike preceding adaptations , Fiennes ' film portrayed Coriolanus without trying to rationalize his behavior , as a raw figure for the `` radical left '' , a figure who represents contempt for a decadent liberal democracy and the willingness to use violence to counter its latent imperialism in alliance with the oppressed , someone he compares to Che Guevara ( who justified himself as a revolutionary killing machine ) .
