It's incredible how much 80's music can make a movie great.

Tony Montana: What you lookin' at? You all a bunch of fuckin' assholes. You know why? You don't have the guts to be what you wanna be? You need people like me. You need people like me so you can point your fuckin' fingers and say, "That's the bad guy." So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie. Me, I don't have that problem. Me, I always tell the truth. Even when I lie. So say good night to the bad guy! Come on. The last time you gonna see a bad guy like this again, let me tell you. Come on. Make way for the bad guy. There's a bad guy comin' through! Better get outta his way!

A movie I only knew for its chainsaw scene, and as it turns, for having the same ending as Grant Theft Auto - Vice City. This is the movie that comes out every few years, about the rise and fall of a big criminal, a kind of corrupt American dream, but Scarface is no Godfather, or Goodfellas, or even a Wolf of Wall Street. It's much too obvious for that. It's garish and noisy and vulgar. Al Pacino doesn't so much chew the scenery as devour it, and it does nothing to change my basic opinion of Oliver Stone (who wrote the screenplay) as a sensationalism peddler. Memorable scenes, sure, but Scarface is rather soulless and empty. And that score/soundtrack! Pee-yew! An 80s movie through and through, it's as carbon-dated as a fossil. If someone were to change the music to something more timeless, more traditionally Cuban for example, it would actually improve the film a hundred fold.

Why do people use the word overrated? People rate things best on how good they feel the movie/game/book etc is. All the art forms are so subjective that words like overrated suggest arrogance because of how subjective art is.

Still trying to understand what people like about this movie. No where near the epic gangster movies like Godfather or Goodfellas.

I put this one off for years because it didn't appear to be up my alley. Boy was I right. The performances are WAY over the top, the music was absolutely grating, and the story was absolutely absurd. How did DePalma think this was a tribute to Howard Hawks and Ben Hecht? I've seen about 5 DePalma films and this was by far the worst.

This movie was very entertaining, when I finished it I was surprised that 2hours40min had passed.

Even though I enjoyed and recommend watching it, the film was pretty shallow, don't expect to get a deeper reading out of it, because you might be disappointed.
I already knew what the end was before watching the movie, but I was very curious to see how it was going to happen, and I'm satisfied. From the beginning Tony Montana was decided to get "what was coming to him" and he didn't care about the price, in this sense the movie is great maintaining the coherence of the character.

The film is good for what it is, but I don't think it is even close to the best movies of the genre, personally Goodfellas is still my favorite.



(I'm looking forward to watch the 1932 movie)

How a man takes over a drug business and converts it into an empire. The struggle for power and the consequences on the flesh and the mind are reflected in our cuban illegal immigrant, Tony Montana; a likeable anti-hero that gets caught up in his hunger for power.

Absolutely love this movie.

So, so, so overrated. Why don't people talk about Goodfellas and The Departed as much as they talk about this movie?
