    Scarface is one of those special movies, like "The Godfather," that is willing to take a flawed, evil man and allow him to be human.

    A beautiful, at times poetic exercise in excess from Brian De Palma.

    It plays like a crude "Godfather" parody, the sort that might amuse as a 10-minute sketch on "Saturday Night Live," but curdles and collapses as a 143-minute film. [09 Dec 1983]

  1. I'm insanely in love withe this movie. I will say no more.. watch it. Whether you are shocked or dismayed and digusted.... well, it's awesome either way. I'm an adult, and was one at 18 when I first saw and loved it. We each have our own opinions. GAWD I LUV THIS MOVIE! Expand

  2. One of the most overrated films of all time. For people that set out to glorify this lifestyle, there are much better films out there to be attracted towards (Goodfellas, for one). There are times it comes across like it's begging to be parodied (how often do you hear "say hello to my little friend?"). Every now and then, Oliver Stone's script shines and Al Pacino does his best, but ultimately, I believe, it falls flat. Expand

  3. Scarface is the most damaging thing to Cuban culture since the missile crisis. Any who thinks of this movie as a classic must also believe Nickelback's Chad Krueger is God's gift to the world. If the Godfather had a retarded cousin that had a diet consisting mainly of paste and cat food, that would still appear as Harvard's Valedictorian compared to the ebomination known as Scarface. If you ever meet someone that honestly thinks Al pacino is the greatest actor of all time show them Scarface and if they still feel the same way try your best to remove that person from your life and forget you ever met them, because your brain cells are rapidly committing suicide by even having a conversation with this person. Every Aspect of this movie is so terrible that I have to void my bowels just thinking about it. Expand
