That was an excellent one.

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

If you want to see a Cuban run the drug game then this is the best movie to do so. I absolutely loved Al Pacino in this role and he is a legend for it. I strive to be like him everyday.

As a Character, Scarface will remain timeless. His costume design and charisma makes him as memorable as the Godfather. But unlike The Godfather, Scarface feels much longer. If you are expecting a action packed gangster thriller. turn around. This film is predominately made up of Scarface going around talking about cocaine, doing cocaine, selling cocaine. So much cocaine. like a lot of cocaine. its very boring.

Al Pachino is one of the worlds greatest actors. He usually plays the tough guy, but it's how he plays that guy. It's different every time and he manages to find what makes each of his classic characters unique. Aside from Michael Corleone, Tony Montana is Pachino's most memorable role. This film follows the classic story of the rise of and of an American gangster in the same vain as The Public Enemy, Little Ceaser and GoodFellas. Montana's success is the American Dream gone wrong. Throughout the whole movie we as the viewer want Montana to succeed and fail. He's an awful person but he has his moments of heroism that make us still care about him. Director Brian De Palma and writer Oliver Stone made a film that broke down barriers and was not afraid to take risks. Pachino and the rest of the cast provide some classic moments and amazing Performances. Scarface is one of the most violent movies ever made and shouldn't be watched by the squeamish. But if you can handle the blood and guts, Scarface will leave you breathless my little friend.

While the story has been done before, since, and better, I can't deny calling this a classic, if not the movie that captured the 80s as a whole. If you've seen one movie like this, you've kinda seen them all. Guy wants power, guy gets power and then loses it, but it's the journey to get there that's important. Even though there are no real heroes here, aside from Gina and Tony's mom, you still root for Tony. Even as the power goes to his head, and he starts to think he can get away with anything, you still root for him. Even though you can see the ending coming a mile away, and you know no one is gonna come out of this tragedy in good shape, the movie's still engaging. Do I need to start quoting the movie? Or name off how many memorable scenes are in it? Or the impact it's had on pop culture as a whole? No, but what I can do, is applaud everyone involved, as they captured the tone and atmosphere, and politics of the 1980s like no other. I might like other movies from the 80s more than this, but I do believe that this is the movie of the decade. A macabre, ultraviolent, ultra-vulgar, tragic, tour de force.
