Scarface

Scarface was an excellent film and I can't believe Al Pacino could do that voice

I agree--it was very raw--Pacino was awesome in it.

Agreed. It's nearly intolerable, because of the language. It really kills the mood in any movie.

what he is a drug dealer not pre school teacher. if he wants to drop the f bomb every 10 secs then by all means.

c-dic..........you must forgive ghetto tough poor cuban immigrant thugs for their language........for some reason I don't believe Tony's parents sent him to the best of schools.

Good movie, but not great in my opinion.

For those of you who liked it cool but for the people who said it was bad for language. i agree with bardock He is an imagrant from cuba and he is a drug dealer whats wrond with it i dont even notice the f bomb any more i have seen it so much

I know what he is, De Palma just painted him into a really bad stereotype. It wasn't so much that I was offended by the word, because I'm not, it just loses alot of it's "ummph", when it's every other word in the script.

SCARFACE is De Palma's finest film post BLOW OUT. It's just about the ONLY American gangster film that can stand up shoulder to shoulder with anything that Coppolla and Scorsesse has had to offer...

Language aside...and if you're offended by anything that come's out of another person's mouth -bad breath excepted- then go and grow up...it pretty much pushes the MPAA's R rated standards by delivering some gloriously violent setpieces, a delicious nihilistic world view and some tremendous plot developments...

c-dic...........I see your point. I just think it made the film better that the character was played more authentically (beside Pacino's HORRIBLE cuban accent)..........I believe if you were to run into a real person like Tony Montana, he would speak exactly the same......the language I think just made the picture more realistic. Hell.......within a 3 hour period I say the word fuck more than Tony did in the flick.......I've got a real potty mouth.

scarface was highly overated. The movie was just an average gangster film that ran an hour to long. Pacino gave a great performance and if it werent for that i believe this film would have been long forgotten

i think it is one of the better films out there. i recommend people see it. if there is one film to not see it is monster that movie sucked.

I totally agree with ragesRemorse's comment. If Pacino wasn't in Scarface the film would have been long forgotten.

First of all, I wouldn't recommend either "Scarface" or "Monster" to anyone, because of the offensive subject matter.

"Monster" was superior to "Scarface", IMO, anyway. The truest serial killer movies made to date. The first of which, in recent memory anyway, that was actually based on all real life accounts.
