Editorial Review:
Amazon.co.uk Review:
Brian De Palma's update of the classic 1932 crime drama by Howard Hawks, Scarface is a sprawling epic of bloodshed and excess that sparked controversy over its outrageous violence when released in 1983. It's a wretched, fascinating car wreck of a movie, starring Al Pacino as a Cuban refugee who rises to the top of Miami's cocaine-driven underworld, only to fall hard into his own deadly trap of addiction and inevitable assassination. Scripted by Oliver Stone and running nearly three hours, it's the kind of film that can simultaneously disgust and amaze you (critic Pauline Kael wrote "this may be the only action picture that turns into an allegory of impotence"), with vivid supporting roles for Steven Bauer, Michelle Pfeiffer, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, and Robert Loggia. --Jeff Shannon
Rating:
- CLEAN DISC TRANSFER
I expect that if your buying this you'll know what its about so I'll review on the quality of the image if I may. Some films, especially older ones have a poor quality transfer onto DVD, though not this one. Colours and detail are first class, offering up a bright colourful image devoid of any nasties (blocking etc. If you've seen DVDs of the orignial Star Wars the picture quality is on a par with them.

- Some of Al Pacino's Finest Acting - and That's Saying Something!
Scarface is one of those films that you just have to see. The story of Tony Montana, a Cuban who after being refused entry to the US, manages to get a green card through a slightly less legitimate route (killing a man), and once in the US will stop at nothing to work his way to the top of an empire built on blood and cocaine. It is a tale of greed, power, ambition, money with a slightly moral aspect - possesions don't buy you happiness.
Al Pacino is incredible in this - the character ... Read More
Rating:
- real gangster
best actor(al)best directore(de palma).this movie is real gangster life,not like some movie, bank job or american gangster(so unreal and copy of scarface).
Rating:
- Riveting
Who can resist Pacino's cocky charm? One of the most exciting movies ever made. The most (unintentionally) hilarious part of the movie was the scene where Michelle Pfeiffer's Elvira character is dancing at the nightclub. She REALLY can't dance.
Rating:
- sheer brilliance
i remember watching this when i was 17 and i was blown away. al pacino's portrayal of a small time hood made big is a lesson to all wannabe smack dealers. it's only gonna' end one way.
review wise there is not a lot i can say apart from, best film ever, PERIOD
