Scarface 1983 Movie

Like most of the gangster films, Scarface is the first one from many years and some people didn't even know that it's actually a remake to the original B&W version. While I was thinking about this, it went on the whole new level with the violence for the most part because it's directed by Brian De Palma. I know he's not going to make a movie overly violent to get an NC-17. Al Pacino as Tony Montana is what everyone loves, his character is incredible with his Cuban accent and his dialogue. He has his friend, Manny and a younger sister and later takes over Frank Lopez' place and becomes addicted to cocaine. This is the first time that you'll see Steven Bauer and Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio in the film. I love the soundtrack in this movie. The soundtrack is awesome and amazing. It actually came before Grand Theft Auto III which is amazing. I love all the songs in this such as "Rush Rush", "Shake It Up", "Push It To The Limit" my personal favourite along with "She's on Fire" and "I'm Hot Tonight". If you forgot about that Scarface starring Al Pacino is the original version, think again. This is a remake to the B&W film from the 1930's. Scarface is the original film shot in B&W in the 30's and now you're looking at the ultimate gangster and I mean, the ultimate badass! Al Pacino does a great job as Tony Montana. He's unforgettable in this. "You wanna play rough? Okay. Say hello to my little friend!" "You know what I'm talking about, you f**king cockroach." And the script is great and it's written by the director Oliver Stone which is a surprising thought. He was Tony Montana. The world will remember him by another name ...Scarface.

God damn amazing! Scarface is probably my favourite movie, particularly one without nostalgia, as a number of the other favourites are movies I watched lots as a youngster. To each their own, but people actually find this boring? I cannot believe it! It's about three hours long, but there is never much time before an iconic scene, line, great acting, '80s extravagance, etc. The running time is required as well to see the character development in Tony. You don't see this in the 1932 original as it's a much shorter film. There is no actor better at getting apoplectic than Pacino which this film allows him to do a number of times.
