One of my favourites, in all genres!

Rating: 9/10 (26 June 2007)

This film will always stand out as one of my favourite films even although there is a very long list of favourites.
One thing makes this the movie it is, Al Pacino. It wouldn't have been the same no matter who played, no America or Brit out there could have pulled off a Cuban 'Political' Refugee with so much class, Oliver Stone said that he made the film around Al Pacino playing Tony Montana and it was very well done indeed.
The story itself is nothing out of the ordinary, no twists or mysterious events, its just a straight down the line Gangster film which is very good to watch while at the same time absorbing Al Pacino's acting talents.
This is not something I have just watched, I seen it for the first time over 10 years ago but I am just getting around to commenting on it for the first time, I would like to think that the current generation have already enjoyed this movie though.
