"Say Hello To My Little Friend!"

Rating: 8/10 (4 September 2004)

Back when Scarface first appeared on cinema screens, it was considered the most violent movie ever made. It's still one of the most violent movies i've ever seen, but compared to Kill Bill it's rather tame.
An update of the 1932 film, Scarface (1983) follows gangster Tony Montana and his close friend Manny Ray from their trip on the Cuban Boat Lift for refugees to their arrival in Miami. After killing a powerful Cuban figure, Montana and company gain the ability to leave their refugee camps and roam around the U.S.
After unsuccessfully trying to make it legitamately in the country, Montana and Ray resort to selling cocaine to dealers around the world. Tony's rise is quick, but as he becomes more powerful, his enemies and his own paranoia begin to plague his empire.
Al Pacino sets the screen on fire as Tony Montana. This other than The Godfather Part II, is his best movie yet. I suggest all of you check this movie out! It's quite an impressive piece of cinema history.
